These are so emotional moments. Can't stop tears. He knew he is leaving the world behind. You can see in his eyes. The Sitar, the stage, people's love, everything. So humble and great soul. We Indians owe you for your birth here. We need more of such personalities to make this world worth living.

One of the favourite childs of mata Saraswati, paid one last tribute to the goddess before going back to her lap. Musicians don't die, they just stop performing live for earthlings.

The day Ravi Shankar died, Dec 12 2012, I was in Venice for a philip glass's concert. He dedicated the whole soiree to Ravi, and gave a great speech. It was so beautiful and heartbreaking.
@johnsrabe
I am an idiot for not seeing Ravi Shankar perform. I had opportunities - including this concert - and did not make it a priority. If there’s someone you adore, who speaks to you, go see them perform, and often if you can. You will not regret it ever.

A man who broke the mold and introduced Classical Indian music to the west. So many of his peers hated him for this sacrilege.
@mrmozaffari
I'm not an Indian but I'm really touched by his music, art, and emotions. We all die sooner or later; it is inevitable. Being good is not enough because all the people around you will die too, and after a hundred years, no one will remember you. Leaving something beautiful behind, like what Ravi did, will be eternal and always remembered.

I saw Ravi Shankar perform in Ottawa, Canada. After that concert I was embarrassed to call myself a musician.
@ayushzaveri8193
He was 92. I have no words.
@aminrodriguez4707
Oh man, I am here with my 10 year old son explaining who was Ravi Shankar and what it means to be a HUMAN, a decent one, what dedication means, love for your craft, etc while we both cry. Godspeed Pandit, Gods smile when your name is uttered. Blessings.
@MisterCrabs-mg6gq
He taught me something I'll always remember- musical instruments must be respected as they are an extension of the spiritual realm. It was once popular to burn guitars on stage or smash instruments around. Ravi was firmly against this and explained it in his quiet, gentle manner.
@abhimanyunamita4779
It felt So heartbreaking and blessed at the same time. Never saw anyone in my whole life who performed in a stage in such condition. He really worshiped music. It's a lesson for today's generation. If tear came out of your eyes, you are blessed...
@babyanikaofficial
I don't know why i got tears 😢❤ Son of Saraswati Maa ❤
@lbazemore585
What a Divine Ambassador he was! This music still speaks this truth!
@kylecarol7294
It's been almost 10 years, my fascination for string instruments grew into obsession. I am set to learn sitar as my next instrument. The more I accepted music, I grew closer to the roots, Indian classical. Watching pandit Ravi shankar I finally understand what it means to be blessed by Maa Saraswati. I am in quite a turbulent time in my life. I beg your blessings.❤ I want to move forward.
@subramanianganesan3268
I don't for once think he had any feeling of leaving behind anything, rather I believe they are tears of joy and gratitude for a life well lived and having been an instrument of joy to the world & to moving ON
@matiosmi137
Truly amazing to see a musician in his 90s still performing with such dexterity. The world will remember, Mr Shankar ...
@Chauhan_Arun87
That's the wholesomeness when you know your journey is ending exactly as per your trajectory. An accomplished journey and few more moments to show ur gratitude. What a LIFE
@DiGi-pm2ng
He has left a wonderful daughter and shishyaa behind... He must have felt relief for that
@sanilthomas7
1:47 I couldn’t control my tears here. God bless his soul. We need more legends like him.
