🌱 1. What Are Sarali Swaras?

Sarali Swaras are the very first foundational exercises taught to a beginner in Carnatic classical music. They are simple patterns of swaras (notes) arranged in different sequences to:

Help you understand the basic structure of the raga
Develop voice control, swara knowledge, and rhythm (tāla)
Build a strong base for more complex lessons like Janta swaras, Alankaras, and Geethams
They are always taught in the raga Māyāmāḷavagowla , which is ideal for beginners due to its symmetric structure and clarity.

🎼 2. Sarali Swara 3 – The Swara Pattern

The 3rd Sarali Swara introduces small jumps between notes. It’s slightly more complex than the first two, training the student’s voice to handle non-linear swara transitions.

🪶 Sarali Swara 3
Ascending (Arohana):
S R G M | R G M P | G M P D | M P D N | P D N S ||
Descending (Avarohana):
S N D P | N D P M | D P M G | P M G R | M G R S ||

📊 Explanation of the Pattern

Instead of moving strictly step-by-step like in Sarali 1 & 2, Sarali 3 uses overlapping phrases.
Each segment starts from a note one step ahead of the previous segment’s start, creating a smooth cascading effect.
The goal is to strengthen swara recall and improve transition control when notes don’t follow a strict linear order.
