Commentary

The words सत् and असत् when in composition with a verb is called गति , when used in the sense of 'respect or love' and 'disrespect or indifference'.
As सत्कृत्य having honored 2.2.18 and 7.1.37 असत्कृत्य, सत्कृतम् or असत्कृतम् 6.2.49 यत् सत् करोति or यदसत् करोति 8.2.71.

Why do we say when meaning 'respect or disrespect'? Observe सत्कृत्वा काण्डं गतः.
