Abstract
Rasa theory of Bharata—in Vedas, rasa means sap or essence—experience of the supreme reality. Seers of the Vedas knew about the need for ‘Sahridayatwa’ to understand poetry. Valmiki’s sloka—overpowered by the intense feeling of pathos—karunarasa of Ramayana—kraunca birds. Bharata lived during the first or second part of the first century B.C. deals with various aspects of dramaturgy. Drama was a much developed art during his times. He gave a proper definition to rasa in his Natyashastra.
