[@Music-ge8gk]

I like to think that most of our music (from South Asia) is cyclical (similar to our ancient philosophy). The beginning is gentle, with the music evolving like opening flower petals one by one, growing as it evolves, blossoming to full potential and then towards the end slowly reaches a peaceful almost meditative conclusion, with enough of the smell of the flowers lingering in your soul for the longest time. Both the beginning and end are gentle blends into the eternal flow of the universe.
