v7.c93.584
The 9th chapter deals with *ūha* (adaptation). When applying the principle of *atideśa* certain alterations and adaptations are necessary in the matter of mantras, sāmans and saṁskāras. The word ūha ordinarily means only *tarka* or *vicāraṇā* (reasoning), yet in PMS it has a special meaning.²¹⁷⁹
