Adhyaya 356

It introduces Unādi-pratyayas—suffixes applied after verbal roots—and illustrates resulting siddha (accepted/established) word-forms, emphasizing their frequent (bahula) occurrence in Vedic usage.

It reflects awareness of pāṭha-bheda (recensional variation) and flags a problematic reading as tautological; the note indicates that even proposed alternatives at that locus may not be fully convincing.

By stabilizing word-formation and meaning, it supports correct scriptural reading, accurate ritual language, and disciplined scholarship—treating linguistic mastery as a component of dharma-oriented vidyā.
