Inspiration Philosophy
I see Carnatic music as a powerful tool for devotion and no different from the study of the Vedas, offering of Puja, etc in the pursuit of salvation. Look up to the great masters in the past to live up to the ideals and levels set by them for musicians in this field
Future Aspirations
Would intend to spread this music to more and more children from the next generation to make them good listeners and rasikas of this music, along with being performing musicians
