        "description": "In the ragamala system, male ragas are \"married\" to female raginis. Todi Ragini is a \"wife\" of Hindola Raga, the name of a scene that features the male lover or lovers on a swing. Both Todi and Hindola are meant to explore the moods of springtime. Ragamala verses describe Todi as a woman with sharp eyes and a slim \"extremely tender body, radiant as the frost\" and smeared with saffron and camphor from Kashmir. She is said to \"push back a deer from the edge of a forest glade.\"",
