Critical Word-Index to the Bhagavadgitā
In
in the last column of Section A of this Part. The compound words from which they were taken out have been mentioned therein for ready reference. Several of the secondary units also being found to be compounds as shown in the last column of Section A within brackets, they were again subjected to an analysis and the parts thus separated were arranged alphabetically and given in Section B of this Part as Tertiary Word-Units along with the Primary and Secondary Word-Units from which they were taken out. The same process being carried on further in the case of such of the tertiary units as happened to be compound words, yielded Quaternary Word-Units. These have, therefore, been alphabetically arranged and placed in Section C together with the relevant Tertiary, Secondary and Primary Word-Units. order to illustrate the operation of this process, let us revert to the stanza above given, namely 4.27. The 7th Primary Word-Unit therein is आत्मसंयमयोगानौ. This compound word will be found to have been resolved into its component parts in the last column of Pt. II, Sec. A (a) as against the word [No. 7]. The first dissolution yields the two words Я and . These are, therefore, put in as Nos. 7 and 154 amongst the Secondary Word-Units in Pt. II, Sec. A (a). The first word being again a compound word, is dissolved as shown in larger brackets in the last column above-mentioned and the words obtained are and . They are accordingly placed as Nos. 36 and 209 amongst the Tertiary Word-Units in Pt. II, Sec. B (a). The first of these two words is again a compound word. When similarly dissolved it yields the words R and as shown in smaller brackets within the larger ones. They are, therefore, given places amongst the Quaternary Word-Units indexed in Part II, Sec. C (a) as Nos. 3 and 33. This Part contains an additional section, namely Section D. It has been added with a view to show at a glance which words are common to the preceding sections.
IV. Word-Units Common to Parts I and II.
Now the simple primary units being most of them inflected words and the simple secondary, tertiary and quaternary ones being the basic forms of words only, it would not have been easy, if the Index had been placed before the public as it stood at the end of Part II, for a reader to get all the references to a given word at one place. Part III has accordingly been added to make that task easy by reducing to their basic forms all the simple primary units, i. e. to say, all the Primary Word-Units not taken notice of for the purpose of the analytical study comprised in Part II, re-arranging in an alphabetical order all such forms, which was rendered necessary by the fact of the same basic forms being common to several word-units not necessarily commencing
