Each raga in Carnatic music is defined by unique melodic patterns that give it a distinct identity, mood, and emotional flavor, known as "raga bhava." These patterns include specific sequences of notes in the ascending (arohanam) and descending (avarohanam) scales, usage of particular swaras with characteristic gamakas (ornamentations), and unique phrases called "prayogas."
