Add a अ after the R ऋ of sRj सृज् dRz दृश् before a non-/kit affix that starts with a serious.

This debars the /guNa from pugantalagh....

The R ऋ of course becomes r र् before that a अ by ikoyaNa इकोयण.

Roughly reworded: "some of the affixes that would ordinarily cause guNa of R ऋ, in these two roots replace R ऋ with ra र".

dRz दृश् + /tumun → **draSTum द्रष्टुम्

dRz दृश् + /luG /tip → **adrAkSIt अद्राक्षीत्

dRz दृश् + /tRc → !**draSTR- द्रष्टृॱ

!**sraSTum स्रष्टुम्

!**sraSTavya- स्रष्टव्यॱ

!**draSTavya- द्रष्टव्यॱ

But before a /kit, this rule does not work, and of course kGitica debars pugantalagh... —

dRz दृश् + /kta → **dRSTa- दृष्टॱ

and before a non-serious, this rule does not work, and we get gbS as usual —

dRz दृश् + /yu → dRz दृश् + ana- अनॱ → darzana- दर्शनॱ n

How come there is no drag द्रग् in devadRgbhyAm देवदृग्भ्याम्? The /bhyAm is not /kit, and this dRk दृक् is a root according to kvibantAdhAt... , so shouldn't this rule apply?

Because of a sort of commonsense general principle, not mentioned by /pANini —

"svarUpa-grahaNe tat-pratyaye kAryam स्वरूपॱग्रहणे तत्प्रत्यये कार्यम्"

in other words —

"rules that mention verb roots work only before verb affixes, not before noun affixes"
