Post by CHELLAM »

namaskaram
not sure if i should post under this forum
the nottuswaram by Dikshitar "santhana sowbhaghya lakshmi kalatram"
has "guruguha" mudra in the lyrics.
but when musicians sing they don't sing the mudra

is there a reason
thanking in advance

I don't find Guruguha in this:

santhAna sowbhAgya
raagam: shankaraabharaNam
29 dheera shankaraabharaNam mela
Aa: S R2 G3 M1 P D2 N3 S
Av: S N3 D2 P M1 G3 R2 S

taaLam: tishra Eka
Composer: Muttuswaami Dikshitar
Language: Sanskrit

santAna saubhAgya lakSmIkalatram sangIta sAhitamOdam pavitram kuntIsutAptam

Kindly see this site.

Adding GURUGUHAMUDAM will violate the Chandas (metre).

The notation in Tamil is given on page 43 in vol 13 of Dikshita Kirtanamala the mudra is included. In the Nottusvara book in English by M.R.Sanakaramurti the guruguha mudra is not there.
