THE INDIAN ANTIQUARY.
[NOVEMBER, 1894.
Padmakara-bhatta (Padmábharana, 224), says : - Jo guņa dosha té aura ké
thapai anata guna disha! Táhi kahata ullása kavi
pdi hiyé santosha | 164b 11 When one person gains a good quality or a bad quality from the good or bad quality of another, it is called by poets ullása.' He then gives examples of :
(1) Good qualities begetting good qualities (guna tê guna). (Example - the beauty of Krishna enlarging the eyes of those who behold him, owing to their being unable to cease staring.)
(2) Bad qualities begetting bad qualities (dosha tê' dôsha). (Example - disfiguring marks of dalliance with another woman, on the hero, begetting anger in the heroine.)
(3) Good qualities from bad ones (dôsha té guna). (Example - a crowd thrusts aside a beggar into the dust, and thereby saves his life.)
(4) Bad qualities from good ones (guna té dôsha). (Example - a good man proving (by the fact of his goodness) the folly of those who do not reverence him.) So also Giridhara-dâsa (Bhárat:- húshana): - Jaha eka ke guna dósha té.
hoi aura kau tauna Ullásálankára tehi
varanahi kavi mati-bhauna 11 1640 11 Kahu guna té guna, dosha té
dosha, guna-hu té dosha 1 Dôsha-hue té guna hóta imi
varanata kavi mati-kosha | 1640 II He then gives four similar examples. So also Raghunatha (Rasika-mohana, 175):Só ulása guna sau su-guna
hóta, disha sau dosha Guna sau dúshana, dôsha té
guna, vidhi chári, sa tosha || 1640 11] Text.
Avajñalankara. Hóta avajñá aura kau
na lagai guna aru dôsha Parasi sudha-kara kirana kau
phulai na pankaja-kosha 11 165 11 . Translation.
Indifference. [Not in Sahitya-darpana.]
It is the ornament of Indifference when one is not affected by another's good or bad qualities (as might have been expected), as for example:
• The lotus-flower does not expand, when it touches the rays of the moon.' [Giridhara-dasa (Bharati-bhúshana, 279) makes this plainer :Gama tế gia mai hồi, are
nahi dôsha té dôsha Kahahi. avajñá dội vidhi
imi kavi kavitá-kosha il 1658 1 There are two kinds of Indifference, when good qualities do not beget good qualities in another, and when bad qualities do not beget bad qualities.' He then gives examples of each, viz. :
(1) Rapture not being begot by beautiful poetry.
(2) The ashes on 'Siva appearing to him as pleasant as sandal paste, and the háláhala poison like nectar.)
