SUTRA 13. मतिस्मृतिःसंज्ञाचिन्ताऽभिनिबोधइत्यनर्थान्तरम् ॥१३॥ Matih Smriti Sanjna Chinta Bhinibodha Ityanarthantaram. Afa Mati, sensitive knowledge, (connotes) the same things as:
a Smriti, (rememberance of a thing known before, but out of sight now);
en Sanjna, also called sidfan na Pratibhijnana, recognition (rememberance of a thing known before when the thing itself or something similar or markedly dissimilar to it, is present to the senses now), fat, Chinta or Tarka, Induction (reasoning or argument based upon observation If a thing is put in fire, its temperature would rise),
afafa279, Sabhınıbodh, or Anumana (Deduction. Reasoning by interence, e. g, any thing put in fire becomes heated, this thing is in fire; therefore it must be heated).
Each of the last four is based upon the one preceding it, e.g. rememberance is based on sensitive knowledge. We remember John; because we have seen him before We recognise his picture because we remember him and his picture is before us. This API, Sanjna, or recognition is based upon our rememberance, a Smriti of John which is itself based upon our #fa, Mati, sense knowledge of John when we saw him, as also upon our sense-knowleege of the picture before us.
Induction (Chinta) is based upon recognition, We see the sunrise in the same way every day We see men dying. The same or similar phenomena take place we remember and recognise these phenomons. By induction we say the sun rises always, and all men die Having stered up our observations in the above induction we can make use of them in deduction or Anumana and argue :
The sun rises every day, therefore it will rise to-morrow. All men die, therefore John will die,
These five are called afa Mati, and they arise on the Ksha yopashama, destruction-subsidence or the subsidence, destruction and operation of the Sensitive-knowledge obscuring karmas.
