________________ TAPASVI NANDI SAMBODHI RS. observes that as there is much to talk about srngära and as it pleases all, srngāra is taken up first for treatment (RS. II. 168, pp. 175, ibid). The varieties saṁbhoga and vipralambha are accepted by RS. The latter is caused by many reasons. RS. describes all sub-varieties due to various reasons. The word used is "....ādibhir vyajyate.” But this is not RS.'s commitment to vyañjanā. "Vyajyate' here may mean just "manifested." RS. accepts karuna-vipralambha and refutes the views of the Dasarūpaka of Dhananjaya in this respect (RS. II. 218, 19 pp. 189, ibid). Hāsya is accepted as such. This follows accepted pattern. Vira has three varieties such as dāna-vīra, yuddha vīra and dayā-vīra (RS. II. 236, pp. 195, ibid). RS. does not mention any varieties of either adbhuta or raudra or karuna though Bharata has given three varieties of raudra and karuna. Bibhatsa is also ksobhaja, śuddha and udvegi i.e. three-fold for Bharata and Dhananjaya but RS. has not given varieties. Bhayānaka also is three-fold for Bharata such as vyāja-janya, aparādhajanya and vitrāsitaka, but RS. has kept quiet over these varieties. RS. has accepted rasa-sarkara' in its own way. When there is angāngibhāva located with reference to two rasa-s, it is rasa-sankara for RS. (II. 252, 253. pp. 200 ibid). RS. has no faith in a rasa-sankara wherein two rasa-s of equal prominence are juxta-posed. Singabhūpāla says that this position is unacceptable as there is no factor which decides in favour of one of the two to be tasted first: "kecit samānabalayor anayoḥ sarkaram viduh. II 252b. na parīkņākşamaṁ idam matam prekṣāvatāṁ bhavet, tulyatve pūrvam āsvādaḥ katarasyety aniścayāt.” But this argument seems primary. In a given illustration rasa is not to be tasted one by one. As is the case of bhāva-sabalatā, so is the case of rasa-sankara wherein the man of taste enjoys more than one rasa simultaneously in a given illustration. Rasa-virodha is treated in RS. following the lead of Anandavardhana (RS. II. 257-261, pp. 200, 201, ibid). Rasā'bhāsa for RS. is subordination of the principal rasa, or attaching greater importance to subordinate rasa is also rasā"bhāsa. angenā’ngi rasaḥ svecchāvrtti-vardhita-sampadā, amātyena avinītena svāmīva-ābhāsatām vrajet.” (II. 263, pp. 202).
