सोपानम् १३: तिङन्त-पञ्च-सोपानी प्रक्रिया-मानचित्रम् (The 5-Stage Verbal Derivation Map)
Sopāna 13: Mastering the sequential 5-stage transformation pipeline that compiles verbal roots (Dhātu) into finished verb forms (Tiṅanta-Pada)
१. दर्शनम् — The 5-Stage Verbal State-Machine Compiler
"विवक्षा ➔ प्रत्यय-विधानम् ➔ इत्-संज्ञा ➔ अङ्ग-कार्यम् ➔ पद-कार्यम्"
vivakṣā ➔ pratyaya-vidhānam ➔ it-saṃjñā ➔ aṅga-kāryam ➔ pada-kāryam
Every finite Sanskrit verb is assembled through a strict sequential 5-stage pipeline. Before conjugating any verb, Pāṇini processes the root through these 5 functional chambers in exact order.
विवक्षा & प्रत्ययः
Semantic intent summons the Lakāra (वर्तमाने लट् ३.२.१२३), followed by the personal Tiṅ ending and Gaṇa Vikaraṇa (कर्तरि शप् ३.१.६८).
इत्-लोपः & अङ्ग-कार्यम्
Dummy tags drop while activating flags (Śit, Pit) that trigger Guṇa mutation of the root (सार्वधातुकार्धधातुकयोः ७.३.८४ ➔ भव).
पदम् & त्रिपादी
Attains legal Pada certification (सुप्तिङन्तं पदम् १.४.१४) and passes through the Tripādī filter to emit the finished verb (भवति).
