| The ''Nāṭya Śāstra'' is notable as an ancient encyclopedic treatise on the arts, which has influenced dance, music and literary traditions in India. It is also notable for its aesthetic [[Rasa (aesthetics)|"Rasa"]] theory, which asserts that entertainment is the desired effect of performance arts but not the primary goal and that the primary goal is to transport the individual in the audience into another parallel reality, full of wonder, where he experiences the essence of his own consciousness and reflects on spiritual and moral questions.

| [[Natya Shastra]] by Bharata Muni and "Abhinaya Darpana" by [[Nandikeshvara]] are considered to be the original sources of [[Bharatanatyam]] (an Indian classical dance form).
