About the Book
The love for music is innate in human beings. Even a newborn’s cry carries rhythm and melody, reflecting the inherent musicality in human life. The Sanskrit root “chhand” (छंद) refers to rhythm, meter, or structure, and has been used since Vedic times to denote patterned sounds that uplift, cover, or bind. Vedic sages originally employed chhand in mantras to protect themselves from natural forces, highlighting its sacred and protective origins.
In this book, Sudha Tripathi explores the evolution and significance of chhand in Hindi literature. Through detailed insights, she explains its rules, structures, and applications—from meters in ancient Vedic texts to its prominent use in works like the Ramcharitmanas, where chaupai and doha dominate, alongside other poetic forms. This work serves as a comprehensive study of the aesthetics, rhythm, and enduring relevance of chhand, making it essential for anyone interested in the musical and literary heritage of Hindi poetry.
