Raga Jait or Jayat
Raga Jayat is also known as Raga Jait. Three variations of this raga exist. First one is with Rishabh Komal and Madhyam and Nishad Varjya (Audhav-Audhav). Second variation uses Madhyam Teevr and the Third one uses both Rishabhs and both Dhaivats, along with Teevr Madhyam. The first variation is the most popular and is described here.
In this raga, Pancham is a powerful and resting note. Dhaivat is used as a Vakra Note, for example: P D P S' ; S' P D G P. One should refrain from employing Dhaivat in straight notes in Aaroh and Avroh, meaning P D S' or S' D P should not be taken. If Dhaivat is employed like this, raga Deshkar might make it's appearance. Therefore, Dhaivat is used like: P D P S'; S' P D P. Also, Dhaivat is weak and not very rigorously used.
Raga Jayat also resembles raga Vibhas, but the use of Shuddha Dhaivat and less use of Rishabh in Aaroh separates it from Vibhas. Repeated and Vakra use of Shadj and Pancham brings out the essence of Jayat.
S-G, G-P, P-S' are important Swar Sangati and P-D-G are raga Vachak cluster Notes. Komal Rishabh can be skipped sometimes while ascending, for example: S G P ; P D P; P D G P ; G r S' ;. Gandhar and Pancham are resting notes.
