Guest guest Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 Dear Kalia and all, Does anyone have an example of a verse in the Usnig meter (28 syllables to the verse) , either in the Chandi or elsewhere ? I had the same question that you have voiced here Kalia. I have forwarded it to Swamiji for his clarification and will inform when he does.
