Rasa, which may be interpreted as emotional flavor or sentiment, is the primary and most important requirement of art and literature. The term has been used most often in the context of the performing arts – theater, dance and music. The artiste must seek to arouse this emotion in the spectators, so that his and their emotions may fuse and become attuned to the spirit of the drama. The main difference between the rasa and bhava (feeling) is that, while the former depends purely on imaginative transfiguration, the latter is earthier, for it is concerned with creating a mood through physical media. Rasas express the beginning of a sentiment, whole bhavas complete or round it off either through the agency of mana, the brain or sharira, the body or through an action such as the throwing of a stone.

Doing Work With Meditation

Meditation during work refers to a mindset that helps us detach ourselves from the body and mind and remember our real nature (Atman) or, what amounts to the same, God, who dwells in the heart of all beings. For a beginner this amounts to refusing to identify with the body and the untrained mind, and trying to be a witness to his mental gyrations without getting affected by them. Practice enables one to become more alert and identify oneself with buddhi, the discriminative faculty. Incidentally, selfless work as a spiritual discipline is expected to result in this identification with buddhi, a step fundamental to any fruitful spiritual endeavour.
