शान्त

Shanta

The rasa that arrives after the others have spoken. Not emptiness but settlement, the water clear because it has stopped being stirred, wanting nothing further from the hour.

करुणा

Karuna

The rasa of grief kept in good order. Not wailing, the quieter labour after: setting the cup back on its shelf, folding what will not be worn again, learning the exact weight of a name.

हास्य

Hasya

The rasa of the tilted glance. Comedy here is not decoration but diagnosis, the poet lets the world overhear itself, and the pretension collapses of its own weight.

बीभत्स

Bibhatsa

The rasa of the flinch that teaches. Revulsion is the body's honesty about rot, bodily, social, moral, and the poet refuses the mercy of looking away.

शृंगार

Shringara

The rasa of nearness and its long shadow. Not only the meeting, also the waiting that precedes it, the doorway watched all evening, the way a room rearranges itself around one absent person.
