A.R Rahmans Mysterious Magic
This article is an attempt to reveal the mystery in music...
though this article is more related to A.R.Rahmans music,this could also apply all the people who work magic with their music....
As everybody says...you have to listen a couple of times or more to enjoy rahmans music....this is so common i hear it every time a rahman album releases...
this is definitely true...but the point which has been haunting me was....if we could not like it in the first few times then how does rahman picks up a tune, composes a song and incubates until the birth of a complete song.... may be rahman is more knowledgeable in music and has better ears for all sounds...this jus resolves the mystery of why rahman is a great composer and may be to a certain extent how could he pick a tune when it strikes him...but this answer still has not solved the mystery of why we don't like it in the first few times and latter we love the same thing.....
this question itself ensure the plane which rahman composes the music and the plane in which we listen to music are different...
on analyzing these two different different planes there are some important conclusion
Rahmans Working plane...
1.) He is not governed by his likes and dislikes (Rather experiments more with all his thoughts)
2.) He has renounced the expectations of the fruits of his actions or else he would have stepped down a level and composed his music in the planes we live
The above points are followed by people who have self-realized himself.
So it is the process of rising from the the plane we listen to plane we reach rahmans plane that takes time...
all of us are covered by ignorance which closes ourselves from opening our minds and it is the knowledge that removes the ignorance to see a bigger picture of life...rahmans music in the sameway erases our ignorance in music.....
Have you ever felt this...moment while listening..??
After listening to rahman's music for four or five times you suddenly say "oh God i am going to like this song from now on....how did i not like this song till now"
that is when your ignorance has been removed by knowledge...it is a magical moment i cherish for all rahman songs.....That particular moment is analogous to a spiritual experience(not religious)
Hats of to rahman for raising us to such a level.
