c3.s3.2
Translation.—If in the Iman Thata just described, the Ga coincides with the shuddha maddhyama and the dhaivata takes the place of the shuddha, nishada the scale produced would be the Saranga Thata.
c3.s3.3

In ancient music, two notes of the same denomination were not allowed to appear in the same scale. Hence the use of the atitivratama 'ga' for shuddha 'ma' The Saranga scale was to be formed from the Imam, and this last already had the tivra 'ma' in it
