Raga Meditation with Jason Kalidas & Eartha Love

Presented as part of Darbar Festival 2026, Raga Meditation with Jason Kalidas & Eartha Love offers an immersive journey into mindfulness through the transformative power of Indian classical music. Combining guided meditation with live musical accompaniment, this unique session explores the relationship between sound, stillness, and focused awareness.

Acclaimed bansuri artist Jason Kalidas provides the melodic foundation through evocative raga-based improvisations, while Eartha Love guides participants through meditation supported by the continuous resonance of the tanpura. Together, they create a contemplative environment where music and mindfulness work in harmony to encourage relaxation, concentration, and emotional balance.

Drawing inspiration from the meditative qualities of Hindustani classical music, the session invites participants to slow down, listen deeply, and experience the calming influence of sustained melody and drone. Suitable for both newcomers and experienced practitioners, this event offers an opportunity to explore the connections among music, meditation, and personal well-being in a supportive, immersive setting.
