In Hinduism
Natyashastra (theatrics and dramaturgy)
Source: Wisdom Library: Nāṭya-śāstraVyalīka (व्यलीक, “mixed feeling”) refers to one of the four causes of “jealousy” (īrṣya), according to the Nāṭyaśāstra chapter 24.
Accordingly, “mixed feeling (vyalīka) arises due to jealousy mixed with great joy when one’s beloved one is seen [near by] even after he has been treated with contempt in many ways. Mixed feeling (vyalīka) should be represented by putting forward a foot and having the left hand on the breasts and the right one violently gesticulating”.
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).
