Nirukta, Phonetic Variants, and Vedic Dhātu–Svara Taxonomy
स्वरितेद्राजृसंप्रोक्त स्तनहेभ्राजृतस्रयः । अनुदात्तेत अख्याता भाद्युतात्ता इतः स्यमात् ॥ २८ ॥
svaritedrājṛsaṃprokta stanahebhrājṛtasrayaḥ | anudātteta akhyātā bhādyutāttā itaḥ syamāt || 28 ||
スヴァリタ(揺れ動く抑揚)において、その音は「drājṛ-saṃprokta」と宣され、「stanahe-bhrājṛta-srayaḥ」のごとき連なりに拠って置かれる。アヌダッタ(低い抑揚)では「eta」と説かれ、低下の標として示される。ゆえに、ウダッタ(高く上がる抑揚)は残る別相として理解されるべきである。

It stresses that correct Vedic accent (svara) is part of dharma: precise chanting preserves mantra-power and prevents distortion of meaning and ritual efficacy.
Bhakti is supported by disciplined practice: when hymns and names are recited correctly, devotion becomes steadier and worship becomes more faithful to śāstra.
Śikṣā (phonetics) is highlighted—specifically the practical differentiation of the three Vedic accents: svarita, anudātta, and udātta for accurate recitation.
