Panini is the standard, rather Panini has been the 'only' standard in recent decades, helping us largely with our interaction with Samskrit literature, but certainly our over-dependence on Panini has kept us away from the greater picture of Samskrit and the greater use of Samskrit as a multi-dialect language ! Panini made great rules creating strings to hold words and phrases in a scientific manner, but the words that could not pass the test were no less correct in the tradition ! Panini was not at fault, perhaps it is we who have put extra weightage on Panini as the sole attesting authority on deciding what is a standard usage and what is not ! Narayana Bhattatiri in his Apaaniniiyapraamaanyasaadhanam has dwelt on this point. If I can't make use of ' satyam eva jayate ' today calling it 'archaic' then whose fault it is ?
