BIBLIOGRAPHY BALCEROWICZ 2000 BALCEROWICZ 2001 not have to indicate (one's own purpose in argument), because a particular understanding of the person to be taught is the purpose of the matter to be indicated to him. For the person to be taught can be someone slow-witted or someone sharpwitted. Out of them, for the one who is slow-witted a particular understanding of the matter in question cannot be accomplished without the pronouncement of the thesis, neither (can this be accomplished) for someone who has understood the linguistic convention [govering the pronouncement of the five-mernbered proof formula of the Naiyayika and others (and) who even is not slow-witted, because when the pronouncement of this thesis is not made thereby a the point of defeat can be announced, in compliance with NS 5.2.12: "[The proof formula) is deficient even when one of the members) is missing." However, if for someone sharp-witted-who has acquired the understanding of the matter in question merely through the pronouncement of the logical reason, even without the pronouncement of this [thesis)--this (pronouncement of the thesis) were considered) purposeless, then also the pronouncement of the logical reason would [have to be considered) purposeless, because it can be empirically observed that soneone (may acquire the understanding of the matter in question merely through the pronouncement of a person who has certain knowledge and who is not deceitful which has merely the form of the thesis "There on the hilly there is fire", or similar.' This opinion is subsequently rejected by Prabhacandra as follows. First, we have to state the thesis in order to show what our argument aims at (NKC p. 437.4-11), here Prabbicandra uses the analogy of an archer, well-known from NA 16 (widerspra, n. 107). Secondly, even if our argument can be understood by stating the thesis alone, we still have to formulate the logical reason as the rule that warrants the correctness of our reasoning (NKC p. 437.12-438.4). 10 CE.
