SAHĶDAYĀLOKA and sādhyavasāna are six basics which explain the expression sad-vidhā. Thus the base of classification is six-fold giving rise to sixteen varieties.
Dipikā of Jayanta-Bhatta has the following - sadbhir upādhibhī rudhiprayojanópādāna-laksaņā-āropa-adhyavasānair vidhāḥ prakārāḥ kalpanīyā asyā iti sadvidhā. na tu sat-pakara prakarantara-sambhavasya pratipaditatvāt. bhidyate ābhyām iti bhedau, upādānalakṣaṇe rūdhi-prayojane-vā adyau bhedau, tābhyām prakstābhyām āropā'dhyavasānābhyam prathamam uktatvāt tābhyām ādyabhedābhyām saha iti grantha-samgatiḥ -
Jayanta seems to follow Sridhara. He says that by sadvidhā it is not suggested that laksaņā is six-fold only - na tu sat-prakārā. But actually these six are the upādhis, the attributes, which are at the base of the classification of lakṣaṇā which are rūdhi, prayojana, upādāna, laksana, āropa and adhyavasāna.
The Kävyaprakāśa - darpana of Viśvanātha has the following : esāñca sodaśānām lakṣaṇā bhedānām iha a-darsitāni udāharaṇāni mama Sahityadarpaņe avagantavyāni. -
şadvidhā iti. - rūdhi - prayojana-upādāna-laksana-āropa-adhyavasānaiḥ sadbhir upādhibhir dvidhā uktā. şodaśaprakāra yasyāḥ sā șaļvidhā na tu sat-prakārā.
Viśvanātha also follows the lead of Sridhara and Jayanta, who as noted above take the six as the attributes or principles of classification. They do not take 'six' as the number of varieties, which for them is sixteen and not six.
Viśvanātha observes that illustrations which are not furnished by Mammata have to sought from his Sāhitya-darpana. He also adds -
adyabhedābhyām prathamóktópādhibhyām rūdhi-prayojanābhyām saha, yad vā prathamam rūļhi-prayojanābhyām sāmānyata uktam laksaņādvayam bhidyate. ādya-bhedābhyām iti. bhedāv upādāna-laksaņa - [lakṣita) laksaņe. tābhyām saha iti grantha-samgatih.
The Sāhitya-cūdāmani of Bhatta Gopāla has -
nigamayati - laksaneti. - nanu sāropā sādhyavasānā iti dve gaunau, dve ca śuddhe iti tāścatasraḥ, tat katham vā sāļvidhyam iti atra āha-ādyeti. prāg uktau bhedau upādāna-laksana-laksanau tābhyām saha iti.
Thus, he follows the earlier pattern as suggested by Prof. Gajendragadkar.
