“Dasarūpaka-Vicāra”
1705 i.e. the birth and conception of the sandhyanga-s are with reference to the sandhis such and mukha, pratimukha etc. The anga-s are fixed with reference to individual sandhi-s but the practice of the sandhy antara-s is not limited by any sections (such as individual sandhi-s) :

We will now turn to a comparative and critical study of the concept of sandhis and sandhyanga-s as found in major works with special help from the article of our guru Dr. V. M. Kulkarni who has attempted this study in an article printed in
