They are:
Rupabheda: The knowledge of appearance
Pramanam: Correct perception, measure and structure
Bhava: Action of feelings om forms
Lavanya Yojanam: Infusion of grace, artistic representation

The subsequent development of painting by the Buddhists indicates that these 'Six Limbs' were put into practice by Indian artists and are the basic principles on which their art was founded.
