व्याघातः Vyāghātaḥ
: VyāghātahFrustration : Frustration :
 

 
The word vyāghāta (vi àā √han ghanñ) literally means obstruction, hin
-
drance, impediment, interruption etc. In rhetoric, the figure Vyāghata
āta
technically means expression of something accomplished by some-

one when it becomes undone or frustrated by another in the same

way. It is called Vyāghāta since it expresses some sort of obstruction

towards the accomplishment of a work which has been performed

or is readily going to be performed. Ruyyaka mentions another

variety of this figure where any particular or the same reason des-

tined to accomplish an action is supported or corroborated as pro-

ducing the opposite effect. According to him, Vyāghāta is based on
'

Vyatireka (Dissimilitude) without which it is not possible.
 

 
Vyāghāta is different from Vișama because in the former some-

thing to be accomplished becomes frustrated, while in the latter,
the operation is not only frustrated but also suffers from some sort
of mishap.

Becomes alive again by the glances of women,

Who are winners against Lord Mahadeva
--
We glorify such fair-eyed beauties.
