Due to music being subjective it’s is always challenging to design a study in a scientific perspective.

To eliminate the linguistic influence and associative vocabulary the study used an instrumental music specifically composed for the study. Method: The study was a prospective study which included four ragaas for a specific duration for specific period of time.
