Samhita was written in such manner so that it was easy to recite, remember and follow the rules of the Sanskrit language. There are various topics where true meaning of the verses (shlokas) are hidden. The commentators created multiple tools to understand hidden meanings and to interpret the true meaning. These are collectively called ‘Tantra guna’. These help in the proper understanding and interpretation of Samhita. [[Tantrayukti]] is the most popular among these. Similarly, few terminologies/techniques coined by the commentators like taccheelyadi, kalpana, arthashrya etc. which, are also known as Tantra guna. All these are means for proper adhyayana. [[Pramana]] is also a means for gaining knowledge. Like [[tantrayukti]], it helps in good understanding and interpretation by using different [[pramana]].

The theoretical and practical knowledge are equally important. After Adhyayana, the pupil should apply this theoretical knowledge to improve his practical skills. The pupil should be exposed to the practical application of that theoretical knowledge. Therefore Yogyasutriya adhyaya (the chapter on obtaining practical skill in surgery) is explained for practical proficiency. [Su.Sa.Sutra Sthana 9/3]<ref name=Susruta/> After finishing study, one should make efforts to attain clarity of speech, depths of import, boldness, proficiency, practice, and successful management.
