This composition by Ravikiran (composed in Aug 1997) is a pioneering expedition into the world of Schematic Swaraksharas. Every line of the piece starts with the lyrics matching the notes in a scheme of ascending sequence of the raga Shankarabharanam connecting to a common 6th note, Da. The openings of each line is: Sa-Da, Ri-Da, Ga-Da, Ma-Da, Pa-Da, Da-Da, Ni-Da and (higher octave) Sa-Da.
