Hāsya
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Hāsya (Sanskrit: हास्य) is a Sanskrit word[1] for one of the nine rasas or bhava (mood) of Indian aesthetics, usually translated as humour or comedy.[2][3] The colour associated with hasya is white and deity, Pramatha,[4] and leads to exultation of the mind.[5]
Hāsya often arises out of Sringara as mentioned in Natya Shastra, the classical treatise on the performing arts, of Bharata Muni, theatrologist and musicologist.[6] Rasa means "flavour", and the theory of rasa is the primary concept behind classical Indian arts, including theatre,[7] music, dance, poetry, and even sculpture.[3][8]
