A quick chat with master flautist Rakesh Chaurasia, Pandit Hariprasad Chaurasia's nephew, makes us realise how easy it is to connect with God. Just listen to music, he says. His new album, Meditation Music is a keeper for agitated metro dwellers

Meditation Music is a 3-CD pack with different music for different times of the day morning, afternoon and evening. How does this benefit meditation?
All Indian classical raagas are based on time. If you listen to the right raag at the right time of the day, for instance, Raag Lalit during the mornings, you will enjoy it a lot more. I was keen on incorporating this in my album to make sure people can enjoy my music to the fullest.u00a0

Why did you want to produce an album for meditation purposes?
Music is the easiest way to connect with God. And meditation also seeks the same. I decided to put the two together in the hope that it can be a calming tool and provide peace of mind. Our lives in the city are ridden with moments that bog us down u00e2u0080u0093 like driving or arguing with a rickshaw driver. This music can help the individual stay composed.
