Karmagrantha, Bhagya, and the four statements are evidence. In summary, the solution can be reached by assuming that the non-visual perception is practical before the completion of sensory attainment.
(2) In Vigrahamat, non-visual perception is considered before the completion of sensory attainment, but it is in the form of power, i.e., in the form of destruction and pacification, not in the form of use. This solution is given based on the commentary of the 46th verse of the ancient fourth Karmagrantha:
"Trayanam apyachakshurvarshanam tasyanaaharakaavasyayaamapi labdhimadhisyaabhyupagamat."
Question: Why is visual perception not considered in the same way as non-visual perception, which is considered to be in the form of use or destruction and pacification before the completion of sensory attainment?
Answer: Visual perception refers to the perception generated by the specific sense organ of the eye. Such perception is considered only when the material eye exists. Therefore, visual perception is considered only after the completion of sensory attainment. Non-visual perception does not refer to the general use of any one sense organ; but it refers to the general use that occurs from a material sense organ other than the eye, from the material mind, or from the material sense organ and material mind + absence, only in the form of destruction and pacification. This is why non-visual perception is considered both before and after the completion of sensory attainment.
