Today we will look at the form जगत्पते from श्रीमद्भागवतम् SB 7-3-6

तेन तप्ता दिवं त्यक्त्वा ब्रह्मलोकं ययुः सुराः ।
धात्रे विज्ञापयामासुर्देवदेव जगत्पते ।। 7-3-6 ।।
दैत्येन्द्रतपसा तप्ता दिवि स्थातुं न शक्नुमः । 7-3-7 first half

Gita Press translation “Scorched, by that fire, the gods left heaven and went to the realm of Brahmā and submitted to the creator (as follows): – “Tormented by the asceticism of Hiraṇyakaśipu (the chief of demons), O god of gods, O lord of the universe, we can no longer stay in heaven.” “

‘जगत्पति’ gets प्रातिपदिकसंज्ञा by >1-2-46 कृत्तद्धितसमासाश्च। The विवक्षा here is पुंलिङ्गे सम्बोधने प्रथमा-एकवचनम्। 4-1-2 स्वौजसमौट्छष्टाभ्याम्भिस्ङेभ्याम्भ्यस्ङसिँभ्याम्भ्यस्ङसोसाम्ङ्योस्सुप् mandates the प्रत्ययाः सुँ, औ, जस् etc. after the प्रातिपदिकम् ‘जगत्पति’.

(1) जगत्पति + सुँ । Here the सुँ-प्रत्यय: gets the designation सम्बुद्धि: (which is required to apply 7-3-108) by 2-3-49 एकवचनं संबुद्धिः।

(2) जगत्पते + सुँ । गुणादेशः of the ending इकारः of the अङ्गम् by 7-3-108 ह्रस्वस्य गुणः।

(3) जगत्पते + स् । अनुबन्ध-लोप: by 1-3-2 उपदेशेऽजनुनासिक इत् and 1-3-9 तस्य लोपः।

(4) जगत्पते । सकार-लोप: by 6-1-69 एङ्ह्रस्वात्‌ सम्बुद्धेः ।

Questions:

1. Where does the phrase “देवदेव जगत्पते” come in the गीता?

2. Does the term “जगत्पति” have the घि-सञ्ज्ञा? Does the term “पति” on its own (not in a समास:) have the घि-सञ्ज्ञा?

3. The अमर-कोश: gives nineteen synonyms for the word “बह्मा” (प्रातिपदिकम् “ब्रह्मन्” – masculine in this meaning.) One of them is धाता (प्रातिपदिकम् “धातृ” – adjective, here masculine) which is used in this example in the form धात्रे (चतुर्थी-एकवचनम्). Can you list the other eighteen?
ब्रह्मात्मभूः सुरज्येष्ठः परमेष्ठी पितामहः।
हिरण्यगर्भो लोकेशः स्वयंभूश्चतुराननः ।।१-१-१६।।
धाताब्जयोनिर्द्रुहिणो विरिञ्चिः कमलासन:।
स्रष्टा प्रजापतिर्वेधा विधाता विश्वसृड्विधि: ।।१-१-१७।।
(इति विंशति: “ब्रह्मण:” नामानि)

4. How do you say this in Sanskrit?
“A child tormented by fever.” – Use the प्रातिपदिकम् “शिशु” for child and “ज्वरा” for fever.

5. As we have seen in previous examples, the त्वा-प्रत्यय: is used when we have the same doer doing two actions. The verbal root in the earlier action takes the त्वा-प्रत्यय:। (The सूत्रम् is 3-4-21 समानकर्तृकयोः पूर्वकाले ।) In this verse we have the word त्यक्त्वा which comes from the धातु: “त्यज्” . Who are the doers of this action? Which word in the verse gives us the second (later) action?

6. Where is the सूत्रम् 6-1-107 अमि पूर्वः used in this verse? How about 6-1-102 प्रथमयोः पूर्वसवर्णः ?

7. What is the name of the आचार्य: who wrote the highly regarded commentary भाष्य-प्रदीप: (or simply प्रदीप:) on the महाभाष्यम् ? (Answer to this and similar questions can be found in Prof. Abhyankar’s “Dictionary of Sanskrit Grammar.”)
a) भट्टोजि-दीक्षित: b) सायणाचार्य: c) कैयट: d) कात्यायन: e) नागेशभट्ट: f) भागुरि:

8. Where does पाणिनि: define the अङ्ग-सञ्ज्ञा ?

Easy questions:

1. Which word in the verse translates to “the gods”?

2. Which सूत्रम् is used to get the following?
“दैत्य + इन्द्र” = “दैत्येन्द्र”
