Talaash – A Search for Harmony in Humanity
Rhythmic Energy (RE) is a fusion orchestral ensemble which comprises of the students of Bhagawan’s Institute and devotees. The band spreads Bhagawan’s message of Universal Love through music. This year, on September 30, the band performed a musical drama programme, called Talaash – A Search for Harmony in Humanity, in Pune. This was the band’s debut in the city and, in fact, a type of programme it was putting up for the first time – a musical drama.
The programme was part of a regal evening – a tribute to the legacy of our beloved Bhagawan – at Ganesh Kala Krida Rangmanch at Swargate, Pune. The programme included talks by the Pune district president and the state president, Sri Ramesh Sawant. Prof. Anil Kumar was the guest speaker who spoke on the topic – Unity is Divinity. There was also a video presentation on Bhagawan’s projects and various eminent devotees expressing their gratitude to the Lord.
The thematic musical presentation, Talaash, was RE’s attempt to present a collage of three forms of art: music, drama and dance. And what transpired was a kaleidoscope of message, music and dramatics. In line with Prof. Anil Kumar’s talk, the drama was on patriotism.
But that was not all. At the end of the long evening, the members of the band were invited to play a few numbers – a musical crescendo. Rhythmic Energy concluded its debut in the beautiful city of Pune playing Gopala Radha Lola, Why fear I am here, Antharanga Sai, Heal the World, and the popular Brass explosion amongst other numbers.
It was the moment when everyone who had assembled there understood His words – When there is rhythm in your mind and you are in sync with ME, energy will automatically flow. Adi Rhythmic Energy…
