In Hinduism
Gitashastra (science of music)
: Shodhganga: Kohala in the Sanskrit textual tradition (gita)پⲹ (अतिस्वार्यस्वर) refers to one of the Vedic Svaras which is mapped to the Ṣaḍja-svara (of the Laukika type), according to the Kohalamatam, one of the works ascribed to Kohala—a celebrated authority of the ancient period along with others such as Bharata, Yāṣṭika, Śārdūla, Kāśyapa etc.—Kohalamatam has dealt with the aspect of svara in great detail. It also refers to the Vedic origin of svaras. The list of Laukikasvaras (=seven notes) has been mapped with corresponding Vaidikasvaras (=Vedic svaras)—For example, the Vedic پⲹ has been mapped to the Ṣaḍjasvara (of the Laukika type). Note: The ī-śṣ� presents a very different scheme. Here the Vedic پⲹ is mapped to the Niṣādasvara (of the Laukika type). Moreover, the ī-śṣ� presents the notes in the order of the 峾 scale viz.�ma, ga, ri, sa, dha, ni, pa—whereas in Kohalamatam we find a straight delineation of the svaras.
Gitashastra (गीतशास्त्र, īٲśٰ) refers to the ancient Indian science of Music (gita or samgita), which is traditionally divided in Vocal music, Instrumental music and Dance (under the jurisdiction of music). The different elements and technical terms are explained in a wide range of (often Sanskrit) literature.
