ASCII MUSICAL NOTATION developed by Leigh Ann Hussey with help from Shadowthought and Josh Gordon

Each line of the music consists of 4 lines of music. The time signature(s), the lines between bars, and each note take up one column, with modifiers such as sharps, flats, and dots extending a note up to three columns. The time signature is written at the beginning in the obvious way. Three vertical bars

(lines 2 to 4) mark the divisions between measures. Lines 1 to 3 indicate note durations, as follows:

1/16 1/8 1/4 1/2 dotted-1/2 1/8 1/4 note note note note note rest rest = _ | | | | | ' % | | | o o.

Line 4 indicates the pitch. The numbers 1 to 8 mark the octave including middle C (A through F); 1' to 8', one octave above middle C; 1" to 8", two octaves above middle C; '1 to '8, the octave below middle C. A number followed by a # is a sharp; a number followed by a lower-case b is a flat.

Underscores connecting a note to the next note indicate a slur. Consider the following examples:

Deity; 'va' is energy, the manifested or female side of Deity. This mantra represents the whole course of the Universe, from Zero through the finite back to Zero."
