Different limbs have been named and their manifold gestures and movements described, with various significance attached to each one of them.
膧峁単颈办补 (鈥榞estures and postures鈥�) is of three kinds, viz.
- that of the limbs (艣腻谤颈谤补),
- that of the face (mukhaja)
- and that related to [different], movements of the entire body (肠别峁ａ弓腻办峁泃补) including the 艢膩kh膩, the A峁単a and the Up腻峁単补.
膧峁単颈办补 (啶嗋啷嵿啶苦) or 腻峁単颈办腻产丑颈苍补测补 refers to the first of four categories of abhinaya (histrionic representation). 膧峁単颈办补 is an expression through gestures, postures, movements of each part of the body and gait.
