लुपॱसदॱ चरॱजपॱ जभॱदहॱ दशॱगॄभ्यो भावॱगर्हायाम् ONPANINI 31024

After lup लुप् sad सद् car चर् jap जप् jabha जभ daha दह daza दश gRR गॄ gRRgRR गॄगॄ, add /yaG to despise the state.

/yaG usually means repetition or intensity by << dhAtorekAc..., but after these verbs it can only express contempt. "Cuts a lot" must be expressed as bhRzal lunAti भृशल्लुनाति or something.

lolupyate लोलुप्यते "cuts badly"
sAsadyate सासद्यते "sits badly"
caNcUryate चण्चूर्यते "walks badly"
jaJjapyate जंजप्यते
jaJjabhyate जंजभ्यते
dandahyate दन्दह्यते
dandazyate दन्दश्यते
nijegilyate निजेगिल्यते "swallows badly"

/yaG is a /sanAdi.

Why do we say bhAve भावे "the state"?

This /yaG can be used to express contempt for the WAY the action is performed —

mantraJ jaJjapyate brAhmaNaH मन्त्रं जंजप्यते ब्राह्मणः "The brahmin recites the veda badly."

...but not to express contempt for the very fact that the action is performed. In that case the contempt must be expressed some other way, such as using the word dhik धिक् —

dhiG धिङ्, mantraJ japati vRSalaH
मन्त्रं जपति वृषलः
"WTF, a zUdra शूद्र is reciting the /veda!"

That reciting is a bad thing in itself even if zUdro na jaJjapyate शूद्रो न जंजप्यते, the **zUdra- शूद्रॱ recites correctly.

I don't get this idea that the same action can be virtuous or a sin depending on who your parents were.

That's okay. You are not born from Hindu parents, so you are not supposed to get it.
