CHAPTER 111
• The first two verses support the mutual
identity of the general and the particular : ... सामण्णम्मि विसेसो विसेसपक्खे य वयणविणिवेसो ।
दव्वपरिणाममण्णं दाएइ तयं च णियमेइ ॥१॥ एगंतणिव्विसेसं एयंतविसेसियं च वयमाणो। दव्वस्स पज्जवे पज्जवा हि दवियं णियत्तेइ ॥२॥
(1) Sometimes the particular is mentioned with reference to the general, while sometimes the general is mentioned with reference to the particular. Such mixed references go to prove that apart from the general there is such a thing as its particular that is different from it or from its transformation, however, that particular is in no way different from the general.
(2) A person who refers exclusively to the general divests it of its particulars ; similarly a person who talks of the particulars exclusively divorces them from their general.
