Yes, Carnatic music can develop without devotional content, but its identity and core elements are deeply rooted in bhakti (devotion). While most traditional compositions are devotional, Carnatic music is ultimately a musical system, meaning it can evolve to include other themes while retaining its technical richness.

 

1. Can Carnatic Music Exist Without Devotion?

Yes, as a pure musical system – Carnatic music is built on ragas (melodic scales), talas (rhythmic cycles), and gamakas (ornamentations), which are independent of lyrical themes.

 

Instrumental Carnatic music already proves this – When performed instrumentally (violin, veena, flute), the focus is purely on the music, not the lyrics.
