Kalatit Baker has been studying meditation with Sri Chinmoy for more than 30 years. Here we bring you his musical masterpiece, "The Music of the Zodiac"

"The Music of the Zodiac" is a wonderful piece of music. Each sign has its own atmosphere, its own mood and expression, yet there is an underlying theme uniting all 12 movements.

In the words of the composer: "I had another goal; that the work taken as a whole have a larger shape; that it reflect my belief that the Zodiacal year is a metaphor for the spiritual journey; the progression of the individual consciousness from physical birth, through the emotional, mental and intuitive, to full flowering in the psychic. So beginning with Aries/Spring I traveled musically through the seasons, arriving, in the end, at the beginning, with rebirth in Pisces. the great Circle of Life. Universality was also important to me; that regardless of the style of music one might enjoy, they would feel spoken to. Everyone has a heart, so my approach was to write, to the best of my ability, music from and for this universal heart." -Kalatit Baker

We are grateful to Kalatit for this heartfelt work of art.
