I have loved the Sitar since I first heard it on The Beatles "Rubber Soul" album in 1965. Then the Fabs again used it on "Revolver" possibly to greater effect. George though declined to play the instrument as he felt he simply wasn't good enough. Here is someone who is. Daughter of the legendary Ravi Shankar, George's good friend and sister to Norah Jones, the wonderfully talented Anoushka Shankar. I often puzzle over the word 'spiritual' as I find it smacks of something suggesting it is mystical or magical. I prefer the word moral or perhaps Being as I feel spiritual is a poetical word that describes my connection to everything. But as I have often said, words are human-made so, therefore, have to be accepted as having different meanings to different people. This music is poetry so may indeed be spiritual. I have no bones to pick about that for it is a joy to hear.
