Commentary
That which is related to the action as the site where the action is performed by reason of the agent or the object being in that place is called अधिकरण or location.
That in which the action is supported or located is called adhara. As कटे आस्ते he is seated on the mat. कटे शेते he is sleeping on the mat. स्थाल्यां पचति he cooks in the pot. The Adhikarana takes the 7th case-affix.
