Click for a larger image of the cover of Chants to the Sun and the MoonHarish Johari draws upon classical Indian compositions in his meditation music for the early morning and evening hours. Traditionally, these compositions, called ragas, facilitate meditation and the development of the listener through the effects of sound on consciousness.

The music is inspired by nature, reflecting the sounds of birds, insects, rivers, and wind, which change in quality depending on the hour of the day. Ragas also imitate temple gongs, whose tonality is altered by daily changes in temperature and atmospheric pressure.

The cycle of the day is similar to the cycle of life. Each hour represents a different mood - a different state of being. Listening to music that is synchronized with the sympathetic overtones of the season, time, and hour of the day makes us flow in harmony with our natural environment, saves energy, regulate our moods, and enhances our enjoyment of life.

Compositions planned and designed by Harish Johari and directed by Jagdish Mohan.

DISK ONE

ATTUNEMENT AT DAWN

Disk one includes Flute for Dawn, ideal for meditation before sunrise, and Tambura for Morning Meditation, which can be played in the early hours following sunrise. These compositions produce a very tender, calming, and refreshing meditative mood that helps us step out of sleep and into a harmonious waking state. If heard at dawn and during the early morning for at least forty days in a row, they serve as healing agents and increase personal magnetism.

DISK TWO

ATTUNEMENT AT DUSK

Disk two includes Flute and Bird for Dusk, incorporating actual bird calls that, in nature, announce the close of day. This composition inspires feelings of joy, confidence, satisfaction, inspiration, and the calmness of moonlight. Listening to it improves mental and physical health and relieves stress. The droning sound of the tambura in the final piece, Tambura Evening Meditation, has sympathetic overtones that subtly influence the nervous system. This composition produces a meditative mood and brings about improved mental and physical health. It is based on Raga Bhupali, a raga of cosmic movement that expresses harmony and contentment, perfection, satisfaction, and devotion.
