(Hari-nāmāmṛta-vyākaraṇa-vṛtti: 930)“A kartā (agent) is called the svatantra (the independent agent), a hetu-kartā (causative agent) the prayojaka (the engaging agent)m and a prayojakādhīna-kartā (an agent under the control of a prayojaka) the prayojya (an engaged agent). Thus he [i.e., a kartā (agent)] is of three types [i.e., an agent can be (1) an independent agent who both causes and performs an action, (2) an engaging agent who causes an action to be performed but does not perform it personally, and (3) an engaged agent who does not cause the action to be performed but performs it under the control of an engaging agent].”
