For daily (Vedic recitation), there is no period of suspended study (anadhyāya). Indeed, that is considered a continuous session of Vedic study (brahmasatra). The sacred act of offering Vedic oblations (brahmāhuti), performed with the utterance 'vaṣaṭ,' is meritorious and free from restrictions of suspended study.
