Rasas are emotions, the plethora of feelings experienced by our gods, fellow humans, and even ourmighty animal kingdom. It transforms an external experience into an internal feeling, which in turnenables us to form our society, our relations, and eventually ourselves. Each of us can be describedby features dominated by a single emotion or a combination of emotions. Thus, it is safe to saythat essentially rasa is in everything and everything has rasa—our everyday, our vulnerabilities, ourstruggles, and most of all our triumphs. Sadly, our hectic lifestyles are driving us farther away fromour abilities to express and experience our emotions freely. Bounded by social restrictions, we, thenew, modern humans, are allowing ourselves to be held back by our liabilities.In an effort to break these bondages, Rasas in Divine Relationships uniquely interweaves the conceptof emotions, rasas, from the Natya Shastra (a treatise on the performing arts) and the lives andstories of deific couples, to lead as examples. These larger-than-life characters with extraordinaryqualities, upon whom we mortals base our belief system, are depicted as being vulnerable to someof the base desires and vices, thereby making them relatable for the present generations.
