: 5:
smoke the linga, and fire the lingin, and on his recollecting this connection, while drawing the inference.
But in the case of the soul, a lingin, no connection of it, whatsoever is directly perceived with any one or more of its lingas. Such being the case, there is no room left for the recollection of an inseparable connection between the soul and its linga and hence there is no chance left for establishing the existence of the soul by anumāna.
Moreover, if the inseparable connection were to be observed in the case of the soul and its linga, the soul would be directly perceived, and in that ease, there would be no necessity to
infer its existence.
It is said:
न य जीवलिङ्गसम्बन्धदरिसणमभू जओ पुणो सरओ । तलिङ्गदरिसणाओ जीवे सम्पच्चओ होज्जा ।। ३ ।। (१५५१)
Na ya jivalingasambandhadarisaṇamabhū jaö puŋo saraö | Tallingadarisaṇāö jîvè sampaccaö hojjā. 3 (1551)
[ न च जीवलिङ्गसम्बन्धदर्शनमभूद् यतः पुनः स्मरतः । तलिङ्गदर्शनाजीवे सम्प्रत्ययो भवेत् ॥ ३ ॥ (१५५१)
Na ca jivalingasambandhadarśanamabhūd yataḥ punaḥ smarataḥ | Tallingadarśanājjivè sampratyayo bhavèt. 3 (1551)]
Trans.-3. There has not been (previously) seen (any) connection between the soul and its linga, the recollection of which, along with the sight of its linga, can lead (us) to a conviction about the (existence of) the soul. (1551).
