Nāṭyaśāstra (नाट्यशास्त्र), rasa

एवमेते बुधैर्ज्ञेया भावा ह्यष्टौ तु सात्त्विकाः ।
कर्म चैषां प्रवक्ष्यामि रसभावानुभावकम्

karma caiṣāṃ pravakṣyāmi rasabhāvānubhāvakam

The line

Thus these eight states born of sattva (सत्त्व) are to be known by the wise. And I shall declare their deed, following rasa (रस), state, and consequent.

नेपालीमा

यसरी सत्त्वबाट जन्मेका यी आठ अवस्था विज्ञले जान्नुपर्छ। अनि म रस, अवस्था र अनुभावलाई पछ्याउँदै तिनको कर्म बताउँछु।
