TATTVASANGRAHA : CHAPTER X.
It has been argued by the other party (under Tett 561, above) that ** the Yarns and the Cloth are distinot things, because their makers and potencies are different, etc. etc."
The answer to this is as follows:
TEXTS (579-590). IP IT IS THE DIFFERENCE OF THE CLOTH FROM THE VERY FIRST YARNS THAT IS SOUGHT TO BE PROVED, THEN THERE IS THE IRRESISTIBLE DBFECT OF FUTILITY THOSE OTHER YARNS ALSO THAT APPEAR LATER ON, IN ANOTHER STATE
(FORM), CAPABLE OF A PABTICULAR KIND OF USEFUL ACTION, -ARE NOT ENTIRELY DIFFERINT IN CHARACTER FROM THOSE
FIRST YARNS.—(679-580)
COMMENTARY.
If what you are seeking to establish is the clifference of the Cloth from those first yarns which have not yet aequired the name of Cloth, then you are proving what is already admitted. In fact, all things being momentary, it is admitted by us that the later yarns which subsequently come to be called Cloth are actually produced from those first yarns, - though (as a matter of fact) it is not possible for one thing to be produced out of another totally different from it.-(579-580)
If, on the other hand, what is sought to be proved is the difference of the Cloth from those yarns that have come into existence at the same time as the Cloth, then, the Reasons adduced are such as are not admitted, Unproven'. This is what is shown in the following
TEXTS (581-583).
THD INTENTION BEING TO INDICATE THEIR USE IN THE ACCOMPLISHMENT OF A SINGLE PURPOSE,—IF EACH YARN WERE SPOKEN OF SEPARATELY, THEN THERE WOULD BE THE DEFECTS OF (a) PROLIXITY, (6) INCAPACITY, AND (C) TUTILITY;-WITH A VIEW TO AVOID THESE, THINKING THAT THERE WOULD BE SIMPLICITY OF USAGE IF ALL THE YARNS WERE MENTIONED BY A SINGLE NAME, PEOPLE MAKING USE OF WORDS HAVE BROUGHT FORTH THE SINGLE TERM AND APPLIED IT TO THE YARNS. BUT THESE (YARNS) DO NOT SERVE TO PROVE THI Cloth, WHICH IS SYNCHRONOUS WITH THOSE YARNS, AS HAVING A DIFFERENT MAKER AND DIFFERENT POTENCIES AND DIFFERENT SIZE.-(581-583)
COMMENTARY
If the Cloth existing at the same time as the yarns were at the time actually known as something different from the yarns, then, in comparison
