Nāṭyaśāstra (नाट्यशास्त्र), rasa

निःसंज्ञो निष्प्रकम्पश्च स्थितः शून्यजडाकृतिः ।
स्कन्नगात्रतया चैव स्तम्भं त्वभिनयेद्बुधः
niḥsaṃjño niṣprakampaśca sthitaḥ śūnyajaḍākṛtiḥ |
skannagātratayā caiva stambhaṃ tvabhinayedbudhaḥ

The line

Unconscious, unshaking, standing with an empty, torpid aspect, and by the body gone rigid: the wise man should act paralysis.

नेपालीमा

अचेत, नहल्लिएको, रित्तो र जड रूपमा उभिएको, र शरीर कठोर भएको रूपमा विज्ञले स्तम्भ अभिनय गर्नुपर्छ।
