Samadhi – Indian Music for Meditation [1 hour] Bansuri (Indian flute) Sitar Sarod Tabla

Samadhi is a state of total absorption in meditation that is the goal of Indian Music. For thousands of years, countless generations of masters have passed this sacred spiritual knowledge to their disciples.

Indian Classical music is based on "raga" which is a traditional form of melodic improvisation. The spontaneous exploration of all the variations of the melody can bring a performer into a state of samadhi or deep meditation where the music flows through them as if on its own. Ragas and Indian music can be thought of as a spiritual technology of meditation. Through disciplined practice, also called sadhana, musicians can learn to attain a state of samadhi when they play.

The music in this video was performed on bansuri (Indian flute), sitar, sarod, and tabla. Bansuri is a bamboo flute traditionally associated with the Hindu god Krishna. Sitar is a long-necked instrument with many strings that was made popular in the Western world by Ravi Shankar. Sarod is a fretless short-necked string instrument with a bridge mounted on a resonating membrane similar to that of a banjo. Tabla is a pair of small drums played virtuosically with the fingers.

Take a deep breath and allow this music to take you on a spiritual journey into a state of samadhi meditation. Or use it to inspire your yoga practice. The important thing is to show up for your own sadhana, in whatever form that takes.
