Hindustani classical music is based upon ragas and taals, each designed to affect different "chakras" (energy centers, or "moods") in the path of the "Kundalini". Vedic practice traces specific physical, Mental, Biological and spiritual results associated with activation of these centers.
Indian classical music has one of the most complicated and complete musical systems ever developed. It has the same aspects of Western classical music, as the 8 basic notes(Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Dha Ni Sa), in order
Types of compositions

Other forms include the Dhamar, Tarana, Trivat, Chaiti, Kajari, Tappa, Tapkhayal, Ashtapadi, Ghazal and Bhajan. Of these, Some forms fall within the crossover to folk or semi-classical ('light' classical) music, As they often do not adhere to the rigorous rules and regulations of 'pure' classical music.
The Raag
Raag, in the Sanskrit dictionary, is defined as "the act of coloring or dyeing" (the mind in this context) and "any feeling or passion especially love, affection, sympathy, vehement desire, interest, joy, or delight"। In music, these descriptions apply to the impressions of melodic sounds on both the artist(s) and listener(s). A raag consists of required and optional rules governing the melodic movements of notes within a performance. The rules of a raag can be defined by The manner in which the notes are used, i।e. specific ways of ornamenting notes or emphasizing/de-emphasizing them Manner in which the scale is ascended or descended Optional or required musical phrases, the way in which to reveal these phrases, and/or combine them The octave or frequency range to emphasize The relative pacing between the notes The time of day and/or season when the raag may be performed so as to invoke the emotions of the raag for maximum impact on the mental and emotional state of the performer and listener.
