You know, coaching our school’s tabla player for the inter-house music competition reminds me of my own SGFI finals long ago. The discipline in his wrist movements for the *theka* is not so different from a bowler’s run-up. Both need a steady rhythm in the heart before the first note is struck, or that first ball is bowled.

Ah, that rhythm in the heart you mention—so true. I see it in my students too, hands trembling swalpa before connecting the last wire in a circuit, that same quiet moment before action.

You are so right about the rhythm in the heart. I see it in the hospital too, swalpa, watching senior nurses prepare for a procedure—that same quiet moment before action.
