'counter-positive' is used to get qualified-ness of determinant by the relation which determines the state of being determinant of counter-positive-ness. Therefore there is no fault of too narrow application in the inference; "it has fire because of smoke even though the wood etc. which has smoke etc., by the temporal relation, exists in lake etc. by the relation conjunction. That counter-positive-ness means the counter-positive-ness of the absence of the reason. Determined by the determinant of the state of being reason. By the relation which determines the state of being a reason also should be known. Therefore there is no fault of too wide application in the inference; “this is different from soul because of substance-ness' though substance-ness is the counter-positive of the absence of substance-ness by temporal relation which absence dose not exists with its counterpositive by the relation which determines the counter-positiveness that absence exists in soul, which is the substratum of absence of that which is to be established.
