SAHRDAYĀLOKA At Dhv. III. 16, Ā observes :
sup-tin-vacana-sambandhais tathā kāraka-saktibhih, krt-taddhita-samāsais ca
dyotyólaksya-kramaḥ kvacit. "Case-terminations, congugational terminations, number, relation, accidence, these become primary affixes, secondary affixes, and also compounds, - all conveyers of suggestion with undiscerned sequenciality.” (Trans. K. Kris. pp 147, ibid)
For Ā. a 'sentence' or "vākyā” also is a suggestive unit for rasa. This vākya-rūpaa-samlaksya-krama-dhvani, is also either 'śuddha' i.e. pure in itself, or "sankirna” i.e. mixed with figures of speech. A. provides proper illustrations for the same. He also says that 'construction' - or 'samghatanā’ in poetry becomes conducive to rasa. (Dhv. III. 6). We will discuss this in a separate chapter later when we will show, how in A.'s opinion different thought-currents are incorporated in his scheme of vyañjanā-dhvani-rasa. .
Keeping the supreme variety of rasa-dhvani in focus, Ā. also discusses how rasa is impeded in poetry, i.e. which are rasa-virodhi-tattvas or deterrents to rasa in poery and how to avoid the same. "Rasa-virodhi-tattva and its parihāra” is thus an important topic with reference to rasa-dhvani-kavya. We will discuss this, in view of A.'s opinion; as under. At Dhv. III. 17, Ā. observes :
"prabandhe muktake vā'pi rasādīn bandhum icchatā, yatnaḥ kāryaḥ sumatinā
parihāre virodhinām.” "prabandhe muktake vā’pi rasa-bhāva-nibandhanam praty ädstamanāḥ kaviḥ virodhi-parihāre param yatnam ādadhāti-anyathā tu asya rasamayaḥ ślokaḥ ekópi samyan na sampadyate."
kāni punas tāni virodhini yāni yatnatah parihartavyāni-ity ucyate..."
"Whether it is the whole work or a single stanza, a good poet, who is desirous of incorporating sentiments etc., in what he writes should take pains to avoid hindrances to them.” (Dhv. III. 17).
'A poet who is intent upon incorporating sentiments and emotions in his works, whether they be big or small, should turn all his efforts towards avoiding
