127 Example of Vyāpya Hetu :
परिणामी शब्दः कृतकत्वात् । य एवं स एवं दृष्टो, यथा घटः ।
कृतकश्चायं तस्मात् परिणामीति । यस्तु न परिणामी स न कृतको दृष्टो, यथा बन्ध्यास्तनंधयः । कृतकश्चायं तस्मात् परिणामीति ॥ ६५ ॥ 65. Pariņāmi śabdaḥ kritakatvāt. Ya evaņ sa evam drişto yathā ghataḥ. Kritakaśchāyam tasmāt pariņāmiti.
Yastu na pariņāmi sa na kritako drişto, yathā vandhyāstanandhayah.
Kritakaśchāyam tasmāt pariņāmiti.
65. Sound is subject to modification, because it is a product.
All products are seen as liable to modifications e. g. a pitcher. This is a product, so this is subject to modification.
That which is not a product is not seen as liable to modifications as the son of a barren woman.
This is a product, so this is subject to modification".
Commentary
In Aphorism 59, it has been mentioned that there are six kinds of Aviruddha Upalabdhi in Vidhi. In the present aphorism an example of the first variety viz., Aviruddha Vyāpyopalabdhi is given.
1. "Here sound falls in the larger category of products which is characterised by the quality of being subject to modification. Therefore being Vyāpya (included ) in the larger class Vyāpaka it is liable to have the whole class predicated of itself.”'
