The infinite possibility of the thought aspect of a human being, in conceiving the god, paves way for the Gnyaana Yogam

Vichaaram / Thought +++ Vikaaram / Emotion ---- Vivekaam / Prudence - Layam ==== Aaanandam
When there is a perfect harmony of thought and emotional aspect happens there emerges Aanandam
Like wise when there is a perfect harmony of Roopam and Bhaavam happens, there emerges the Soundaryam
Aanandam is the result of Zenith, or the layam of Vichaaram and vikaaram
Roopam +++ Bhaavam ---- Layam ==== Soundaryam

Sangeetham or music is derived from Sama Veda, one of the four Vedas with Rig, Yajur and Adharvana vedas being the other three.
The sweet forms of music and literature are believed to be the form of the Lord himself (swaroopamsa).
Music, when presented with devotion, transforms into yoga and through yoga mankind can attain salvation, according to Sootha Samhitha.
Carnatic music is unique with many features that cannot be found in any other form of music in the world. It comprises of raga, krithi or keerthana formats, neraval and swara-kalpana or improvisation of musical notes, and innumerable divine compositions by many great composers in many Indian languages.
The theoretical aspects of Indian music have been extensively addressed by Bharatha in his Natya Sasthra, Narada in Sangeetha Makarandam, Mathanga in Brihaddesi, Sarangadeva in Sangeetha Rathnakara, Vidyaranya in Sangeethasaram, Ramaamathya in Swaramelakalanidhi, etc.,
Carnatic music and dance have been a part of the temple culture of India. Many vaggeyakaras and musicians have been enriching the world with their valuable music compositions
