Sandhi Sutras in Chapter 3

In the following table we present all the major Paninian sandhi sutras that are applicable to the stanzas in this chapter of the Srimad Bhagavad Gita. The workings of some Paninian sandhi sutras are somewhat difficult to visualize. Hence we have tried to illustrate the operations of these sutras, to show the student real examples of the application of each sutra to one or more stanzas. Illustrations of each sutra can be seen by clicking a sutra link below, which will take one to a page where illustrations are provided of the manner in which the sutra transforms its input.
