Regarding the gramatical rule governing sudhapaayam & nirjaraavaasam in
the shloka of Jagannaatha-PaNdita:
I am making an effort to explain the usage being discussed here:
Both sudhaapaayam & nirjaraavaasam are kriyaa-visheShanam avyayam
(associated to pibanti & vasanti respectively). This kind of
kriyaavisheShaNam has been expalined at length by PaaNini. In the
present context, both the adverbs (sudhaapaayam & nirjaraavaasam) come
under the specific category of kriyaavisheShaNam, where a dhaatu-form is
coupled with an analogy/comparison (upamaana) - "upamaana can either be
to the subject or the object".
sudhaapaayam = drinking like drinking elixir (upamaanam -sudha- links to
the object, payaH) - Drinking your water like one drinks elixir.
nirjaraavaasam = living the way deva's live (upamaanam -nirjara- links
to the subject, naraaH). - Those men live on earth like the way deva's
live.
In both the cases, the resulting word is a kriyaaviseShaNam avyayam.
Other examples for similar usage, from literature:
*ikShubhanjam* babhanja - broke (it) like breaking sugar cane
*gajabhanjam* babhanja - broke it the way an elephant breaks (both these
from prakriyaa-sarvaswam)
*piShtapeSham* pinaShmi - I crush like recrushing the crushed
(duuta-vaakyam prabhandham - not bhaasa's play).
*cHinnapaatam* apatat: (he) fell like falling of something cut down
(naaraayaNiiyam).- Sorry for poor translation !.
Hope my explanation makes sense !
Thanks...

One Sri Balaji Srinivasan posted the URL where the whole book and its commentary in
Skt. by the authour
himself is available. I have downloaded the entire thing running into several pages.
I am intending to present these one by one to the group. There are 50 such puzzles in
all. There was some problem in downloading which I got sorted out by speaking to my
son in the US. It is now only in read -only format.
