innovation or free expression. It is no wonder that the prayoga is not taken into consideration in a Vedic context.
6) 'What a rule requires or does not require.' Avivaksite karmaņi under 6.1. 207, in which avivaksita is rather what a rule does not require', may be taken here as an example : it excludes āsīta in the passive sense.
7) 'What a formulation intends, or does not intend' is amply represented. For example, under 6. 1. 36 it is said of śrātāh that it does not intend to express the plural'; under 6.1.143 it is said of kustumburūni that 'it does not intend to express the neuter; the endings with which the kārtakaujapādis in 6. 2. 37 are given 'do not want to express number', while for śaitikāksapancāleyāḥ 'the plural is not prescribed because śaitikāksapañcāleyau in the dual is also found; the genitive angasya in 6. 4. 1, which acts as adhikāra until the end of the VII adhyāya, can also be considered a pure theme, without 'its use wanting to signify an ending'; finally, under 8. 2. 46, regarding the formulation of another sūtra, 1. 3. 19, using jeḥ as an inflected form of the dhātu ji, it is said that the sūtra merely uses the form ji and does not intend to express the meaning of the dhātu ji.'
We have listed here all the examples of heading 7) occurring in the vrtti to the last three adhyāyas. They are statistically numerous compared to the total number of occurrences of vivaksā terminology, much more numerous than in the first five adhyāyas.
***
In conclusion, in the last three adhyāyas of the Astādhyāyī commented on in the Kāśikāvrtti, anything referring to the prayoga, that is 4) and 5), disappears from the context of the vivakşā.
2) is modified, because the meaning to be expressed, as the rules prescribe it, is more often given as abhidheya, gamyamāna, etc. than as vivaksita or vivaksā : it becomes the objective meaning prescribed by the rules rather than the individual choice of the meaning to be expressed, according to rules.
3) undergoes substantial evolution in the direction of a device to justify otherwise irregular forms.
