Nāṭyaśāstra (नाट्यशास्त्र), rasa
एतत्स्वभावजं स्यात्सत्त्वसमुत्थं तथैव कर्तव्यम् ।
पुनरेभिरेव भावैः कृतकं मृदुचेष्टितैः कार्यम् etatsvabhāvajaṃ syātsattvasamutthaṃ tathaiva kartavyam |
punarebhireva bhāvaiḥ kṛtakaṃ mṛduceṣṭitaiḥ kāryam
The line
This would be born of one's own nature, and it is to be done as arisen from sattva (सत्त्व). Again, by these same states, the feigned is to be done with soft movements.
नेपालीमा
यो आफ्नै स्वभावबाट जन्मन्छ, र सत्त्वबाट उठेको रूपमा गरिन्छ। फेरि ती नै अवस्थाबाट कृत्रिम कोमल चालले गरिन्छ।
Where it sits
Two fear-acts. The natural one comes with sattva (सत्त्व). The feigned one uses the same signs, softly.
