### [c6.301](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.gangoly-1935.c6.301)

This list is quite distinct from the system of six rāgas and thirty-six rāgiṇīs. The author cites two different systems of ‘six-rāgas’, one according to the school of Hanumān, and the other according to the view of Rāgārṇava. He also cites the view of Someśvara on the time-theory of the melodies. The chapter ends with a series of descriptions of the six rāgas, and thirty rāgiṇīs, according to the school of Hanumān, together with prayer-formulas (dhyānas) for each of the melodies described. The prayer-formulas of some of the uparāgiṇīs,not given elsewhere, are cited by the author.
