Raag Darbari Kanhara

Explanation :
http://www.sawf.org/audio/kanada/jha_darbarispeak.ram

Legend assigns to Tansen credit for giving the ancient Kanada the new interpretation which we today associate with Darbari.
It is a monumental rAga, unmatched in Hindustani music for its gravitas, difficult for its swara-lagAv, and profound for its emotional impact on both the innocent and the illuminati alike.

Arohi use of gandhAr: S R (R)g, (R)g
avarohi use of gandhAr: (M)g, (M)g M (S)R, SA

__________________________________________________ ______________________
Important Note:

(In Sikh Gurbani, Allah is described as Universal , All Prevading God, present in all His creation. But in the Quran, it is described very differently.) Hence, all Muslim beliefs differ in concept from Sikhism. It is often found that Muslims tend to sing Gurbani only if the word Allah is present. But to sikhs Allah, Ram, Vaheguru, Hari are all different words expressing the same Universal Creator, One God.
