LITERARY HISTORY (Commentary) ....................Yathā chañchad-bhuja ity=ādi (Translation) (Text) âThe Gauḍī, again, is of bombastic construction with letters manifesting Ōjas and abounding in compounds.â (Commentary) ....................âFor example chañchad-bhuja etc.â The question no arises: What are the characteristics of this Ōjas, which here is obviously a Śabda-guṇa and has to be distinguished from Ōjas as Artha-guṇa which we have considered above. The former is thus described in the Sāhityadarpaṇa (VIII, 4-5) : (Text) ....................Ojaś=chittasya vistāra-rūpaṁ dīptatvam=uchyatē || 4 || (Commentary) Asya Ōjasaḥ | atr=āpi Vīr-ādi śabdā upalakshaṇāni | tēna Vīr-ābhās-ādāv=apy=asy=āvasthitiḥ | (Text) ....................Vargasy=ādya-tṛitīyābhyāṁ yuktau varṇau tad-antimau || 5 || (Commentary) ....................Yathā chañchad-bhuja ity=ādi | (Translation) (Text) âThe blazing-up of mind assuming dilation is termed Vigour (Ōjas). Of this, there is an ascendancy successively greater, in the Heroic, the Disgustful and the Furious.â (Commentary) â âOf thisâ means âof Vigourâ. Here also the terms Heroic, etc., are used in a comprehensive sense so that it may be comprised in the Semblance of the Heroic and so forth.â
