like universal being (सत्ता सामान्य) distinct from the particulare. Question : यदि तर्हि न बाह्या आतिः अस्तिबुद्धिरपि कथमेकरूपा प्रतिभाति नहि बहिनिमित्त. मन्तरेण एकाकारा सा उत्पत्तिमती युक्ता। There must be something objective to account for the subjective feeling. Answer: We do not deny that there must be something objective to account for the subjective feeling. What we say is that that something is not alla
but it, not the universal but the particular. Question : How पञ्जिका is it that only certain particulars give rise to the notion p. 69a of a certain olla, and not all ? Answer: That difference
lies in the nature of things. Certain drugs cure a certain disease, and not anything and everything. In the same way certain particulars. (व्यक्ति) give rise to a certain notion of generality (बुद्धिरेव तुलयाकारप्रतिभासा सत्सदिति शब्दश्च दृश्यते
इति बुद्धिरेव भिद्यते). न्या. प्र. ७. अत्रोच्यते। सत्यमेतत् । The Siddhantin admits the force of the
P. 30. criticism and explains that his example भावः etc. is intended to 119-21, illustrate विरुद्ध which is defined as 'विपक्षमात्रव्यापी ' of भाव although
the real existence is a dogrma of the non-Buddhist, and not bis own. One and the same example can illustrate several दोषs whose varieties it is intended to show. Therefore, it dose not matter if the given illustration of विरुद्ध is also one of आश्रयासिद्ध.
This is explained in the Pafijikā. P.69 ab एवं मन्यतेऽस्मान् प्रत्याश्रयासिद्ध एवायम्-According to us, Buddhists
it is no doubt a case of आश्रयासिद्ध. But it is given here as an illustration of fate from the standpoint of other schools. Moreover, it is to be noted that from different stand
points one and the same example can illustrate different हेत्वाभासs. न्या. प्र. व. आह-एवं विरुद्धभावः सर्वत्र &c. -Read एवं विरुद्धभावः for एवमविरुद्धभावः I P. 30,1. 22 is clearly explained in the Paijika:--द्रव्यत्वादिदृष्टान्ततो यदि
पत्रिका विरुद्धधर्मयोजना भवद्भिरत्र क्रियते...अयमत्र भावार्थः । सर्वस्यापि हेतोर्विशेषविरुद्धधर्मयोजनायां P. 69b दृष्टान्तवशेन क्रियमाणायां विरुद्धत्वमेव स्यात् etc. तथाहि-अनित्यः कृतकत्वात् घटवदिति योऽयं
भवता सिद्धाभ्युपगमः [ for शुद्धाभ्युपगमः we may read सिद्धाभ्युपगमः ]. तत्राऽयम.
स्माभिकियो हेतर्वक्तं शक्यते--यथाऽयमनित्यत्वं साधयति तथा तद्विपरीतं पाक्यवादिकमपि न्या.प्र.दृ. साधयति । तथाहि-एवमपि वक्तुं शक्यते यथा कृतकत्वाद् घटवदनित्यः [शब्दः]
P. 30 तथा कृतकत्वात् घटवत् पाक्योऽपीति। न चेदमिष्यते. इति प्रेयर्थिः--If on the 11.22-25 strength of the example घटवात् , you urge that शब्द will
