पतञ्जलि lays down six causes of अनुपलब्धि ( महाभाष्य IV. 1. 3). See Introduction. The eight causes of mentioned in

(1) देशशेष includes अतिदूर and अतिसामीप्य. इन्द्रियघात and मनोऽनवस्थान.
(2) इन्द्रियदोष (3) विषयदोष
सौक्ष्म्य, and
( 4 ) अर्थान्तरदोष includes व्यवधान, अभिभव and समानाभिहार. Sovani is right in remarking that all these can be reduced to two - इन्द्रियदोष and विषयदोष ( See p. 405). माठर lays down the causes of अनुपलब्धि of असत् ( non-existent) things even— इदानीमसतां चतुर्धा भवति । तत्रोच्यते- प्राक्प्रध्वंसेतरेतरात्यन्ताभावभेदात्...... एवमियं द्वादशधानुपलब्धिः । सतामष्टधा ह्यसतां चतुर्थी ॥
