Adhyaya 352
Chapter 352 — Established Forms of Feminine-Gender Words (Strīliṅga-śabda-siddha-rūpa)
This chapter concludes the Vyākaraṇa section on established feminine-gender (strīliṅga) word-forms, serving as a consolidation point before the text turns to neuter paradigms. In the Agneya Vidyā teaching flow—knowledge imparted as sacred instruction—this grammatical closure has a practical aim: to steady correct usage for recitation, teaching, and ritual speech. The title signals a siddha-rūpa emphasis: not speculative theory, but authoritative forms to be memorized. As a structural hinge, it reflects the Purāṇa’s method of cataloging technical vidyās in digestible modules, treating grammatical correctness as a dharmic safeguard of meaning.
