(b) Two Hamsapaksa hands are waved like Tiilavrnta (palm leaf fan). This should be known as Udvṛtta or Tālavṛntaka.

Udvṛtta—the two Haṃsapakṣa hands waved like a palm-leaf (fan). Its alternative name is the Tālavṛnta (palm-leaf).

The two Haṁsapaksa hands, turned like a palm-leaf fan, should be known as Udvṛtta or Tālavṛntaka.

Udvṛtta (asunder): one Hamsa-paksa hand held face down-wards and one face upwards. Patron deity Vasistha.

When one Hamsapaksha hasta is held face downwards and the other face upwards, simultaneously, it is Udwṛtta hasta.

Udvṛtta: The two hands which are in Haṁsapaksha Hasta are waved like palm-leaf fans in front of the chest.

Udvrtta: When both the hands face each other forming the hansa paksha hasta, it is udvrtta.

One executes the vyāvartana while the other parivartana, simultaneously. This is done as the hands move upwards and these hands are udvṛtta hastas.

If the two Hamsapaksas are placed in front of the heart, as if preparing to play on two talas (cymbals), it is Udvrtta hasta.

If two haṁsapakṣas, facing away from each other are held at the chest in front it is udvṛtta.

When haṁsapaksha hands are moved in the same way with one hand turned up and lowered and the other turned downwards off the chest, it is known as udvrtta. Some call it talavrnta

Others say that when two haṁsapaksha hands facing forward are moved inwards and outwards it is udvṛtta
