________________ 194 Illuminator of Jatna Tenets | Lustre X Whitman says, “It (grass) is the handkerchief of the Lord"; the hymnal says, "God is love", and Croce maintains that "art is vision or intuition". These are, apparently, statements, but there is a good reason why an epistemologist should say neither that such sentences ought to be believed nor that they ought not to be believed." (James Willard Oliver: "The Problem of Epistemology", The Journal of Philosophy, Vol. LVII, No. 9, p. 299). ४४. तदर्थनिरपेक्ष संज्ञाकर्म नाम। जातिद्रव्यगुणक्रियालक्षणनिमित्तमनपेक्ष्य संकेतमात्रेणैव संज्ञाकरणं नाम sind, 441—377727764 39T8uru sfa ATH I. 44. tadarthanirapekşaṁ samjñākarma nāma. jāti-dravya-guna-kriyālakṣaṇanimittam anapekşya 'samketamātrenaiva samjñākaranam nāma bhaṇyate, yathā-anakşarasya upadhyāya iti nāma. (Aph.) The act of labelling a name irrespective of its connotation is a case of a name labelled arbitrarily.

(Aph.) The labelling of a name on the representation though without the attributes connoted by the word with a view to its identification with the real object) by an arbitrary will is an illustration (of the second kind) of transference. (XLV) (Gloss) Sthāpanā means the determination of a substance which is devoid of the meaning (expressed by the predicate) through propositions like "He is this (person)." For instance, the image of a dean is a şthāpanā dean. (The sthāpanā is of two kinds, viz.) (i) sthāpanā of the Jain Education International For Personal & Private Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
