[CHANDOGYA UPANISHAD 2.22.1]
------------------------------------------------
Presiding Deity - Voice

• Agni - Vinardi

• Prajaapati - anirukta

• soma - nirukta

• vaayu - s'laks.n.am

• indra - s'laks.n.am

• br.haspati - kraun~cam

• apadhvaanta - varun.a
------------------------------------------------
"Pray for the Vinardi voice. Practice on all of them; except that of Varun.a, one should avoid."

vinardi = agni = Deep like that of a bull = For [singing] the Saama Veda
anirukta = prajaapati = not very distinct = the udgiitha
nirukta = soma = clear
s'loks.n.a = vaayu = soft and soothing
s'loks.n.a = indra = soothing yet powerlful
kraun~ca = br.haspati = like the kraun~cha bird
apadhvaanta = varun.a = like a broken metal pot
-----------------------------------------------

I have not yet mastered the Transliteration scheme so there will be errors in the devanagari script. The accented
syllables are represented as accurately as possible In the transliteration directly below but not with the internationally
accepted method of transliteration. I used aa to represent the long A ; the perdiod ( . ) follows the syllable/letter that
possesses a dot accent mark beneath it ; the apostrophe ( ' ) follows the sibilant s just as it would appear above the
syllable ; once the apostrophe is used prior to the letter n ( 'n) as it appears in the text ; the tilda ~ follows the letter n
when it appears above the syllable in the text ; and finally a colon ( : ) follow the M to represent the anusvara or the H to
represent the visarga.
