Each Rasa is a repository of energy drawn from our Prana (life force). The 9 Rasas as described in ancient Indian aesthetic philosophy can be seen as being indicative of prime human emotions. Though some things have a higher vibrational essence, others are lower and some even appear as dead, Rasa remains the invisible substance that gives life its meaning. Rasa is in everything, or better yet, everything “has” Rasa. Performances and artwork were created solely with the aim of evoking the Rasas in the audience. In Sanskrit Nava means nine and Rasa has many translations in English, and the main ones are: essence, juice, nectar, taste, or sap, but Rasa is commonly used to denote the sense of an “emotional state.” The nine Rasas were (and are) the backbone of Indian aesthetics ever since they were codified in the Natyasastra (written sometime between 200 BC-300 AD) and they formed the foundation from which the traditions of dance, music, theatre, art and literature evolved.
