Verse 411

Sanskrit text, Unicode transliteration and English translation by Ganganath Jha:

अस्त्वेवं किन्तु साकल्ये या तस्य प्रकृतिर्मता ।
वैकल्ये सैव चेदिष्टा नित्याः स्युः सहकारिणः ॥ ४११ ॥

astvevaṃ kintu sākalye yā tasya prakṛtirmatā |
vaikalye saiva cediṣṭā nityāḥ syuḥ sahakāriṇaḥ || 411 ||

This may be so; but if the character of the permanent thing in its complete form (along with its auxiliaries) be held to be the same as that of it in its incomplete form (without the auxiliaries), then the auxiliaries also should be permanent (eternal).—(411)

 

Kamalaśīla’s commentary (tattvasaṃgrahapañjikā):

The above theory may be all right; but what has to be examined here is this—The character that belongs to the Permanent Thing in its complete form as fully equipped with its auxiliaries,—is this character the same as that of the sameng in its incomplete form (without the Auxiliaries)? Or is it different from this latter?—If it is the same, then the auxiliaries should be regarded as permanent.—(411)

The following Text shows how that is so—[see verses 412-413 next]
