Natyashastra of Bharata Muni with Hindi Commentary (Vol 1)
भरत मुनि / आचार्य अभिनवगुप्त द्वारा
560 NATYASASTRA XXXVI. 62
produce dramas there, [for] I shall not be able to disregard the words of this earthly king.
Kohala is the successor of Bharata
62-63. For us and for Nahuṣa, the self-born one (Brahman) has spoken in brief on the dramatic art which depends on his own instruction. The rest will be uttered by Kohala¹ in his supplementary treatise (uttara-tantra) which consists of the application [of the rules], the Memorial Verses (kārikā) and the Etymologies (nirukta).
- This Śāstra for the purpose of diversion (lit. toy) has been established by me in Heaven with the help of the Apsarasas and the sages Svāti and Nārada.
Bharata's sons come down to the earth
-
Then, O Brahmins, they went down to the earth in the house of Nahuṣa and devised in due order the production of various plays with the help of women.
-
Then they, my sons, begot progeny in women of the earth and devised for them more dramas (lit. creation) on various themes.
-
After begetting sons and devising plays in due order they were permitted to return again to Heaven.
-
Thus through a curse the dramatic performance has been brought down to the earth, and the future generation of the dramatic artists (bharata) came into being.
Kohala and his associates
69-70. Kohala Vātsya¹, Śāṇḍilya², Dhūrtila (Dattila?)³ and others stayed in the earth for sometime as mortals and put into practice this Śāstra which augments the intellect of men, deals with the deeds of the Three Worlds and is an epitome of all other Śāstras.
