The honest critique

Convention, counted

The Revati syllables above are the customary avakahaḍā assignment — an astrological convention, not a Vedic injunction. We publish it because families use it, and we publish it with its real inventory: the counts on each pada are what our scripture lists and dictionaries actually contain under that syllable, computed the moment you loaded this page.

A syllable with three attested names is a narrow gate; you deserve to know that before you commit to it — not after a “curated list” quietly pads it out.

Every candidate behind those counts resolves through the same engine as the rest of the site: scripture citation first, then dictionary attestation, then verified derivation — with an honest “not found” where we cannot prove a meaning.
