According to the Sangitaratnakara, the caryaprabandha contains the following characteristics 109 1. They are composed in the meters like Paddhati etc. 2. They usually have the end rhymes like padantanuprasa 3. Their subject matter should be spiritual. 4. In such songs the tala shall be dvitiya. Kallinatha in explaining this aspect envisages that by dvitiya, the tala having same moraic contents can be accepted as such 110 108. Sen, Sukumar, History of Begali literature, p.15 109. Sangitaratnakarah, iv, 294-5, p.340 110. Ibid. 69

5. 6. As regards completeness and incompleteness it is also divided in two ways as purna and apurna. These can be further sub-divided into two varieties like samadhruva and visamadhruva, Kallinatha further opines that since caryaprabandha mainly depends on two limbs like pada and tala, it is called taravali and it has three dhatu to its credit, viz. Udgraha, Dhruva and Abhoga. Not only Sangita-ratnakara but other works on music proved that the songs of Gitagovinda come under the category of caryaprabandha. But with the passage of time these songs which were being sung as carya songs had to be put under classification of other modes and systems of music. According to the musical trend in the 12th and 13th centuries most of the songs of Gitagovinda may be attributed to the category of carya songs. 111 Like the Buddhist carya songs the songs of Jayadeva has also an internal spiritual appeal beyond their outward erotic connotations 112.
