________________ Pancastikaya-samgraha butter, with its own qualities, gets transformed into the mode of clarified-butter (ghee), with its own qualities. In both modes, the cowproduce (gorasa) subsists. If there be no cow-produce (gorasa), on what would these modes subsist? Destruction (uyaya) itself, without origination (utpada) would entail destruction (uyaya) of the existing' (sat) and on destruction (vyaya) of the existing' even knowledge, etc., would cease to exist. If origination (utpada) could take place without permanence (dhrauvya) of the substance (dravya) then there would be origination (utpada) of the 'non-existing' (asat); it would mean origination (utpada) of the 'skyflower' (akasapuspa or gaganakusuma). Acarya Kundakunda's Pravacanasara: ण भवो भंगविहीणो भंगो वा णत्थि संभवविहीणो / उप्पादो वि य भंगो ण विणा धोव्वेण अत्थेण // 2-8 // व्यय रहित उत्पाद नहीं होता तथा उत्पाद रहित व्यय नहीं होता है। और उत्पाद तथा व्यय - ये दोनों नित्य-स्थिररूप पदार्थ के बिना नहीं होते। There is no origination (utpada) without destruction (vyaya); similarly, there is no destruction (vyaya) without origination (utpada). Origination (utpada) and destruction (vyaya) do not take place without the object (artha) that has permanence (dhrauvya) of existence. . .. . . ... 36
