Guņavivecana
Ch. IV (pp. 274-294) Mainly based on NS.
XVII, KD; Vāmana;
and KP. (VIII) Dr. Raghavan's observations on Hemacandra's treatment of Guņas are very pertinent: "On Guņas Hemacandra is a follower of Anandavardhana and he draws upon Mammata and probably from Rājasekhara also... As regards the three Guņas, Hemacandra considers that Mādhurya is of the highest degree in Vipralambha, a little less in Karuna and still less in Sānta. T7EUTSag agri | “This is one of the views recorded later by Jagannātha...” .
Hemacandra's treatment of Guņas is noteworthy for his "reference to strange views on Guņas". One view holds that Ojas, Prasāda, Madhurya, Sāmya and Audārya are the five Guņas (in the sense of Pāgha-dharmas). The other view is these five Guņas belong to certain metres. Hemacandra criticises both.
