Raag Suhi (ਸੂਹੀ) – Suhi is an expression of such devotion that the listener experiences feelings of extreme closeness and undying love. The listener is bathed in that love and genuinely learns what it means to adore.
Raga Suhi was favoured for religious events and is found in many ancient articles on music. Suhi is a rare but popular concert raga today and is considered[by whom?] one of the most famous from among the North Indian classical system. It is traditionally performed at sunraise. Guru Nanak, Guru Amar Das, Guru Ram Das, Guru Arjan and Bhagats have composed sacred hymns (Shabads) to be accompanied with this raga. It accompanies about 143 Shabads.
