Prayojanavati Lakşaņā or Anekārtha words in it, though the word (Śabda) Adhama suggests it.
in order that these senses become suggestive, the presence of certain circumstances is required. These circumstances are, as Mammaţa mentions them (K. P. III. 1 & 2): "That operation of the threefold sense, which, owing to the peculiarity of the speaker, the person addressed, the modulation or intonation of voice (Kāku), the sentence, the expressed meaning, the proximity of another person, the occasion, the place, the time, etc., become the cause of the apprehension of another sense in the case of persons gifted with creative imagination, is suggestion itself." And "Here the person addressed means the person spoken to. Kāku means a modification of the voice. Prastāva means context (Prakarana). Arthasya means, 'of the (three) senses': the expressed, the indicated and the suggested." The main point of this quotation is that, while Vācyārtha is understood by all, the Vyangyārtha requires Pratibhā or imaginative ability. Again, as Ārthivyañjanā is based on Vācya, Lakşya and Vyangya senses, we may note that Ārthivyañjanā creates the apprehension of another sense, viz., a Vyangyartha which is different from the original Vācyártha, Laksyārtha and Vyangyartha as well. Thus a Vyañjaka Vyangyārtha may enable us to apprehend even a third Vyangyartha. This helps prove that Vyañjanā is a separate Vștti. Peculiar Factors Analysed
Hemachandra's list of peculiar circumstances contains ten factors, while Mammața gives nine factors only. The additional factor in the Kāvyānuśāsana is Ceștā which is understood in Mammața's Ādi. Thus, according to Hemachandra, when the speaker is a special person (Vaktr visesa), or the subject is peculiar (Pratipadyavisesa), or when there is a peculiar Kāku, or a typical sentence (Vākyavišeşa) or a Vácyavisesa or the person nearby is peculiarly connected with the subject, or the context, or place or time or gestures, etc. - all these circumstances give rise to a suggested sense (Vyangyartha) which is distinct
