[Chapter 8: The attainment of the fruit is established only through effort. On the one hand, the arrangement of the object of attainment through the right knowledge of destiny, and on the other hand, the attainment of the fruit even without the knowledge of destiny, is seen. From this, the sole existence of effort with right knowledge is not correct.]
Both and the inexpressible - the sole existence of both is not the same for the knowers of the Syadvada-Nyaya; because there is mutual contradiction in them. Even in the sole existence of the inexpressible, it is appropriate to speak of the expressible. ||9|| 'The knowers of the Syadvada-Nyaya do not consider the destiny and effort to be the same; because there is mutual contradiction in them. Accepting the sole existence of the inexpressible, it is not appropriate to call them inexpressible - because it would contradict one's own words.
The faultless method of the sole existence of destiny and effort - what is desired or undesired, favorable or unfavorable, happens or arises without the expectation of one's own intellect, should be considered as caused by one's own destiny - because in it, effort is secondary and destiny is primary. And what is desired or undesired, favorable or unfavorable, happens or arises with the expectation of one's own intellect, should be considered as caused by one's own effort; because in it, destiny is secondary and effort is primary. ||9||
Explanation - The arrangement of both destiny and effort is taken together with the expectation of each other. In the absence of one, the arrangement of the other does not happen. In reality, the attainment of the fruit happens only through the combination of both.
