Healing touch

Famed jazz musician ‘Sonny’ Rollins is a living legend. Born in New York City in 1930, he began his career at an early age, studying the piano and alto saxophone from the age of 11 and eventually taking up the tenor saxophone in 1946. He has recorded and performed with Parker, Powell, Thelonious Monk, Miles Davis, Bud Powell Fats Navarro Tommy Potter, Ron Hayes and many other jazz greats. In 1957, he withdrew from public eye to tackle his long fight with drugs. Between 1969 and 1971 he spent much of his time in India and Japan. In 1968 he spent five months in Swami Chinmayananda ashram where he developed an interest in Eastern philosophy, religion, yoga and meditation. He studied Zen Buddhism in Japan and has pursued spiritual studies. Guru Swami Shiva Nanda made him understand that music is the healing touch. Rollins speaks to Anjali Sharma.

How did you get interested in Eastern philosophy, religion, yoga and meditation?
Well that goes back a long way. I was always a spiritual person, I think. I was brought up as a Christian in the USA. During the most impressionable years, I was confronted with dilemmas, making me search for something that would allow me to understand the meaning of life. It was during the search that I became acquainted with Eastern religions and I became attracted towards yoga. I came across Swami Shivananda’s books on yoga and I also came across a book by Paramhansa Yogananda. The book inspired me to visit India to find teachers who would guide me in the correct path.
You were in India between 1968 and 1971.
I ended up going to an ashram outside Mumbai called Powaii, which was owned by Tara Cultural Trust. There was Swami Chinamaya Nanda’s ashram to which I was guided by people I met on the way to India. Unfortunately Paramhansa Nanda passed away before I arrived. I made many friends in India and got along well with the Europeans, Americans and people from Brazil living there. I studied with Swami and other devotees and attended a couple of lectures. I travelled to Aurangabad and I had the opportunity to visit Calcutta. I spent most of my time in Powaii at the ashram, where I learnt Karma yoga, which gave me a sense of direction.
On arriving in the US, I felt useful. During the stay a group of people became interested in my music. One of them was Neeranjan Javeri, who wanted to have a jazz festival. He invited me back to a ‘jazz yatra’ in 1971.
When I was at the ashram (during his first visit), I performed jazz solo for the devotees. My wife had different thoughts. She was not into yoga or philosophy.

Are you in touch with your teachers?
I didn’t take a spiritual name. But my efforts paid off when my guru visited the US to lecture at St Peter’s church in mid-town Manhattan through a jazz pastor Rev. Ganzell.

The world has become materialistic, don’t you think? Do you have a message for readers in India?
I think the world has always been materialistic. There are always positive and negative sides and that’s what makes the world what it is. I don’t question that. I didn’t like the materialistic side of life and that’s why I went to India and wanted to find out the meaning of life.
Yet, there is no doubt that there is another side to the materialistic aspect. I was born for whatever reason and the goal is to become a positive person.
My message is simple. I found out that one can become more spiritual, more like Buddha or Patanjali. I am not here to tell people to go my way.

What do you think of the jazz scene in New York, especially at Lincoln Center?
Jazz is a spiritual experience because it’s spontaneous. It’s just like nature. The sun comes up every day but it looks different. Then there are rains, snowfall, etc. There is always an underpinning for normalcy. Jazz, like some trees, changes colour.

Do you have plans to return to India?
I would love to visit India even if my wife didn’t appreciate it back then. I lost my wife (was married for 45 years) a couple of years ago. I always recall the great times I had in India, the many books I studied with Swami Shivananda and he had his disciple Swami Vishnudigam Nanda, who came to the United States and established an important yoga organisation. When I go to India I am spiritually enlightened. When I visit Japan, I want visit shrines, to feel the spirit of Buddha.

Thoughts of going to Dharamshala?
I have been busy working, trying to establish a career in music. There was a time when I hung around people to learn new things. Times have changed.
Perhaps when my career is going through a lean phase, I will go to a peaceful place like this. My guru swami Chinmaya Nanda once told me that mediating would be playing the horn. I am not seeking to be in a group or to find a place to be quiet or anything of that sort.

Have you thought of performing with Indian musician like Ravi Shanker, Zakir Hussein and other great artists?
I have met some of them. I also like violinist L Shankar. I like Ravi Shankar, to whom I have listened often. I wish somebody would get the two of us to be on the same stage.
I also like Bismillah Khan, the Shehnai player. I used to listen to his music. In the 1960s I was present at a Bismillah Khan concert.

How did you land up in Calcutta?
I was getting ready to come back to the US when opportunity came knocking. I had been in India for four and a half months. I had the opportunity to visit Calcutta with Swami. The visit was short.

Do you like Indian food and what’s your favourite dish?
(Laughs) Well, I liked those round balls that are deep fried.

Samosa? Potatoes with green peas and herbs?
Oh, I love that. I went to some spiritual meeting of Satya Sai Baba. There were yummy samosas.
