Abstract

We have obtained a fairly complete picture of what the BP means according to Nāgeśa. To this he adds a few restrictions, which will be studied in this chapter. These restrictions are two in number. The BP, so Nāgeśa tells us, cannot be used in the last three chapters of Pānṣini’s grammar (i.e., in the Tripādī), nor in P. 6.4.22-175, the so-called Ābhīya section.
