Shuddha Dhanyasi It is a janya raga, a pentatonic scale derived from Kharaharapriya which is 22nd on the Melakarta scale. The scales of Shuddha Dhanyasi (Suddha Dhanyasi) are as follows : Aarohanam (Ascending) : S G2 M1 P N2 S’ Avarohanam (Descending) : S’ N2 P M1 G2 S Shuddha Dhanyasi has the same notes as Udayaravichandrika of the Dikshithar tradition. Though there are differences in inflections, the two are considered roughly the same. The mood of this raga ranges from deeply devotional, softly soothing to intensely romantic (especially in film music), depending on how it is used. Some well known compositions in Shuddha Dhanyasi are Narayana Ninna Namada by Purandaradasa, Enta Nerchina by Tyagaraja, Himagiri Tanaye by Muttiah Bhagavathar and Subrahmanyena Rakshitom by Muthuswami Dikshithar. Historical Background (Dr. V V Srivatsa): Raga Dhanyasi finds reference in medieval musicological texts. However, there came, in the course of time, some super-imposition and the ragas Dhanyasi and Suddhadhanyasi got mixed up. However, separation of identity was maintained to the extent that Dhanyasi was deemed as an Audava-Sampoorna raga while Suddhadhanyasi was an Audava-Audava raga. The scale of swaras sa-ga-ma-pa-ni-sa was considered the hallmark of Dhanyasi and several ragas with this Arohana pattern were deemed as Dhanyasi-genre ragas. Dhanyasi, as presently known, did exist in the period preceding the melakarta classification as evinced from some compositions of Bhadrachala Ramdas and Purandaradasa handed over from generation to generation. The nature of Rishabha and Dhaivata swaras and the Audava-Sampoorna structure did give this raga a distinct identity. Govindacharya deals with the lakshana of this raga and decides its classification under the 8th melakarta. Subbarama Dikshitar gives a lucid picture of this raga, reflective of its current nature. However, he deems it a Bhashanga raga derived from the 20th melakarta. At the same time, he expresses his unhappiness at such a classification. The compositions of the Trinity in this raga gave a boost to its popularity. It is a raga used widely nowadays with a vast repertoire. It is also one of the select 28 ragas with compositions of each member of the Trinity. It is also a raga used for mangalam and is an auspicious raga.
Welcome your understanding, it is correctly rendered, probably script in two lines, getting confused, it is because of space constraint, and better reading of words. Kindly share with many A like minded. Thank you.
