After colophon [4b] we have lines here taken from the commentaries (see Siddhāntacandrodaya, our No. 8533) :
तेन संगमि(?) अथ प्रमाणप्रमेयसंशयप्रयोजनदृष्टान्तसिद्धान्तावयवतर्कनिर्णयवादजल्पवितण्डाहेत्वाभासच्छल जातिनिग्रहस्थानानां तत्त्वज्ञानानिःश्रेयसाधिगम इति न्यायस्यादिमे सूत्रे षोडशपदार्थानां प्रतिपादितत्वात् कथं सप्त पदार्था एव निरूपिताः अत आह अन्येषामिति । तथा च तेषां मोक्षोपयोगित्वेन तथा विभाग इत्याकरेऽपि प्रतिपादितत्वादिति भावः। कथमन्तर्भावः। प्रमाणस्य द्रव्यगुणयोरन्तर्भावः। etc. etc. [5A].
Gotama opens his Sūtra with an enumeration of the subjects treated in the book, i.e. with a table of contents. Every item of this table of contents like the table of contents of any other book may be reduced to one or other of the six (or seven) categories of the Vaisesika. The curious reader will find such attempts made in the Dinakarī, etc.
The above lines are also an attempt like that.
