  1. While mentioning here the four rasa-s, śṛṅgāra, vīra, raudra and bībhatsa, Dhanaṃjaya seems to have in mind what is given in his own kārikā-s IV. 43, 44, etc. The gist of his intention seems to be that kaiśikī is connected with śṛṅgāra and hāsya, sāttvatī with vīra and adbhuta, and ārabhaṭī with the other four, i.e. raudra, bībhatsa, karuṇa and bhayānaka. See also Nāṭyaśāstra of G.O.S. edition (XX. 73 and 74) which shows some readings in the text and gives different readings in the Footnotes. The Footnote readings in G.O.S. notes as: 1. bhayānake ca bibhatse raudre cārabhaṭī bhavet; and 2. sarveṣu rasabhāveṣu bhāratī saṃprakīrtitā seem, in the light of Dhanaṃjaya’s kārikā-s, to be correct. See also Śiṅgabhūpāla’s Rasārṇavasudhākara (T.S.S.) from etac ca śṛṅgāragrahaṇaṃ on page 86 to bhāratyāḥ sarvarasasādhāraṇyam upapannam eva, and kārikā 290 and 291 (A) on page 87.
