Natyashastra (theatrics and dramaturgy)

The Sides refers to one of the major Body Parts with which are associated various gestures and expressions (in Sanskrit Dramas), as conveyed through Āṅgikābhinaya: one of the four divisions of Abhinaya or “ways to convey or represent one’s emotion to others”, according to the Nāṭyaśāstra and 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.—The āṅgikābhinaya includes the histrionic representation of the limbs which is simply known as physical gestures. The aṅgas i.e., major classification of the body parts are six in numbers viz., head, hands, chest, sides, waist and feet.

There are five kinds of side movements accepted in the Viṣṇudharmottarapurāṇa and these are—

samunnata,
nata,
prasārita,
vivartita and
apasṛta.

Chinese Buddhism

四德 [si de]—The four nirvana virtues, or values, according to the Mahāyāna Nirvana Sutra: (1) 常德 [chang de] permanence or eternity; (2) 樂德 [le de] joy; (3) 我德 [wo de] personality or the soul; (4) 淨德 [jing de] purity. These four important terms, while denied in the lower realms, are affirmed by the sutra in the transcendental, or nirvana-realm.

四德 [si de]—The Four Virtues—[Term] These are the virtues possessed by the Mahayana Mahaparinirvana (大乘大般涅槃 [da cheng da ban nie pan]).

1. Virtue of Permanence (常德 [chang de]): The essence of Nirvana is eternally unchanging and free from arising or ceasing, hence it is called 'permanent'. Furthermore, its transformative function constantly continues according to conditions, also called 'permanent'.
2. Virtue of Bliss (樂德 [le de]): The essence of Nirvana is tranquil and eternally peaceful, hence it is called 'bliss'. Furthermore, its operation is unhindered and its actions are agreeable to the mind, also called 'bliss'.
3. Virtue of Self (我德 [wo de]): There are two interpretations of 'Self' (我 [wo]): First, it refers to the essence being truly existent, as stated in the 'Lamentation Chapter' (哀嘆品 [ai tan pin]) of the Nirvana Sutra (涅槃經 [nie pan jing]): "If a dharma is real, true, sovereign, and dependent, and its nature is unchangeable, this is called 'Self'." Second, it refers to its unhindered function, as stated in the 'Chapter on the Noble King of Virtue' (高貴德王品 [gao gui de wang pin]) of the Nirvana Sutra: "Because there is a Great Self (大我 [da wo]), it is called Great Nirvana; because there is great self-mastery (大自在 [da zi zai]), it is called the Great Self. What is meant by great self-mastery? The eight self-masteries (八自在 [ba zi zai]) are called the Self." (See entry for 八自在 [ba zi zai]).
4. Virtue of Purity (淨德 [jing de]): The essence of Nirvana is freed from all defilements (垢染 [gou ran]), hence it is called 'pure'. Furthermore, it remains undefiled even when manifesting in accordance with conditions, also called 'pure'. (Treatise on the Meaning of the Mahayana (大乘義章 [da cheng yi zhang]), Vol. 18).

Fahua Xuanyi (法華玄義 [fa hua xuan yi]) Vol. 4 states: "Destroying the afflictions (煩惱 [fan nao]) of the twenty-five realms of existence (二十五有 [er shi wu you]) is called purity (淨 [jing]); destroying the karma (業 [ye]) of the twenty-five realms of existence is called self (我 [wo]); not undergoing the retribution (報 [bao]) of the twenty-five realms of existence is called bliss (樂 [le]); being free from the birth and death (生死 [sheng si]) of the twenty-five realms of existence is called permanence (常 [chang]). The manifestation of the Buddha-nature (佛性 [fu xing]) is called permanence, bliss, self, and purity (常樂我淨 [chang le wo jing])." The teaching of these permanence, bliss, self, and purity (常樂我淨 [chang le wo jing]) is the main purport of the Nirvana Sutra (涅槃經 [nie pan jing]), hence the Nirvana Sutra is referred to as the 'teaching of permanence' (談常教 [tan chang jiao]).

四德—【名數】大乘大般涅槃所具之德也。一常德，涅槃之體，恒不變而無生滅，名之為常，又隨緣化用常不絕，名之為常。二樂德，涅槃之體，寂滅永安，名之為樂，又運用自在，所為適心，名之為樂。三我德，解我有二種：一就體自實名為我，如涅槃經哀嘆品中所謂：「若法是實是真是主是依，性不變易是名為我。」二就用自在名為我，如涅槃經高貴德王品所謂：「有大我故名大涅槃，大自在故名為大我。云何名為大自在耶？有八自在則名為我。」（見八自在條）。四淨德，涅槃之體解脫一切之垢染，名之為淨，又隨化處緣而不污，名之為淨（大乘義章十八）。法華玄義四曰：「破二十五有煩惱名淨，破二十五有業名我，不受二十五有報為樂，無二十五有生死名常，常樂我淨名為佛性顯。」說此常樂我淨，為涅槃經一部之所詮，故涅槃經謂之談常教。(八自在)

The gentleman embodies benevolence (仁 [ren]) sufficiently to lead people, gathers excellence sufficiently to accord with propriety (禮 [li]), benefits things sufficiently to harmonize with righteousness (義 [yi]), and is steadfast sufficiently to manage affairs.
