“Ashakiran” is the nickname for Sabye , which expands the scale even further with an additional, higher tone field.

The sequence of notes starts from the base note (DING) to the first note with a leap of a fourth, which acts like an upbeat. From there it goes up gradually until a small leap of a third takes you up from the seventh note , which makes the note an octave of the DING . This makes the sound a little more open, so that it is not grounded in the upper octave range , but vibrates freely . In this tuning, a major triad is created on the first, second and fourth notes, and a minor triad on the first, second and third notes. This tuning sends you light, encouragement and good energy!

Basic tone sequence with 9 notes: F/ Bb CDEFGAC
Sequence with 10 notes: F/ A Bb CDEFGAC (as in the video)
