Metre Tables Home Page Next Section
We can outline here how to draw up a table for the âryà metre here, which will then serve as the example for all the other metres also. In the first table write guru-s wherever possible. In the 1st line the exception is in the 6th gaõa, which must be jagaõa or nagaõa. As jagaõa has a guru we write that shape first. In the 2nd line the 6th gaõa has only one laghu, so we have to write that there instead of a guru:

to make the second table we replace sarvaguru in the first gaõa with the next gaõa variety given in the original table above, which is sagaõa. Proceeding in this way we can now proceed to draw up the first 21 tables, which will be sufficient to demonstrate the methodology involved:
