Subject: Re: [INDOLOGY] help with meter

Pingala’s codes give the following scheme:

v - v / - v v / v - v / - v - / = 12
v - - / - - v / - - v / - - /     =  11
- - - / - - - / v - - / v - - /   =  12
- - - / - - v / - - v / - - /     =  11
                                         46

Best wishes, Asko

Dear friends,

Has any of you encountered a meter with the following structure:

a: ja bha ja ra
b: ya ta ta ga ga
c: ma ma ya ya
d: ma ta ta ga ga

Quarters c and d correspond to vaiśvadevī and śālinī, but a and b I cannot identify in Apte, though b seems a variation of śālinī with the first syllable laghu.

Any help appreciated.

Best wishes,
Aleksandar
