abstract
The literature of each language has preserved the human wisdom through the literary sources and hence they provide a wide range of research and study materials. The current world is always fed by the literature of the ancient times and tends to grow and develop, and more importantly to learn and deduct the ancient life as well as wisdom. It needs a keen and focused effort to find out the lessons from the ancient scriptures and this very paper is such an effort to point out the importance of the different perspective of a well arranged text entitled- ‘Dattila’. The very text deals with the branch of the knowledge of music and tries to cover the areas under the topic. It is an attempt to introduce the text and its nature to the academic world. The book is being introduced with a conviction that more studies should be conducted in this area and it will surely pave an initiation for more serious studies and discourses. A simple methodology is adopted for the general introduction of the book which includes the explanations about the external and internal details of the same. The aim is to present a general account of the text and it's designed to depict in a more lighter way.
