: archive.org: Syainika Sastra of Rudradeva with English Translation (art)Aparakta (अपरक्त) or Aparaktatva refers to “that bird which is not manned�, according to the ŚⲹԾ첹-śٰ: a Sanskrit treatise dealing with the divisions and benefits of Hunting and Hawking, written by Rājā Rudradeva (or Candradeva) in possibly the 13th century.—Accordingly, [while discussing the training of hawks]: “[...] Whether it is ‘manned� (rakta) or not (aparakta-tva) is to be known by its actions. When it stands on one leg with the eyes closed, when it preens or � reforms� its feathers, when it ‘mantles� with its wings, or looks with a gentle eye at its master, then it is known to be ‘manned� (rakta), otherwise not (virakta). When the hawk is seen to be manned (rakta) it should be lured in a creance to a piece of meat from increasing distances. [...]�.

This section covers the skills and profiencies of the Kalas (“performing arts�) and Shastras (“sciences�) involving ancient Indian traditions of sports, games, arts, entertainment, love-making and other means of wordly enjoyments. Traditionally these topics were dealt with in Sanskrit treatises explaing the philosophy and the justification of enjoying the pleasures of the senses.

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम� (ṃsṛt), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
