Srngaramanjari-sattka of sri visveswara pandeya
Jagannatha joshi
Srngaramanjari-sattka of sri visveswara pandeya Sanskrjit chhaya, hindi commentary and explanatory notes etc. Hindi - 1st ed - Varanasi Chowkhamba surabharati prakashan 1990 - 115
"Sringara is of 3 kinds: words, dress and action." In the facial make-up for Kathakali the cheeks up to the jaw bone are covered with a light green paste. Why is Sringara's colour light green? You will understand it if you know why, for example, Krishna's colour is dark blue. There are 3 kinds of explanations: one is given to children, another to religious adults, and the third is given to spiritual seekers for purely practical - even though mystic - purposes. The colours of the same deity manifested in different worlds will have very different tints.
