abhi-naya (yaḥ) 1. m. Indication of
passion by the look; civility.

abhinaya Tatpur. 1. m. (-yaḥ) Action and postures expressive

of sentiment, especially when exhibited in a dramatic per-

formance; dramatic representation; it is fourfold: āṅgika

or conveyed by bodily action, as by attitude, gesture &c.,

vācika by speech, āhārya by dress, decorations &c. and

sāttvika by the spontaneous manifestation of feelings, as

by perspiration, horripilation, inarticulate speech &c.; e. g.

Vikramorv.: lalitābhinayaṃ tamadya bhartā marutāṃ draṣṭumanāḥ sa-

lokapālaḥ; or a quotation by the Sāhityad.: yasmādabhinayo

hyatra prāthamyādavatāryate . raṅgadvāramato jñeyaṃ vāgaṅgābhinayā-

tmakam. The term abhinaya as applying merely to the means

of a dramatic representation is therefore distinct from the

term rūpaka (and its subdivisions) q. v. which belongs to the

contents of the representation or to the drama itself, both

being the categories which distinguish the ‘poem to be

seen’ from the ‘poem to be heard’; Sāhityad.: dṛśyaśravya-

tvabhedena punaḥ kāvyaṃ dvidhā matam . dṛśyaṃ tatrābhineyaṃ tadrūpāro-

pāttu rūpakam . bhavedabhinayo'vasthānukāraḥ sa caturvidhaḥ . ā-

ṅgiko vācikaścaivamāhāryaḥ sāttvikastathā; (the Amarak. dis-

tinguishes the abhinaya only as āṅgika and sāttvika; He-

mach. has the same definition as the Sāhityad.).

ABHINAYA . In Agni Purāṇa, Chapter 342, Abhinaya

has been defined as follows: Abhinaya is the art of

presenting before the people the ideas that are to be

communicated to them. There are four divisions of

this art known as Sāttvika, Vācika, Āṅgika and Āhārya

depending on Sattva, Vāk, Aṅga and Āhārya. Besides

these, another division known as Abhimānika (Abhi-

mānottha) may also be mentioned. This signifies the

expression of rasas like Śṛṅgāra. There are two kinds

of Śṛṅgāra known as Saṃbhoga and Vipralambha.

Four varieties of Vipralambha called Pūrvānurāga

Vipralambha, Māna Vipralambha, Pravāsa Vipra-

lambha and Karuṇa Vipralambha are mentioned. The

union after Vipralambha is Saṃbhoga-Śṛṅgāra. All

Sāttvika bhāvas are included in Śṛṅgāra. All these have

to be expressed through Abhinaya.
