Seeking peace, joy we find the opposite inching closer… so many questions, so much chaos, such turmoil! Battered heart wonders where to find solace..
The great realized masters, they say, knew the secret of living blissfully amidst all turmoil and gloom. Their immortal works are said to be ‘Open Secrets’ of living in the world and yet remaining beyond its stifling clasp.
TCS Ruhaniyat, a unique festival of mystic music, brings alive such works for music lovers in 8 different cities of India and it is back for the 22nd year with the messages of such great masters once again.
