[ The first व्योमाऽन्तरिक्षा-ऽऽकाशादयस्त्वाकाशपर्यायाः। प्रस्तुते च जीवोजन्तुरसुमान् प्राणी सत्वो भूत इत्यादयो जीवपर्यायाः, शरीरं वपुः कायो देहः कलेवरमित्यादयस्तु शरीरपर्यायाः। पर्यायवचनभेदेऽपि च वस्त्वेकत्वे सर्वैकत्वप्रसङ्गोऽत्र बाधकम् । यत् पुनरिदमुक्तम्-“देह एवायमनुप्रयुज्यमानो दृष्टः" इत्यादि, तच्छरीरसहचरणा-ऽवस्थानादितः शरीरे जीवोपचारः क्रियते । किञ्च, इत्थमपि श्रूयत एव--'गतः स जीवः' 'दह्यतामिदं शरीरम्' इति । किञ्च “ नाणाईत्यादि " यसाच ज्ञानादिगुणयुतो जन्तुः, जडश्च देहः, तत् कथं देह एव जीवः । प्रागिहैव चोक्तम्--' न ज्ञानादिगुणो देहः, मूर्तिमत्त्वात् , घटवत् ; तथा, देहेन्द्रियातिरिक्त आत्मा, तदुपरमेऽपि तदुपलब्धार्थानामनुस्मरणात् , वातायनपुरुषवदिति ' ॥ २७-२८ ॥१५७५-१५७७ ॥
D. C. Here the pratijna is : The word jîva is significant. For, over and above this, it has a vyutpatti and it is a suddha pada. Whatever is a suddha pada and has a vyutpatti is here seen to be one having an artha ( meaning). Ghata, etc., may be mentioned as instances; so is the word jîvne. Therefore it too, is significant. What is not significant is wanting in vyutpatti, and besides, it is not a suddha pada. Dittha, kharavisana, etc., are words of this type; for, the former has no vyutpatti, whereas the latter is not a suddha pada. Such is not the case with the word jîva. Therefore it is significant. The condition that it should have a vyutpatti is stated here to avoid dittha, etc., which are suddha padas, but which are not significant; for, they fail to satisfy both the conditions. Same is the case with khara-visānc; for, though it has a vyutpatti it is not a suddha pada. And therefore it is not significant.
If you believe that simply the body is the artha of java, because we come across the following line, it is not correct, since there is a difference in the synonyms of the body and java :
“ Deha evāyam anuprayujyamūno drstah yathaisc jîvaḥ, enam na hinasti. "
The words of which the synonyms differ, are seen to be non-identical. For instance, ghata is not the same as ākā'sa
