Natyashastra (theatrics and dramaturgy)
: Shodhganga: Elements of Art and Architecture in the Trtiyakhanda of the Visnudharmottarapurana (natya)Foot Massage is associated with M峁沢a艣墨谤峁-hasta: one of the twenty-two Single-hand Gestures (in Indian Dramas) (known as 补蝉补峁儁耻办迟补丑补蝉迟补蝉), according to the Vi峁ａ箛udharmottarapur膩峁嘺, an ancient Sanskrit text which (being encyclopedic in nature) deals with a variety of cultural topics such as arts, architecture, music, grammar and astronomy.鈥擳he word 尘峁沢补艣墨谤峁 is the union of two words viz., 尘峁沢补 and 艣墨谤峁. The word 尘峁沢补 means deer and 艣墨谤峁 means head. So, it can be said that the hand posture which is called 尘峁沢补艣墨谤峁 identifies a posture that looks like the head of a deer. [...] In the Abhinayadarpa峁嘺, the 尘峁沢补艣墨谤峁-hasta posture is used to denote various things. This book states that this posture is used to show woman, cheek, wheel, limit, terror, quarrel, attire and to call someone or the beloved, the lute, foot massage, female organ, holding umbrella etc.
Natyashastra (啶ㄠぞ啶熰啶ざ啶距じ啷嵿い啷嵿ぐ, 苍腻峁瓂补艣腻蝉迟谤补) refers to both the ancient Indian tradition (shastra) of performing arts, (natya鈥攖heatrics, drama, dance, music), as well as the name of a Sanskrit work dealing with these subjects. It also teaches the rules for composing Dramatic plays (nataka), construction and performance of Theater, and Poetic works (kavya).
