________________ GRAMMATICAL FUNCTIONS OF UPAPADAS 5. In support, attention may be drawn to the fact that Nagesa has already noted the presence of the concept of action (Rri yatva) in upapadas like namah?. To conclude, it is possible to go beyond the traditional attitude to the upapadas, which limits itself to the formation of the syntactic rules only, and say that, the upa padas like saha and vina add to the basic statement regarding the doer of action ; the sati saptamyanta upapadas add to the basic statement about the action itself, and that the upapadas like namah, syasti, svaha, svadha, alam and vasay take upon themselves the function of a verb.
