Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Music in ancient India, can be reproduced from written works dating to the Indian classical period, such as the Nātya Shastra, and through surviving examples of liturgical music such as the hymns of the Samaveda. Musical instruments dating to the prehistoric period have been recovered from archaeological excavations.

Prehistoric music

[edit]

Archaeological discoveries

[edit]

Musical instruments, such as the seven-holed flute and various types of stringed instruments such as ravanahatha,[1] cymbals have been recovered from Indus Valley civilization archaeological sites. Evidence suggests use of drum or dhol in the Indus valley civilization.[2] There have not been a lot of depictions of musical instruments from IVC, but contemporary BMAC civilization which traded with it has archaeological depictions of lyre and many cylinderical drums were also discovered from Indus Valley.[3] A kind of harp is also depicted in the chalcolithic cave drawings of India along with Gong.[4] There is also evidence of dancing figurines from Indus valley civilization suggesting an established musical tradition. A kind of lithophone has also been discovered from Orissa around 1000 BCE.[5]

Surviving music

[edit]

The Samaveda, one of the ancient core Hindu scriptures known as the Vedas, consists of a collection (samhita) of hymns, portions of hymns and detached verses, all but 75 of which are taken from the Rigveda. They were intended to be sung using melodies called Samagana whose musical forms are indicated. These hymns were sung by Udgatar priests at sacrifices in which the juice of the Soma plant, clarified and mixed with milk and other ingredients, were offered in libation to various deities. This memorization by Hindu priests of the sacred Vedas included up to eleven musical forms of recitation that could be used on the same text.

Nātya Shastra

[edit]
Main article: Natya Shastra

The Nātya Shastra is an ancient Indian treatise on the performing arts, embracing Indian theatre, early Indian classical dance and Indian classical music. It was written between 200 BC and 200 AD, during the classical period of Indian history. This text, which contains 6000 shlokas, is attributed to a muni whose name was Bharata Muni.

The Nātya Shastra is based upon a much older text called the Nātya Veda, which contained 36,000 shlokas.[6] No copies of the Nātya Veda have survived. Some scholars believe that it may have been written by various authors over a period of time.[7]

FILOSOFIA - Nuestra Palabra - Cuidado con los Profetas !!

 


FILOSOFIA 


               Nuestra Palabra

                                          Cuidado con los Profetas !!

        Voz de alerta en estos tiempos en que los Profetas proliferan como aves agoreras presagiando toda clase de calamidades . . . 

       El Cristianismo marca la etapa histórica de la desaparición de los Profetas para que florezca la Ciencia, porque hasta entonces, Ciencia y Religión eran atributos únicos del Profeta.

       Nadie, ningún mortal, tiene la facultad de predecir el futuro porque éste se hace cada día y hoy es el fruto de nuestro comportamiento de ayer.

       La Naturaleza tampoco tiende velos sobre el futuro, simplemente para ella no existe el futuro y las cosas suceden a tiempo, cuando deben suceder.

       Es arrogancia de ciertos humanos querer asomarse al futuro y predecirlo, como lo hacían los Profetas porque esa ventana donde pudiéramos ver el futuro no existe.

       Es enajenante poner atención a los Profetas del siglo. porque solo predicen catástrofes producidas por la Naturaleza o por seres terrestres o extraterrestres.

       Invitamos a los Profetas contemporáneos a ser optimistas y predecir, nada les cuesta, toda clase de bienes para nosotros los humanos y para nuestro Planeta ya que tendrán las mismas posibilidades de que acierten en sus profecías, con la ventaja de que llevarán , actuando así,  bienestar y descanso a esta atolondrada humanidad que le ha tocado vivir en este Siglo.

      El Profeta de hoy que predique Paz y augure para la humanidad del futuro Conocimiento, Armonía y Felicidad, para él, profetizamos  la bendición del que lo oiga.
