________________ SOME UNCONVENTIONAL VIEWS ON RASA 353 7. ये तु रत्याद्यनुकरणरूपं रसमाहुः अथ चोदयन्ति शोकः कथं शोकहेतुरिति / परिहरन्ति च आस्ति कोऽपि नाट्यगतानां ' विशेष इति / .. -A.Bh., Vol I, p. 291 8. Abhinavagupta after refuting Sankuka's view very briefly refers to and refutes the view of the Samkhyas that rasa is of the nature of pleasure and pain. We have no more information about this view. The view of the authors of the Natyadarpana soon to be discussed below, bears close affinity to the Sarkhya view in its essence. 9.cf : अत्र तु त्यागतपोगुणो वीररसे वर्तते / त्यागतपसी च 'त्यागो गुणो गुणशतादधिको मतो मे', 'परं लोकातिगं धाम तपः श्रुतमिति द्वयम्' इत्यादिवचनात् समस्तगुणप्रधान(ने)इत्यनया विवक्षया वीररसस्य आदावुपन्यासः / --p. 135 10.
