## 100] Sarvarthasiddhi
[1132 6 239] Due to the rise of Mithyadarshana, they make assumptions and generate faith in them. From this, there arises Matyajnan, Shrutajnan, and Vibhangajnan. Samyakdarshan, on the other hand, generates faith in the understanding of the true meaning of the Tattvas. From this, there arises Matijnan, Shrutajnan, and Avadhijnan.
8 240. It is said that there are two types of Pramanas. The parts of Pramana are called Nayas. They should be explained after the Pramanas. Therefore, the next Sutra says:
Naigama, Sangraha, Vyavahara, Rijusutra, Shabda, Samabhirudha, and Evambhuta are the seven Nayas. ||33||
8 241. Their general and specific characteristics should be explained. The general characteristic is that the application of a Nay is the one that, without contradiction, leads to the attainment of the true nature of the specific Sadhya, based on the main reason in a multi-faceted object. It is of two types: Dravyarthic and Paryayarthic. Dravya means general, Utsarga, and Anuvritti. The Nay that deals with this is called Dravyarthic Nay. Paryaya means specific, Apavada, and Vyavritti. The Nay that deals with this is called Paryayarthic Nay. The further divisions of these two Nayas are Naigama, etc.
8 242. Now, their specific characteristics are explained: Naigama is the Nay that grasps only the concept in the unmanifested meaning. For example, seeing a man carrying a sword in his hand, another man thinks: 1. -Jnanam Avadhijnan - Mu. 2. -Vanaprayo - Mu.
