Ruhaniyat, the All India Sufi and Mystic Music Festival, was started seven years ago.
The festival since then has evolved into one of the most prestigious and much-awaited festival for the connoisseurs across the country. It will be held on Sunday, January 20.
In India, like in many other countries, number seven has mystical significance and is associated with transcendence and spirituality. The number seven is very significant for Ruhaniyat also.
This year, being the seventh year, the concert will be held in seven cities making it the biggest All India Sufi and Mystic Music festival ever to be held in the country. The other six cities are Delhi, Kolkata, Chennai, Hyderabad, Pune and Mumbai.
What makes Ruhaniyat such a sought after event is the fact that more than ever, the messages of Sufi saints and mystics seem to be relevant today, for they knew the secret of blissful existence amidst turmoil.
Naturally, their works abounding in wisdom and unconditional love not only act as a soothing balm but is also a timely reminder of the human capacity to evolve and give love.
A truly exotic line-up of mystics from remote villages to internationally acclaimed artists - Ruhaniyat surely is a not-to-be-missed event. A confluence of ecstatic performers, each a master of his or her own art, watching Ruhaniyat is like witnessing the yearnings of the mystics come alive.
The Festival will be held at the Bowring Institute of Bangalore, India
19, St Mark’s Road from 6.30 pm onwards.
