The Guru Granth Sahib, the central religious scripture of Sikhism, contains 31 main raags (musical measures or modes) that provide a melodic structure to its hymns (Shabads). These raags are integral to Sikh devotional music and are used to evoke specific spiritual moods, emotions, and states of mind during worship. Each raag has its own unique melody, scale, and rhythmic patterns, and they are intended to guide the soul towards reflection and divine connection. The inclusion of these raags underscores the importance of music in Sikh spiritual practice and the harmony between sound and soul.
