Raga Mayamalavagowla with same notes as Rag Bhairav is a very Indian sound raga with flat 9 and flat 6 notes when compared to the major scale.

The C major is basic to guitar learning. Click to see how we use the c major scale as reference and change two notes to get the Mayamalavagowla scale (raag bhairav notes). The mayamalavagowla raga and its derivative Malahari raga are the beginning ragas of Indian Carnatic learning.
