Commentary

After a root which has an indicatory अनुदात्त vowel (अनुदात्तेत्) or an indicatory ङ् (ङित्), the affixes are those of the आत्मनेपद।
The word 'atmanepada' here governs all the subsequent sutras up to sutra 1.3.77 inclusive, and is understood in them all; and will not therefore be repeated. Thus of the verb आस the final अ is anudatta and is इत्. It is therefore an atmanepadi verb. As अस्ति. So षूङ्—सूते, शीङ् शेते.
