Definitions
Any of various melodic forms used in Indian classical music, or a piece of music composed in such a form.
Word origin
Borrowed from Sanskrit राग (rāga, “dye, colour”).
Used in a sentence
“‘The song is composed in a raga appropriate to the present hour, which is the evening.’”
“The conditions of asmita, raga, dvesha, and abhinivesha have a physical basis: they function to inhibit the normal pulsatory rhythms of the physical body.”
“We get tired of the slipping and sliding between raga and dvesha and we seek something more permanent - so instead of looking outward we begin to look inward. This is Yoga - the heart of Yoga.”
