Love,The emotion that
is the
source and ustenance
of life can
refer to a diver-
sity
of feelings from
erotic
to spiritually sublime. Love
is
what transcends death.
It is
one of
the most comm-
on themes in the
creative arts. Love like mu
sic is a
universal language. |
|
Peace,A state of tranqu-
ility free
from stress or turbulence of any
kind reflecting perfect harmony
is a
condition both love and water seem
to aspire for. Ancient religions like
Hinduism, Buddhism, Christianity
and Islam be-
lieve that peace can be
attained when all strife and suffering
end. |
|
Water, One of the five classical
elements conside-
red a purifier in
most religi-
ons is where life began
and
it creates sublime primal music
as it moves continu-
ally through a
cycle of evaporation, precipitation,
rain and runoff. The ‘Watercourse
Way’ mirrors human love and life
in speaking silently in its various
manifestations from gentle ripples
in a small puddle to gigantic tidal
waves, from effervescent bubbles to
eternal unfathomable ocean roaring
majestically. |
|
| The endeavour in the festi-val will be
to interpret one universal language
through the other. |

"Dear Friends at the Raasrang World Flute Festival,
Sorry I can’t be with you on this occasion but I hope
you will enjoy the delicate and passionate sounds of
the world’s second most ancient musical instrument!
Played by some of the world’s most ancient
musicians, like James Galway, Ian Anderson and, of
course, dear Hari-Ji.
But age (and beauty) can join together with youth,
vigour and the next generations of flute-players,
whether Classical, Jazz or Folk-inspired. Hear it all at
the Raasrang Fest and let the sounds of nature come
alive!
Sincerely," |

Nidhivan ke raaski, bhakton ke pyaaski Anant prem madhuri, bajao Shyam Bansuri” |
