एवं रसाश्च भावाश्च व्यवस्था नाटके स्मृताः ।
य एवमेताञ्जानाति स गच्छेत्सिद्धिमुत्तमाम्
evaṃ rasāśca bhāvāśca vyavasthā nāṭake smṛtāḥ |
ya evametāñjānāti sa gacchetsiddhimuttamām

नेपालीमा

यसरी रस अवस्था र भाव अवस्था नाटकमा व्यवस्था भनेर सम्झिन्छन्। यिनलाई जान्ने मानिस सर्वोच्च सफलतामा पुग्छ।

Where it sits

Closes the seventh adhyāya (अध्याय). Siddhi (सिद्धि) is the success 6.26 divided into divine and human. The arrangement is the eight, the bracketed ninth, the forty-nine states, and the sūtra (सूत्र) that joins them.
