complicated patterns may be formulated. For example, for the 16 beat Teentaal, a Tihai of Tihais may be formed. This is known as the Chakradhar Tihai. One structure of Chakradhar Tihai may be implemented as the following, where the last 1 lands on the Sum. 4 1 1 1 4 1 1 1 4 1 1 1 Rest 4 1 1 1 4 1 1 1 4 1 1 1 Rest 4 1 1 1 4 1 1 1 4 1 1 1 [(4+1+1+1)x3x3]+1+1 = (7x3x3)+2 = (21x3)+2 = 63+2 = 65 = 64+1 = (16x4)+1 Following is a possible rhythmic composition based this structure (written in bols syllables). dhatirakita takatirakita dhatirakita tak'tirakita dha dha dha dhatirakita takatirakita dhatirakita takatirakita dha dha dha dhatirakita takatirakita dhatirakita takatirakita dha dha dha '''S''' ''(Silent, Rest)'' dhatirakita takatirakita dhatirakita tak'tirakita dha dha dha dhatirakita takatirakita dhatirakita takatirakita dha dha dha dhatirakita takatirakita dhatirakita takatirakita dha dha dha '''S''' ''(Silent, Rest)'' dhatirakita takatirakita dhatirakita takatirakita dha dha dha dhatirakita takatirakita dhatirakita takatirakita dha dha dha dhatirakita takatirakita dhatirakita takatirakita dha dha dha.
