fa: Śrutiḥ : Literary Device :
The word śrutiḥ (√śru ti<ktin) means something heard from others. It is
one of the most uncommon figures recognised by Bhoja only. The des-
ignation has been used here in a very wide sense and the varieties of
this figure as given by Bhoja indicate that a wide range of literary
devices accepted by the poets in different forms of literary works (such
as drama, epic, prose-romance) has been included in it. Śruti is sixfold:
(i) ash (blessing, benediction etc),
(ii) nāndī (benediction or propitiation of gods and hon-
ourable personalities),
(iii) vastu-nirdeśa (indication of the subject-matter or
theme),
(iv) namaskriyā (expression of devotion or obedience),
(v) dhruva (special kind of music used in a drama),
(vi) ākṣiptikā (special reference or indication).
eg 1. vägarthäviva samprktau vägartha-pratipattaye.
jagataḥ pitarau vande pārvatī-parameśvarau.
वागर्थाविव सम्पृक्तौ वागर्थप्रतिपत्तये ।
जगतः पितरौ वन्दे पार्वती - परमेश्वरौ ॥
For the comprehension of sound and sense
I salute Parvati and Parameśvara, in coupling,
-
The divine parents of the universe -
United as word and meaning.
It is the introductory verse of Kālidāsa's epic Kumarasambhava.
Here the poet expresses his profound regards to Pārvati and
Parameśvara, the divine pair (ie Lord Siva and His consort Pārvati).
