Today's Chord, Read from Sa

Set the daily chord's root as Sa and ask two sitar-native questions: what does each sounded string call itself in sargam, and which thaats could hold a raga built from these pitches.

Today's network chord with its root set as Sa: the sargam name of every sounded string, and the thaats a raga built from those pitches could live in.

Set today's root as Sa and a chord stops being a chord — it becomes a short list of swara offsets, and those offsets either fit inside one of the ten thaats or they do not. That reframing, not a strum, is what this site does with the pick every sister site draws from the same shared seed.

A hash of the calendar date over a curated pool picks one chord for the whole Warrior Network each day, so every sister is looking at exactly the answer you are. Here the question asked of it is the sitar's own: with this root as Sa, which classification frames could hold a raga built from these pitches — and what does each sounded string call itself in sargam.

The page below places the chord's voicing on the CGCGC strings, names each sounded string's swara relative to Sa with its komal or tivra mark, and lists every one of the ten thaats whose full offset set covers the chord's pitch classes — or says plainly when none does.

The shape is computed in your browser, from your own calendar date, and never on the server: rendered pages here are cached at the edge for hours at a time, so a date baked into the HTML would cheerfully hand you yesterday's chord a minute after midnight. Once the page knows what day it is where you are, today's chord and its Sa reading appear below.

While you wait — or if scripting is off — the thaats pages have all ten frames recomputed swara by swara, and the chord reference has the whole 12-TET library.
