Bhava – the soul of expression in music, dance and literature. Raga bhava is patent in the music of those persons who sing or perform the phrases and sancharas characteristic of the ragas with their correct shrutis, relavant gamakas and touches. The melodious treatment of the apt phrases reveals directly the individuality of the ragas. A person playing the raga on a fixed-toned instrument like the piano or the harmonium can at best reveal the outline or contour of the raga and not its real bhava. A person’s music may be accurate from the point of view of its raga and tala but still it will fail to impress us, if it lacks the essential element of the bhava.

Nada – is musical sound. The whole subject of music relates to nada. Nada gives rise to shrutis, and these give rise to svaras and these in turn give rise to ragas.
Nada admits of the divisions: Ahata and anAhata. The nada that is heard without the conscious effort of a human or other being is anAhAta. The nada produced by the conscious effort id Ahata.

Nada:(continued)
AnAhata nada is music of the spheres, music of Nature and includes the nada emanating from the mUlAdhAra part of the human body. All these are audible only to yogis. Tyagaraja, the great nada yogi of recent times refers to the greatness of the mUlAdhAranada in the first caraNa of his krti “svararAga sudhA”. The cognizance of anAhata nada is the object of yogopasana. The anAhata nada being devoid of aesthetic beauty does not afford pleasure to the mind. Hence Ahata nada which gives pleasure to the mind is studied. The science and art of music as practiced in this world and as cultivated in Heaven relates to Ahata and admits of the threefold divisions: gItA, vAdya and nrtya.
These explanations are by P.Sambamurti.
