Pandit RaviShankar – the Sitar maestro..


I would like to share a story I have read..

Pandit Ravishankar was out for composing for a movie and nothing was happening for a couple of days. Panditji was out of mood and could not produce any tunes wanted. But the very next day, Ravishankarji came to compose afternoon at around 2pm and he appeared highly rejuvenated and in full energy. He was requested to share with the music mates what had happened to him.

Ravishankarji said he was playing Sitar from 4AM and stopped only after for 8 hours of intimate relationship with his Sitar. Then came to the room for composing with full zest. He didn't feel sleepy, tired.. He was out of mood initially because he could not play Sitar for a couple of days.

This story elevated me to a higher level and I later realized that if you involve completely in anything you love, you would never get tired; instead you will get more energy J

Also, we can make use of this valuable tip effectively in our lives. I have applied it to my life and found it very effective.

Make sure you do not go to bed tired(emotionally and physically) after coming back from work. So do something you love doing. This can be anything like reading, writing, listening to your favourite music, talking to your loved ones, playing cards, physical work out, etc and once you have regained your energy, then can you retire. This gives you a sound sleep and you can get up next day morning with a fresh body and mind.
