[@anthonymccarthy4164]

One of the most spiritual raag recordings I've heard.

[@ShuchitaRao]

Congratulations Jeff. I love the resonance of your wonderful instrument and also the time you take to build a meditative atmosphere of raga Jog. Must have been a wonderful treat for members of the audience!

[@rohanshivadekar]

Excellent recital. The audio quality is very nice

[@NancyKulkarni]

Beautiful rag-dari, played by a senior disciple of Ustad Z M Dagar.

I first heard the rudra veena in Sydney, Australia with Ustaad Asad Ali Khan many years ago - What an amazing sound from this ancient instrument! Thank you Jeff for being who you are doing what you do. You play with such skill - and I was really listening as I was doing a passive session of Orbital Yoga. I will listen to this piece again and again. Thanks!!

i got lost in the music in headphones, my neighbor had to text me to take the kettle off the stove

[@manogharletchimhnan9818]

OM Namah Shivaya.

[@indianmusicteacher.]

Nope, my music is dedicated to the mighty name of Jesus, my Savior!

[@jigggro]

Indian Music Teacher Shiva would have to be compatible with Jesus. It is after all the *Rudra* Veena.

[@NFah43Bk]

no salutations to the guru prior to the start???

[@indianmusicteacher.]

This video does not show the entire introduction...

[@indianmusicteacher.]

...and it's obvious that you don't know me. I am CONTINUALLY giving thanks to BOTH of my teachers. Amiya Gopal Bhattacharya AND Ustad Zia Mohiuddin Dagar. I hope that you can see their influence in my playing.

[@siddharthbhavsar91]

lucky to have learnt from Zia Mohiuddin Dagar, i did notice his influence
