example of suggestion based upon the power of meaning and similar to resonance." (Trans. K.Kris. pp. 83, ibid). The illustration cited is "evamvadini devarṣau." etc.
It is two-fold, viz. (i) svataḥ-sambhavi and (ii) prauḍhokti-siddha. Dhv. II. 24 observes:
"prauḍhoktimātra-niṣpannaśarīraḥ, sambhavi svataḥ,
arthópi dvividho jñeyaḥ
vastuno'nyasya dipakaḥ.”
artha-śaktyudbhavā’nuraṇana-rūpa-vyangye dhvanau yo vyañjako'rtha uktas tasya'pi dvau prakārau - kaveḥ kavi-nibaddhasya vā vaktuḥ prauḍhokti-mātranispanna-śarīra ekaḥ svatas sambhavi ca dvitīyaḥ."
"The sense which suggests another sense is also two-fold: (1) Existing only in ornate expression and (2) Naturally existing." (Dhv. II. 24)
"The sense which has been pointed out as the suggester of a second sense in suggestion (of the form of resonance based upon the power of sense) is also of two kinds. The first is that whose existence is real only in the ornate expression either of a poet himself or of a character created by the poet. The second exists naturally." (Trans. K.Kris. pp. 87, 89, ibid)
We will go to see that Hemacandra and some others do not take these two as separate varieties. All these three suggesters could be of the form of vastu or idea or alamkara i.e. a figurative expression. The vyangya which is suggested also could be likewise two-fold. Thus in all twelve varieties are possible in artha-śaktyudbhava-dhvani.
At Dhv. III. 1, A. observes that,
"evam vyangya-mukhena eva dhvaneh pradarśite sa-prabhede svarūpe, punar vyañjaka-mukhena etat prakāśyate :
"a-vivakṣita-vācyasya pada-vākya-prakāśatā,

-
tad anyasya anuraṇana
rupa-vyangyasya ca dvaneḥ."
"So far the nature and varieties of suggestion have been pointed out in detail from the stand-point of the suggested. Now the same shall be set forth from the standpoint of the suggester.
