    I know. I am looking for swaras for that as well. Actually I am trying to figure it out by myself.
    For most of the notations I don't have swaras. Those who are trying to learn compositions are simply following the singer and learning the sangathis as such. But if we have the swaras that will help to learn the swaras sancharam and patterns followed which will help in understanding the raga in a better way and the outcome will be even more beautiful.

    Pardon me if I am wrong.

    Oh no, you are not wrong in your aim to spread and instill interest in this music. It is appreciable.

    Please post the swara notes if you think that will help those who want to learn the songs.
    Anything done with a good intention can never be wrong.

    However, I am sure you also know that carnatic music is not a notes-to-song type of music. We do not play or sing exactly the way it is written.

    Our good friend @justanothergirl, who is extremely knowledgeable in music always has stressed in many posts in this forum that carnatic music should be learnt only with the help of a guru.
    That's because a lot of the finer nuances such as anuswaras, bhavam, and other fine points can be learnt only through the guidance of a guru.

    Thank you. Actually I am a aspirant Carnatic music student and a budding teacher as well. I could really understand the importance of getting trained by a guru and with all due respect I have 2 great gurus who are guiding me.
    But nowadays the thing which I could see everywhere is some of them are learning krithis from the YouTube videos or any other media which almost leads to more mistakes. Especially when they fail to understand the difference of swaras. For example. In thodi instead of Sudha daivatham people tend to use chatushruthi daivatham.
    May be it's bcz they couldn't realize the swara Sthanam. So I thought if at all they are learning let them practice along with the swaras.

    Day 2 - Pahimam shri vageeshwari - Kalyani - Adi talam
    In this Krithi the greatness of sahitya bhava is amply revealed. Swathi Tirunal vividly describes each aspect of Goddess Sarada’s bewitching form with rich poetic expressions. HER luxuriant tresses that resembles the dark rain clouds, her small white-bud like teeth, her wide lotus like beautiful eyes etc have all been graphically depicted in this krithi. He then prays to Goddess to make his mind, limbs and indriyaas (senses) ever engrossed in the service of her Lotus Feet.
