svāsādau, "Yadrechā means random occurance without regard for the law of fixed causation; by contrast svabhāva is that which exists as long as the thing exists, for example, respiration, etc. (in the case of living beings)". Cf. TRD, pp. 13-15. Vasu., pp.169, 275. See also Jamkhedkar, p. 184. The theory is called Ņūhiyavāda (natthiyavāda or nāstikavāda) (Vasu., ibid.). It is both bhūtapañcakavādin and accidentalist (jahicchā= yadrcchā). Haribhadra (cighth century CE) also calls the materialist Pingakesa nāhiyavādi (Ska 3, p. 164). Pingakesa too is a bhūtapancakavādin (ibid.).
