Verse 3521

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

ज्ञापनीयमवेदत्वं यद्वा युक्त्या ध्रुवं त्वया ।
अन्यथाश्रुत्यनुक्तत्वं संदिग्धं तस्य ते भवेत् ॥ ३५२१ ॥

jñāpanīyamavedatvaṃ yadvā yuktyā dhruvaṃ tvayā |
anyathāśrutyanuktatvaṃ saṃdigdhaṃ tasya te bhavet || 3521 ||

It behoves you to prove beyond doubt that the text in question is not ‘Veda’; as otherwise, the reason that you have put forward (against the omniscient person) that he is not mentioned in the ‘Veda’ becomes doubtful.—(3521)

Kamalaśīla’s commentary (tattvasaṃgrahapañjikā):

‘Otherwise’—i.e. if you do not establish the fact that it is not Veda; in that case, what you have asserted regarding the Omniscient Person being not mentioned in the ‘Veda’, becomes open to doubt and hence ‘Inadmissible’ (as Reason).—(3521)
