Vol. XXI, No. 1 Hetubinduţikāloka. A writer of the Vādanyāya called Syādvadakesari who is supposed to be the same as Akalankadeva, is said to have defeated the opponents and established the Jaina Nyāva. Vadirāja pays homage to him by saying tärkikalokamastakamani' in the Nyāyaviniscayavivarana, and Prabhachandra "Syādvādak sarisatasatatīvramūrtiḥ" in the Nyāyak umudachandra.
According to Syādvädkeśari. Durvekamiśra says, every entity is anaikāntika (having infinite characters), which is the basis of arthakriyā (casual efficiency). Kulabhūsaņa, a commentator on the Vāda nyaya explains this view that "anyathānupapatti" is the main character of reality, and arthakriyā is possible only in that character.

Anyathānupapannatvam yasyāsau heturişyate.
Draşța ntau dvāva pistām vāyācā tau hi na kāraṇam.15 He then, on the basis of above view, tries to point out defects in the theory of absolute momentariness and absolute eternalism statiog that causal efficiency is not possible in either of these theories of reality. Clarifying his own position, Kulabhūşaņa asks whether momentary character bas causal efficiency during its own existence or in another. If the first alternative is accepted, the entire universe would exist only for a moment. The effect produced by a certain cause during its own existence would be a cause of others, despite being caused itself, and this series will never end. The argument
Cause makes an effect during its own existence and an effect comes into being during the existence of others" is not favoured, since an effect is supposed to be originated during the existence of its own cause and not of another." Otherwise, an effect cannot take place and there will be defect of “Samana ptaravirodha", according to which the effects would emerge in the distant future.

The next moment is also not powerful to generate the thing, since it is not a creator. Otherwise, what would be the difference betweev sat and asat, and kşaņika and ..kşaņika. We could conclude,
