अत्राह - किं रसेभ्यो भावानामभिनिर्वृत्तिरुताहो भावेभ्यो रसानामिति । केषाञ्चिन्मतं परस्परसम्बन्धादेषामभिनिर्वृत्तिरिति । तन्न । कस्मात् । दृश्यते हि भावेभ्यो रसानामभिनिर्वृत्तिर्न तु रसेभ्यो भावानामभिनिर्वृत्तिरिति । भवन्ति चात्र श्लोकाः - नानाभिनयसम्बद्धान्भावयन्ति रसनिमान् । यस्मात्तस्मादमी भावा विज्ञेया नाट्ययोक्तृभिः ॥ ३४॥

sanskrit

Here, it is questioned whether the emergence is from sentiments (rasas) to emotions (bhāvas) or from emotions (bhāvas) to sentiments (rasas). Some opine that the emergence is due to their mutual interrelation. However, this is not correct. Why? Because it is observed that sentiments emerge from emotions and not emotions from sentiments. There are supporting verses on this subject: "Since they evoke sentiments through various representations (abhinayas), these emotions (bhāvas) are to be understood as fundamental, as declared by the creators of dramatic art."
