The succeeding one serves as the object of knowledge (prāmāṇya) that is (established) with the three indications.... Thus, the first group of four possesses the means of knowledge, which is devoid of indication. The sequence beginning with the Transmental (i.e. the Transmental, the Equal One, the Pervasive, and Power) is not indicated (by anything) [i.e., anuddiṣṭa] as it is (the group) which perceives (the others). The second, which is the group of five, does have an indication. (This is) the object of the means of knowledge (prāmāṇya) (in relation to the preceding group of four)”.
