Nāṭyaśāstra (नाट्यशास्त्र), rasa

नानाभिनयसम्बद्धान्भावयन्ति रसानिमान् ।
यस्मातस्मादमी भावा विज्ञेया नाट्ययोक्तृभिः
nānābhinayasambaddhānbhāvayanti rasānimān |
yasmātasmādamī bhāvā vijñeyā nāṭyayoktṛbhiḥ

The line

Because they bring these rasa (रस) states into being, bound up with many actings, therefore these are to be known as bhāva (भाव) states by the speakers of drama.

नेपालीमा

अनेक अभिनयसँग बाँधिएर यी रस अवस्था उत्पन्न गर्ने हुनाले नाट्यका वक्ताले यिनलाई भाव अवस्था जान्नुपर्छ।
