## Chapter 530: The Chapter on Veeyana from the Chhakkanndagama
**[4, 1, 67]** Since any number, starting from three, when squared, increases, and when the square root is subtracted from it and squared again, the increase is also obtained; for this reason it is called 'Kriti'. This is the rule of the third type of calculation. There are no other types of calculation besides these three, because no other calculation is found except these three. The meaning is that when calculating 'one by one', it is called 'No-Kriti' calculation, when calculating 'two by two', it is called 'Aavaktvy' calculation, and when calculating 'three, four, and five' in sequence, it is called 'Kriti' calculation. Thus, there are only three types of calculation.
**[67]** Whatever is called 'Granthakriti' is called 'Savya Granthakriti' in the world, in the Vedas, in the times, in the form of word references, and in the form of letters, by means of which the creation of literature is done.
- This 'Granthakriti' is of four types, based on its establishment, substance, and meaning. Among them, 'Bhaav Granthakriti' is of two types, based on 'Aagam' and 'No-Aagam'. Among these, the knowledgeable being who knows 'Praabhrut' is called 'Aagam Bhaav Granthakriti'. 'No-Aagam Bhaav Granthakriti' is of two types, based on 'Shruti' and 'No-Shruti'. Among these, 'Shruti' is of three types: 'Laukik', 'Vaidik', and 'Samayik'. Each of these is of two types, based on substance and meaning 'Shruti'. Among these, 'Shabdaatmak Dravyashruti' is embedded in 'No-Aagam Dravy Granthakriti'. Knowledge about subjects like elephants, horses, tantra, Kautilya, and Vatsyayana's Kamashastra is called 'Laukik Bhaav Shruti Granth'. Knowledge about subjects like 'Dwaadashaanga' is called 'Vaidik Bhaav Shruti Granth'. And knowledge about subjects like 'Nyaya', 'Vaisheshik', 'Lokayat', 'Saankhya', 'Mimaansa', and 'Buddhist' philosophies is called 'Samayik Bhaav Shruti Granth'. The creation of literature that deals with the meaning conveyed by these word references and letters is called 'Shruti Granthakriti'. 'No-Shruti Granthakriti' is of two types, based on 'Abhyantar' and 'Baahya'. Among these, 'Abhyantar No-Shruti Granthakriti' is of fourteen types, based on 'Mithyaatva', 'Three Vedas', 'Haasya', 'Rati', 'Arati', 'Shok', 'Bhay', 'Jugupsa', 'Krodh', 'Maan', 'Maya', and 'Lobh'. And 'Baahya No-Shruti Granthakriti' is of ten types, based on 'Kshetra', 'Vastu', 'Dhan', 'Dhanya', 'Dupad', 'Chatushpad', 'Yaan', 'Shayanasan', 'Kupy', and 'Bhaand'. These 'Kshetraadi Granth' (possessions) are caused by 'Abhyantar Granth', therefore, considering 'Vyavhaar Nay', they are also called 'Granth' by treating the cause as the effect. The abandonment of these is called 'Nirgranthata'. The term 'Granth' for the above fourteen, like 'Mithyaatva', should be understood considering 'Nishchay Nay', because they are the cause of 'Karmabandh'. The abandonment of these is called 'Nirgranthata'.
**[67]** Whatever is called 'Karanakriti' is of two types: 'Mool Karanakriti' and 'Uttar Karanakriti'. Whatever is called 'Mool Karanakriti' is of five types: 'Oralaya Sharira Mool Karanakriti', 'Veubbiya Sharira Mool Karanakriti', ...
