Translation.—When the Chala-vina is thus made shadja gramic the pitch of 'Sa' will be three srutis, that of 'ri' will be six srutis, of 'ga' eight sruti and so forth. By repeating this process another series of srutis namely, two, five, seven, eleven, fifteen, eighteen, twenty will be discovered. But the 'ga' and 'Ni' of the Chala vina will now coincide with the 'ri' and 'dha' of the achala vina. On another repetition of the same process, the swaras 'sa', 'ma', 'pa' of the chala vina will coincide with the 'ni', 'ga' and 'ma' of the Dhruva or achala vina.
