R墨ti is the characteristic way of a writer. The other words
used as synonyms are Gati, M膩rga, Panth膩岣� and Prasth膩na.
In Tamil and especially while our Rasikas appreciate our
musicians, we hear of the particular Panth膩, Vali or Na岣峚i
of each artist. All these words mean style. A poet of mark
has a style. To posses a distinct style is to be a poet of mark.
