Music has become an integral part of life for almost everyone. The march of technology has made it possible for people to hear music constantly – while driving, walking, working, and caring for the family. Car stereos, walkmen and discmen, home sound systems and non-stop music in the workplace have made musical sound ubiquitous and accessible almost everywhere. It’s almost sensory overload, especially when we see people jogging or repairing our telephones while deeply aborbed in the the music coming through their headphones. But no music is as mystifying and as hauntingly beautiful as the Venu Gita. Srila Prabhupada writes in Chapter 35 of Krsna Book, “When He [Lord Krsna] plays, either in the morning or in the evening, all the demigods, including Lord Siva, Brahma, Indra and Candra, bow their heads and listen with great attention. Although they are very learned and expert, they cannot understand the musical arrangements of Krsna’s flute. They simply listen attentively and try to understand, but they become bewildered and nothing more.”
