of Sanatkumara, ancient Rsis, the seven svara and the seven
neither-worlds)

Sanatkumarah
Sankah Sanandanah Sanatano pyasuripingalaucha I
Sapta Svarah sapta rasatalani Kurvantu save mama suprabhatam II
Sanatkumara, Sanaka, Sanadana and Sanatana ( whom Brahmaji
begot by wish); Rsi Asuri ( a disciple of Rsi Kapila, the founder of
the Samkhya system of philosophy), Rsi Pingala ( the auther of
Hindu Prosody); the Seven Svara (tones) (i.e. Sarja, Rsabha,
Gandhara, Madhyam, Panchama, Dhaivata and Nisada); and the seven
nether-worlds (Atla, Vitala, Sutala, Talatala, Rasatala, mahatala
and Patala) ---may all these make my morning auspicious for me !
