There is a belief that the seven ‘#swaras’ in the Hindustani Music were conceived from the sounds of the nature. The seven swaras as we all know are- Sa, Re, Ga, Ma, Pa, Dha, Ni. ----------------------------------------------------------- षड्जं वदति मयूरो गावो रम्भन्ति चर्षभम् अजाविके तु गान्धरं क्रौञ्चो वदति मध्यमम् ३ पूष्पसाधारणे माले कोकिलो वक्ति पञ्चमम् अश्वस्तु धैवतं वक्ति निषादं वक्ति कुञ्जरः ~ Naradiya Shiksha (1.5.3; 1.5.4) Naradiya Shiksha (1.5.3; 1.5.4) Explains That Each Sama-svara Was Derived From The Sounds Made By A Bird Or An Animal In Its Appropriate Season. For Instance; The Peacock’s Cry Was Shadja (Sa), The Bulls Roar Was #Rishabha (Ri), Sheep-goat Bleat Was #Gandhara (Ga), Kraunchaka’s (Heron) Cry Was #Madhyama (Ma), Koel’s (Cuckoo) Melodious Whistle Was #Panchama (Pa), The Neigh Of The Horse Was #Dhaivata (Dha), Elephant’s Trumpet Was #Nishadha (Ni). So Next Time You See These Animals, Remember Which Indian Notes They Produced. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Like ✓ Comment ✓ Share ✓ & Tag Your Friends✓ --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #sa #re #ga #ma #pa #dha #ni #swara #saregamapa #indianclassical #classicalmusic #satsura #saptak #samaveda #mythologicalfact #music https://www.instagram.com/p/B31WhWSHoXj/?igshid=ky4u3x4z3s7m
