Things to ponder

The Bols that are to be practiced in this Kayda are,

• Dha (धा): combination of Na and (Ghe or Ge). This is a bol that uses both hands. It is a combination of Taa and Ga. There are at least four ways to play this bol; however the two most common versions are the Delhi (Dilli) style and the Purbi style.
• Te Ta (तीट): (on the dayan) striking the center of the syahi with the middle finger first and then the index finger.
• Tin (तीं): (on dayan) placing the last two fingers of the right hand lightly against the syahi and striking on the border between the syahi and the maidan (resonant).
• Ge (गे): (on bayan) holding wrist down and arching the fingers over the syahi; the middle and ring-fingers then strike the maidan (resonant).
• Na (ना): (on dayan) striking the edge of the syahi with the last two fingers of the right hand.
• Ke (के): (on bayan) striking with the flat palm and fingers (non resonant).
• Ta (ता) : (on dayan) striking sharply with the index finger against the rim while simultaneously applying gentle pressure to the edge of the syahi with the ring finger to suppress the fundamental vibration mode.
• Dhin (धीं): combination of Tin and (Ghe or Ge). Dhin is a simultaneous playing of Ga and Tin. There are at least four different ways to play Dhin.

These Bols are then repeated as per the Bols of the Kayda.
