Nāṭyaśāstra (नाट्यशास्त्र), rasa

रङ्गे पिबतः कार्या मदवृद्धिर्नाट्ययोगमासाद्य ।
कार्यो मदक्षयो वै यः खलु पीत्वा प्रविष्टः स्यात्
raṅge pibataḥ kāryā madavṛddhirnāṭyayogamāsādya |
kāryo madakṣayo vai yaḥ khalu pītvā praviṣṭaḥ syāt

The line

For one who drinks on the stage, the growth of intoxication is to be done once the dramatic sequence is reached. The waning of intoxication is to be done for the one who enters having already drunk.

नेपालीमा

रङ्गमञ्चमा पिउनेका लागि नाट्यक्रम पुगेपछि मदको वृद्धि गर्नुपर्छ। पहिले नै पिएर आउनेका लागि मदको ह्रास गर्नुपर्छ।

Where it sits

Two directions. Drink during the scene grows. Arrival already drunk declines.
