The beauty of the raga will not be marred by the time of the day it is sung. It is the psychological association with the time that goes with the mood of the raga. The object of a raga is to express a certain emotional mood and sentiment without any reference to time and season. For a student of classical music, this classification may give an idea as to how to base his reasons for the traditional usage of ragas.
Following are various ragas, their thaaths and the time the raga is usually sung...and the chants of Siddha Yoga which are based on these ragas. The feelings they invoke are taken from the jackets of cassettes and cds of theses chants..
