169. A vâkyam (meaning in Tamil a sentence) is simply a phrase or series of phrases, employed in accordance with a very ancient "Transnumeration" table, called "Kadapayadi", closely analogous to the present writer's Transnumeration Table, published at page 37 of his "Secret of Memory". It is generally believed that the vâkya process is based on the Ârya Siddhânta, but this is by no means well established.
