In spite of many hurdles, how was Tansen able to prove the world that he was a great musician? What values could you learn from him?
Answers
Tansen used “Raag Megh Malhar” to bring rain. The conspirators in the court wanted to the see the downfall of Tansen. So, they induced Akbar to make Tansen to sing “Raag Deepak” which would light the unlit lamps in the court.
Tansen requested for 15 days of time and taught his daughter “Raag Megh Malhar”. She promised to sing this music inorder to bring rain. If she does not sing this, the fire will burn Tansen himself and that will make the conspirators to win.
He made not only the unlit lamp to burn but also the whole area to burn, including his body. His daughter by then started singing “Raag Megh Malhar” and brought the rain, cooled his body.
Akbar was very happy and showered him with lots of gifts and became closer to him than before.
The lesson we learn is,“If we are good, the deed which is done to bring our downfall, will help us to rise in our stature”.
One of the attempt made when the other court people says the akbar to listen the Saag Raag Deepak which can produced fire where performed . The tansen was worried as he was not able to disopey the king So, starts thinking about it. He taught the Raga mega malhar to his daughter which raag was able to bring rain. He performed in the presence of King with the Saag Raag Deepak while the daughter sing Raga mega malhar . This was the fire eruption stopped as the surrounding of the performer starts burn with help of rain.
The one thing is absolute lesson from this that if someone do the things honestly there is no way that the hurdles can make him change his paths.
