TATTVASANGRAHA: CHAPTER XVI.
unlike things, become diversified; it is not the things that are diversified. For instance, the Dhava and other trees do not become unified in the form of the Universal Tree'; nor do they become diversified, in parts, in the form of the momentary individual trees; all that varies is the conceptual content. This has been thus declared Things by themselves do not become either aggregated or diversified, in reality ; that their form is one or many is due to the fluctuations of the Cognition :-1048-1049)
It has been argued above (under Text 932) that-"No one can be able to conceive, in regard to the Cow, the unknown similarity in the object of A poha, etc. etc."
The answer to this is as follows:
TEXT (1050). EVEN THOUGA THERE IS NO COMMON PROPERTY, YET what are excluded AND WHAT ARE CONTAINED IN THE Exclusion ARE APPREHENDED AS DIFFERENT, BY REASON OF THEIR APPEARING AS DIVERSE IN THE SUBSEQUENT DETERMINATE

(1050)
The following might be urged-" In the absence of some one Commonally, how can the things that bring about a single determinate judgment become diverse ?"
The answer to this is as follows:
TEXT (1051). IT WOULD BE ONLY A FEW THINGS WHICH, WHILE BEING DIVERSE BY THEMSELVES, WOULD BRING ABOUT A SINGLE DETERMINATE JUDGMENT; AS ALREADY EXPLAINED
BY US.-(1051)
COMMENTARY It has been explained in course of our examination of the Universal that the Dhätri (Amalaki and other fruits), without commonalty, come to
