The rudra veena is one of the most ferociously difficult instruments to play, kids. But one thing which you should know is how to approach God through music.
It's a strange thing music. And even stranger when it's coming from me, the tone deaf noisy dad of yours. But if you get a chance, listen to bhajans and devotional music kids. Doesn't matter which devotion. Or religion. Could be gregorian chants. Could be Sufi chants. Could be Sufi drumming. Could be dhols of Durga pujo. Anything. The fact that it's faith makes these songs and music a cut different from normal songs.
Quite amazing. I've seen people sitting and listening to recitals and have tears streaming down their eyes in bhopal. I'll take you to Bharat bhavan, a performing arts place which oversees the lake. Some of the evening concerts are magical with the sun setting over the lake. Totally mind blowing.
How I wish I could describe it better kids.
Love
Baba

Found among the papers of Leslie Shepard this article on the Indian holy man and musician Dattatreya Rama Rao Parvatikar (1916 - 1990). Shepard refers to him as Sri Ramdatta Parvatikar. The article appears not to have been published. For more on Shepard follow this link to an earlier piece of his on Charles Fort.
