Selected source interpretation. Phrase examples are labelled where a fixed straight scale would misrepresent the account. Artist versions may differ. Source-listed, not expert-reviewed or recording-approved. Seasonal flexibility applies during the monsoon only; no year-round daily window is asserted. These are introductory outlines; phrases, ornament and tradition give a raga its identity.
