Nāṭyaśāstra (नाट्यशास्त्र), rasa

ये त्वेते सात्त्विका भावा नानाभिनयसंश्रिताः ।
रसेष्वेतेषु सर्वे ते ज्ञेया नाट्यप्रयोक्तृभिः
ye tvete sāttvikā bhāvā nānābhinayasaṃśritāḥ |
raseṣveteṣu sarve te jñeyā nāṭyaprayoktṛbhiḥ

The line

These states born of sattva (सत्त्व), resting on many actings: in all of these rasa (रस) states they are to be known by the performers of drama.

नेपालीमा

अनेक अभिनयमा रहेका सत्त्वबाट जन्मेका यी अवस्था सबै यी रस अवस्थामा नाटक गर्नेहरूले जान्नुपर्छ।

Where it sits

The eight signs are not the property of one rasa (रस). Every rasa (रस) can wear them. 6.22 named them. 7.95 gave them many causes.
