But these intervals as such remain theoretical. They are actually sung only as increments of other larger intervals.¹ There is no case in any Rāg where two notes are separated, for instance, by the Comma of Didymus. That interval represents the difference between the two major Sixths (A and A♯), or between the major and minor Tone (D and D♭). But both notes (A and A♯, &c.) do not appear in the same Rāg; the Rāg contains the one or the other.
