Natyashastra (theatrics and dramaturgy)

Source: Wisdom Library: Nāṭya-śāstra

Sampat (सम्पत्) refers to a “regular verse” in which the number of syllabes per quarter (pāda) is equal, according to the Nāṭyaśāstra chapter 15. It is also spelled as Sampat.

context information

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.

Vastushastra (architecture)

Source: Wisdom Library: Vāstu-śāstra

Sampat (सम्पत्, “wealth”) refers to one of the ten effects of vyaya (“loss”), according to the Mānasāra. Vyaya is the second of the āyādiṣaḍvarga, or “six principles” that constitute the “horoscope” of an architectural or iconographic object. Their application is intended to “verify” the measurements of the architectural and iconographic object against the dictates of astrology that lay out the conditions of auspiciousness.

The particular vyaya (e.g., sampat) of all architectural and iconographic objects (settlement, building, image) must be calculated and ascertained. This process is based on the principle of the remainder. An arithmetical formula to be used in each case is stipulated, which engages one of the basic dimensions of the object (breadth, length, or perimeter/circumference). Like in the case of the fruits of āya, all ten effects of vyaya must be considered as auspicious.

It is unbearable. It destroys all riches (saṃpad-vināśa). It is the seed of all adversities. O gods, all of you go to Kailāsa and propitiate Śiva. Make Him go to Himavat’s abode quickly. Let him approach the lord of mountains and make disparaging remarks about Himself. Rebuking others is conducive to destruction. Rebuking oneself is conducive to fame”.

He is like the king of the lions (siṃharāja). [...] The Buddha-lion is very similar. [...] The three gates of deliverance are the fore-part of his body with firm flesh. The three wonders are his long spine. The perfection of the sciences and practices (vidyācaraṇa-saṃpad) is his invisible belly. Patience is his narrow waist. The practice of solitude is his long tail. The four foundations of magical power are his well-planted paws. The five faculties of the aśaikṣa are his sharp claws. [...]
