This study focuses on the devices implemented in Classical Indian texts on ritual and language in order to develop a structure of rules in an economic and systematic way. It reveals a key feature of some among the most influential schools of Indian thought and will be of interest for Sanskritists, scholars of ritual exegesis and of the history of linguistics.
