So nice of you. You know science is a never ending journey requiring many equal minded persons to come to any conclusion. This is just the thought, a small beginning towards finding a truth in jawari mechanism. Even if it arouses some positive idea to somebody my efforts are fully paid.

I will keep in mind the idea of sarangi tuning sessions.

Excellent analysis on jawari by Dr Kashyap.
Many years earlier I had seen a demo in Music academy by, I think, Dr.B.C.Deva. He was, if I remember right, an official of Central Sangeet Natak Academy. His article were also published in the Academy journals. The event happened at such a remote time that I can only hazily remember what he explained. There were diagrams of the cross section of the thread at various positions in the article. Can somebody enlighten me as to his analysis and what Dr Kashyap says ?
