Real music is not for wealth, not for honours or even the joys of the mind... but as a path for realisation and salvation.
I was 16 when I got admission in Hans Raj College. I completed school when I was 16, so everyone in my class - Zoology Honours batch 92 - was 18, and I was often treated like a kid.
