Harivamsha Purana
The yati, prakarana, two types of geet, marg, avayava, padbhaga and pani are all determined by the matra, avidaya, ang, lay and गति. These are the 22 types of talagat gandharva. Thus, Vasudeva used all the aspects of the gandharva (tat) instrument, i.e. he played the veena accordingly. || 142 - 152 || There are seven types of swaras, namely 1. Shadja, 2. Rishabha, 3. Gandhara, 4. Madhyama, 5. Panchama, 6. Dhaivata and 7. Nishad. There are four types of using these swaras, namely vadi, samvadi, vivadi and anuvadi. Vasudeva used all these four types in order. || 153-154 || In the Madhyama grama, there is a samvad between the Panchama and Rishabha swaras, and in the Shadja grama, there is a samvad between the Shadja and Panchama swaras. || 155 || In the Shadja grama, the Shadja swara has four, Rishabha has three, Gandhara has two, Madhyama has four, Panchama has four, Dhaivata has two and Nishad has three shrutis. || 156 - 157 || In the Madhyama grama, the Madhyama swara has four, Gandhara has two, Rishabha has three, Shadja has four, Nishad has two, Dhaivata has three and Panchama has three shrutis. || 158 - 159 || Thus, there are twenty-two shrutis in each of the Shadja and Madhyama gramas, and fourteen moochchhanas are said to be formed by combining these two gramas. || 160 || Among these, the first is Uttarabhadra, the second is Rajani, the third is Uttarayata, the fourth is Shuddha Shadja, the fifth is Matsarikrita, 1.
