This book explores the life and legacy of Ustad Bismillah Khan, one of India's greatest musical legends. It delves into his profound connection with both his art and spirituality, exemplifying the secular nature of India's rich musical tradition. The story follows Bismillah Khan’s journey as he elevated the shehnai, once considered a humble instrument, to the heights of classical music, all while embodying the essence of both his faith and cultural heritage. Through personal reflections and experiences, the author sheds light on the sacred music and spiritual culture of Benaras, presenting the shehnai, the city, and the Ustad as inseparable entities. This book highlights how Indian classical music is not just an art form, but a spiritual way of life, showcasing the profound depth of Indian music and musicians.
