On reasoning from anvaya...
31 Naişkarmyasiddhi 3.26 :
तदा विशेषणात्वं विशेष्यत्वं त्वमस्तथा ।
लक्ष्यलक्षणसंबन्धस्तयोः स्यात्प्रत्यगात्मना ।। 32 Naiskarnyasiddhi 3.10 ;
मिदु:खित्वं त्वमर्थस्य तदर्थेन विशेषणात् ।
प्रत्यक्ता च तदर्थस्य त्वंपदेनास्य संनिधेः ।। 33 Naişkarmyasiddhi 3.9 :
सामानाधिकरण्यादेर्घटेतरखयोरिव ।
व्यावृत्तेः स्यादवाक्यार्थ: साक्षान्नस्तत्त्वमर्थयाः ।। 34 On bheda and samsarga as described, see Kumarila, Tantravārttika on
Sabarabhāşya 2 1.46 (Anandāśrama Sanskrit Series edition (vol. 97.2, 2nd ed.; Poona, 1970), pp. 436-437; Helārjāja's commentary on Vakyapadiya 3.1.5 (Vākyapadiya of Bhartrhari with the commentary of Helārāja, kānda III, part 1, critically edited by K. A. Subramania Iyer (Deccan College Monograph Series 21); Poona : Deccan College, 1963), p. 15, lines 2-5. Earlier, Patanjali, in the Mahābhasya (edited by F. Kielhorn, 3rd revised edition by K. V. Abhyankar; Poona ; Bhandarkar Oriental Research Institute, 1962, 1965, 1972) on 2.1.1 (vol. I, p. 364, lines 24-28), mentions that bheda and samsarga are considered to constitute the relation (called samarthya) which holds between the meanings of terms that are eligible for composition. In his comm. entary on Naiş karm yasiddhi 3.3, Jñānottama remarks that bheda obtains between two things signified by nominal forms with different endings, samsarga between things signified by nominal forms with the same ending. Other details need not be considered here. See Hiriyanda's
note on this passage (pp. 254-255). 35 Naişkarmyasiddhi p. 123, line 2. 36 See verse 3.9 and, to mention only two additional passages from the
Naiskarmyasiddhi, p. 109, line 5 and p. 124, line 1 (see note 37). In the same context, other Advaitins speaks of an indivisible unqualified sentence meaning (akhandavāk yārtha, akhandärtha). Some pertinent passages are briefly discussed in my review of An encyclopaedic dictionary of Sanskrit on historical principles, volume one, part 2, appearing in
Indian Linguistics. 37 Naişkarmyasiddhi p. 124, line 1; gagafagfarraysafe to faca I 38 Naiskarmyasiddhi 3.28 ;
यावद्यावन्निरस्यायं देहादीप्रत्यगञ्चति । तावत्तावत्तदर्थोऽपि स्वमर्थ प्रविविक्षति ।।
