Vyakarana (Sanskrit grammar)
Source: University of Cambridge Repository: A hypertext critical edition of Bhartṛhari's Dravyasamuddeśa, with the commentary of HelārājaAvadhṛtarūpa (अवधृतरूप) refers to an “determined object”.—Cf. Vākyapadīya 3.2.2: “The real entity is determined through its unreal forms; only the real is denoted by words, which have unreal delimiters, [...]”.—[Commentary:] [...] Because they are based on a determined object (avadhṛtarūpa), the operation of words with respect to their object is in accordance with how [that object] has been determined, and determination takes place by means of forms. This is because something without form cannot arise as a cognition. When the ascertainment of difference, according to [one’s own] conceptions, is obstructed, what follows after [this obstruction] is precisely the undifferentiated entity, in the absolute sense; that very reality is Brahman.
Vyakarana (व्याकरण, vyākaraṇa) refers to Sanskrit grammar and represents one of the six additional sciences (vedanga) to be studied along with the Vedas.
