Holland-based Indian origin filmmaker Rishi Chaman, who had earlier made Bollywood Blues, is making a telefilm on Nada Yoga in Dutch and English. He says it is a modern, spiritual and musical version of the wellness technique where East meets West. Titled Nada Yoga The Secret Of Sound, the 28-minute movie will be telecast on the Dutch Hindu Broadcasting Network OHM. The word Nada refers to the physical, mystical, religious or cosmic sound. "The film will be relevant to watch because you will see how an ancient, secretive tradition in the East is translated to the West. The focus is on Acharya T. Jaimini, who teaches the authentic, demanding form of Nada Yoga to two of his students, which is confidential," says Chaman, 32, who was recently in Vrindavan to shoot the film. "In sharp contrast, a German, Tomas Meisenheimer, offers Nada Yoga in the form of a sound massage table to clients, who need a relief from their demanding careers. What is common between these two different approaches is that they offer the tradition of the yoga of sound that can help an individual gain peace of mind," he adds. Earlier, Chaman had directed Laxmi Calling Ling, Sapney and Itch and made documentaries on Indian artistes like Sonu Nigam, Asha Bhosle, Amitabh Bachchan and his son Abhishek. He collaborated with Delhi-based Anupama Jain for the telefilm Nada Yoga. "Anupama was able to persuade Acharya Trigunateet Jaimini, one of the great practitioners of authentic Nada Yoga, to participate in the film. Chaman adds. Jaimini is a sitar maestro and head of the department of music in Mangalayatan University, Aligarh, and his achievements on Nada Yoga are well known. According to Jaimini, "Indian music has its essence in a deep sense of spirituality, along with roots in yoga and Indian philosophy. The theme of the compositions is mostly devotional in nature and many of them also convey abstruse philosophical concepts in a form that is easy to grasp," he adds. IANS
