The chakras are subtle centers in the body (Corresponding to the nerve plexuses in the spinal cord) which channelise the psychic and spiritual energy lying dormant at the base of the spine (Kundalini Shakti). Because the upward movement of the energy is spiral when it is awakened, it is called serpent power. The correct balance and health of the chakras gives good health and a fruitful life. The Ajna Chakra is the centre between the eyebrows, and is called the seat of the guru. It is here that the sacred syllable Aum is situated. This is the centre where the mind is full of peace and stability. Since the three major nadis, ida, pingala and sushumna reconverge here, it is called the triple confluence of freedom (Mukta-Triveni). A balanced third eye chakra gives wisdom, discrimination and illumination, while disharmony in this sphere spells mental chaos, insensitivity and visual impairment. Bageswari is the raga associated with this chakra. The sensitively played music is this album will balance the chakra and bring charity of mind, incisive vision and peace. Pandit Pandurang Parate of the Tanaras gharana plays the deep sounding Surbahar in raag Bageswari to give you a deep, intuitive experience.
