________________ 24 negation. It is impossible to ignore the principle underlying this division: it corresponds to a classification of judgement based on the relation of subject and attribute, first into positive (Vidhi) and negative (Anupalabddhi-pratisedha), whilo the positive judgement is then divided according as it is based on identity i. e. is analytic (Syabhāvānumāna), or is based on causality, ompiric (Karyānumāna). Reduced to a Kantian form we can recognize, without too much pressing, the ideas a priori of substance and attribute, being, non-being, identity and cause, a list which has sufficient affinity with the Kantian categories to be more than a mere curiosity of speculation.... The division of the syllogism in this way is not recorded of Dignāga and by Sures'vara is expressly attributed to Dharmakîrti. This view is confirmed by a passage from Dharmakirti quoted by Cridhara, where it is said: “The rule according to which there exists an indissoluble connexion between ideas or objects does not arise from observation or non-observation, but from the laws of causality and identity, which have a universal application. There is of course nothing inconsistent here with the view of Dignāgs, which rather acquires greater precision by the new matter thus added." Keith's I. L. A. p. p. 102-103.
