Naigamo manyate vastu tadetadubhayatmakam, Nirvisesam na sâmânyam videṣopi na tadvina.

[the non-distinguished (standpoint); regards, considers; an object, thing; those, aforesaid; possessed of both (specific and general properties); fafa devoid of-without specific property; not; the general property; fan the specific property; also; not; af without that, i.c., general property.]
The non-distinguished (naigama), regards an object as possessing both the aforesaid (general and specific) properties; (because) no particular thing in nature is possessed of a general property unaccompanied with some specific property, nor even of a specific property unaccompanied with the general one common to its class. 5 Explanation.-Naigama (+÷7¬ì à aspect, view, standpoint} means that which does not consider (only) one aspect, that is, which regards both the sâmânya and višesa. This aspect of Naigama is true, because sámánya is not irrelative of viseşa or vice versa. In the third verse we saw that all objects are possessed of both general and specific properties.
