Natyashastra (theatrics and dramaturgy)
Source: Shodhganga: Elements of Art and Architecture in the Trtiyakhanda of the Visnudharmottarapurana (natya)Forgiveness (as a quality) in Indian dramas, is associated with Sāttvatī-vṛtti: one of the denoted four kinds of Dramatic Styles (in Sanskrit: vṛtti), according to the Viṣṇudharmottarapurāṇa, an ancient Sanskrit text which (being encyclopedic in nature) deals with a variety of cultural topics such as arts, architecture, music, grammar and astronomy.—There are four kinds of vṛttis i.e., dramatic styles accepted in the Viṣṇudharmottarapurāṇa. According to the Viṣṇudharmottarapurāṇa, sāttvatī-vṛtti mainly displays vīrarasa and ārabhaṭī-vṛtti exhibits raudrarasa. The Sāhityadarpaṇa agrees on it. Because, according to the Sāhityadarpaṇa, sāttvatī-vṛtti is associated with the qualities of power, heroism, leaving, forgiveness and straightness and the vīrarasa is seen to be delineated by these qualities.
Natyashastra (नाट्यशास्त्र, nāṭyaśāstra) refers to both the ancient Indian tradition (shastra) of performing arts, (natya—theatrics, drama, dance, music), as well as the name of a Sanskrit work dealing with these subjects. It also teaches the rules for composing Dramatic plays (nataka), construction and performance of Theater, and Poetic works (kavya).
