Friends, just look at the Raga Megh based raga named “Piharva Azhu Na Aaye”. In this the woman is waiting for her husband to return. She says feeling scared. Dark clouds have gathered, lightning is flashing. Rain drops have also started falling. The husband has settled abroad and has not yet returned. This is a spiritual story only, not a physical one. Here the wife is the soul, the husband is God. God is far away i.e. abroad. Sometimes both were together, but with time they separated. Black clouds mean darkness of ignorance looks scary. If lightning is flashing, it means that sadness producing thoughts like lust, anger, etc. are running in the mind. Just as lightning can kill a man, so too can unresolved lust. Meaning that lust can cause a man to be reborn. And it is self-evident that a living being will be reborn only if it first dies. Rain drops have started falling, which means tears have also started falling from the eyes due to sadness.
This is the real movement and picture of the soul, which is depicted in the raga. This is a scientific fact, not a fantasy. This is spiritual psychology. This is also similar in the physical life too. In fact, when the head of the family reaches home, there is light all around. Dark defects like disappointment, sadness, hopelessness, lack etc. disappear for some time. Meaning, ragas have double meanings. Those who make and sing them must be no less than saints. On similar lines, Kundalini Yogis also strengthen the picture of Guru, God etc. in their mind, which is like the hope of husband coming home. While remembered, he may even return home in the form of Kundalini awakening. Further, it depends on the kundalini yogi whether he is able to keep him tied to the home through regular sadhana or gives him a chance to go far away and abroad again through uncontrolled behavior.
Similarly, “Aajhun na aaye piya, aali (friend) mori, woh na aaye, tum/piya bin Raina katat na, aajhun na aaye piya”. This raga is in Khayal, sung by Adrija Basu. This raga is about a quarter of an hour long, and the same lyrics are used with ups and downs throughout the raga. In the last five-ten minutes, there are some words of Shiva praise like “Salalal Hilat/kilat Ganga, Jatajut Vyal (Serpent)”. This also proves that most of the ragas are based on the same theme of Kundalini Yoga. Very beautifully sung raga. In this, every effort has been made to prolong a single breath and to give deep ups and downs to the note associated with it.
