Pujya Sri Swamiji camped at Mumbai from 24th of June at Devnar Ashrama in Chembur. In response to a long pending and fervent request by the devotees in Pune and Mumbai, Sri Swamiji gave "Nadamruta Raga Sagara" - Music and Meditation concert at popular venue Shanmukhananda in Matunga before a packed audience. This is for the third time such a programme was held. The beauty and richness was obvious when Sri Swamiji handled rare Ragas such as Latantapriya, Sachchidanandini, Yogini, Tapaswini, detailed expounding of popular Charukeshi and dancing tune. Audience were taken to a point of ecstasy to dance in fervour. The improvisation was just fantastic and appealing to all.

Mumbaikars had a feast of this kind of harmonic sounds. Pujya Sri Swamiji was in full control of the music and guiding audience. One could experience the bewildering versatility and genuine Bhava of Music in Swamiji. Yes, music of this kind is the answer for the present day stressful life. One must practice to listen to such kinds of meditation tunes to de-stress themselves. The program was well organised by Sri. Jayant Lapsia, Sri. Mohan, Sri. Somashekar, Smt. Annapurna Kashyap, Sri. Subramaniam and other committee members.
