**Karika 109**
Devagam (divine revelation) is not correct; because in our system, no object is truly one-sided (mithya ekant). When an object's one dharma (characteristic) does not consider another dharma, it rejects it, and is then called mithya. When it considers the other dharma and does not reject it, it is considered samyak (right). In reality, an object is not truly one-sided, as the absolute one-sided view (ekantvadi) believes. It is relatively one-sided, and the collection of these relative one-sided views is called anekanta (many-sidedness). How then can it, or the object itself, be called mithya? It cannot be.
An object is regulated by rules, such as injunctions (vidhi) and prohibitions (varana). **"The object is regulated by injunctions, prohibitions, or otherwise. It is necessarily otherwise."** (109)
(If someone doubts how an object, being anekanta, can be regulated by injunctions, leading to a common understanding of the regulated object, the answer is this:) An object, being anekanta, is regulated by injunctions or prohibitions. The object is necessarily both in the form of the injunction or prohibition that regulates it, and in the opposite form, because there is an inseparable connection between injunction and prohibition. Therefore, the injunction or prohibition that regulates the object is primary at that time, and the opposite injunction is secondary. If this is not accepted, if the necessary existence of the object in the form of injunction and prohibition is not accepted, then the object (visheshya) cannot be formed by only an injunction or only a prohibition. Because a prohibition without an injunction, or an injunction without a prohibition, cannot be a characteristic (visheshana), and an object without both injunction and prohibition is like a sky-flower (non-existent).
