Notes
- ^ For details on the notation, see Roman Bengali transliteration.
- ^ According to legend, Tansen, a renowned bard in the imperial court of Akbar, could ignite oil lamps merely by singing his Diipak Raga. Hence, the Diipak Raga mentioned here is clearly not just a reference to the style of classical melody but also a metaphor for spiritual thirst or enlightenment.
- ^ As set out in the tantric cosmology of Ananda Marga, the seven lokas or layers of manifestation from crude matter to creative consciousness.
