गान्धार्यार्षभिकाभ्यां तु जातिरान्ध्री प्रजायते ।
षाड्जी गान्धारिका तद्वद्वैवती मिलितास्तिस्रः ॥१२॥
षड्जोदीच्यवतीं जातिं कुर्युः, कार्मारवी पुनः ।
उत्पादयन्ति नैषादी पञ्चम्यार्षभिका युताः ॥१३॥
नन्दयन्तीं तु गान्धारीपञ्चम्यार्षभिका युताः ।
गान्धारी धैवती षाड्जी मध्यमेति युतास्तिस्रः ॥१४॥
गान्धारोदीच्यवां कुर्युर्मध्यमोदीच्यवां पुनः ।
एता एव विना षाड्ज्या पञ्चम्या सह कुर्वते ॥१५॥
कुर्युस्ता रक्तगान्धारीं नैषादी च न धैवती ।
आर्षभीं धैवतीं त्यक्त्वा पञ्चभ्यः कैशिको भवेत् ॥१६॥
(iii) Saṁsargajā-vikṛtā (associate modified) jāti-s : (8-16)
The formations arising out of the association of the modifications are accepted¹ to be eleven. (8ab)
They are ṣaḍja-kaiśikī, ṣaḍjodīcyavā, ṣaḍja-madhyamā, gān-
dhārodīcyavā, raktagāndhārī, kaiśikī, madhyamodīcyavā, kārmāravī,
gāndhāra-pañcamī, āndhrī and nandayantī. Now I shall describe
their origins². (8c-10b)
Ṣaḍja-kaiśikī is formed³ by the combination of ṣaḍjī and
gāndhārī, ṣaḍjamadhyamā arises from ṣaḍjī and madhyamā,
gāndhārapañcamī is brought forth by gāndhārī and pañcamī, āndhrī
is born from gāndhārī and ārṣabhī; ṣaḍjī, gāndhārī and dhaivatī
jointly cause ṣaḍjodīcyavā jāti; again naiṣādī, pañcamī and ārṣa-
From the combination of the modifications of the śuddha jāti-s,
i. e., by the association of their modified forms come into being eleven
(and not more) formations called associate modified (saṁsargajā vikṛtā)

1. Literally, "as known from the tradition" (as known to collec-
   tive memory).
2. Lit. 'causes'.
3. Lit. 'is born'.
   Section 7 : Jāti-s (Melodic types) 275
   bhī together produce kārmāravī, while nandayantī is the com-
   bination of gāndhārī, pañcamī and ārṣabhī; gāndhārī, dhaivatī,
   ṣaḍjī and madhyamā all these associated together create gāndhā-
   rodīcyavā; these⁴ very (jāti-s) with pañcamī in the place of
   ṣaḍjī give rise to madhyamodīcyavā, and these⁵ with naiṣādī in
   the place of dhaivatī create rakta-gāndhārī. Kaiśikī is formed by
   five⁶, i. e. leaving aside ārṣabhī and dhaivatī. (10c-16)
   jāti-s. The text, since it is not explicitly worded, is open to a slightly
   different interpretation which would read : "Eleven (forms) are known to
   be produced by the association (i. e. combination) of the modified
   jāti-s.'s And by "modified jāti-s" are implied, according to this inter-
   pretation, the varieties of the modified forms of the śuddhā jāti-s. (8ab)
   (iv) जातीनां ग्रामविभागः
   चतस्रः षड्जशब्दिन्द्यो नैषादी धैवती तथा ।
   आर्षभी चेति सप्तेताः षड्जग्रामस्य जातयः ॥१७॥
   शेषाः स्युर्मध्यमग्रामे,
   (iv) The grāma-wise distribution of jāti-s : (17-18a)
   The four¹ having the word ṣaḍja (in their name), as
   also naiṣādī, dhaivatī and ārṣabhī---these seven jāti-s pertain to
   the ṣaḍja-grāma and the rest of them² belong to the madhyama-
   grāma. (17-18a)
   Now, the author is here relating the grāma-wise distribution of the
   eighteen jāti-s which is portrayed in the following chart along with the
   details of their combination :
4. i. e., gāndhārī, dhaivatī, madhyamā and pañcamī.
5. i. e., gāndhārī, naiṣādī, madhyamā and pañcamī
6. i. e., ṣaḍjī, gāndhārī, madhyamā, pañcamī and naiṣādī.
7. Out of eighteen, seven belong to the ṣaḍjagrāma.
8. The remaining eleven.
