Good music is that music, which never really ends.
That music which is forever - music which plays on, even when its source is gone - is'nt that true ?

Tagore and Jasraj - A Classical Classic !
Here is a beautiful video song. The lyrics to this song were penned by Rabindranath Tagore, while the song itself is sung by the maestro - Pandit Jasraj.
The song is about a gathering of minds, about knowledge, about working for your motherland, and most importantly - about 'working for the perfection of the spirit of man and a universal humanity'
A song with meaningful lyrics, excellent music and a great vocal. The video is not bad either. Check it out.

Indian classical music !
I truly enjoy many kinds of music !!
You tend to enjoy the different genres when you are in different moods. Sometimes you enjoy the light-hearted melodies, and sometimes you enjoy some funky pop. There are times when the old songs bring back memories or times when the metallica numbers that gives you an adrenaline rush. Or then some earthy down-to-earth numbers gives you that tranquility tranquilizer ! And so many more !
But all these forms of music tend to "interfere" with your mind. Some make you feel good - some make you sad. Some bring you to an energetic mood - others that sooth you. But all of these influence you in some way.

What makes the classical indian instrumental music so different, is that the music is so pure !
It does not say to you, " hey get up and be happy" nor does it say, "dude, get in a romantic mood " There is no "this world is such a *** place and i m a so angry" nor any " dude this is coool ! ".
It just is so open to your own interpretation - whatever way you want to interpret it !!
This kind of music is like a 'tool' that you use when you are thinking about something - The same music can be interpreted in so many ways, depending on the mood you are in, what you are thinking about, and so on and so forth.
It is really magical in the sense that this is "true" music !
The music is not trying to fool you ! It is not getting you into some desired state of mind - this music is just helping you to rythm up your real thoughts .

Magic of Music
These are one of the moments that are so intoxicating - You are just going about with your humdrum existance, the usual rigmarole and suddenly you listen to this perfect piece of music which just strikes some chord. You feel like everything has started to make more sense than before. Everything seems different. Everything seems a tad more beautiful. I dont know to explain the feeling - Just that the affect that some good music can have on the mind - is just magical !
