Tulyayogitā (तुल्ययोगिता) refers to one of the 93 alaṃkāras (“figures of speech”) mentioned by Cirañjīva Bhaṭṭācārya (fl. 17th century) in his Kāvyavilāsa and is listed as one of the 89 arthālaṃkāras (figure of speech determined by the sense, as opposed to sound).—The figure of speech tulyayogitā has been admitted by Ālaṃkārikas like Ruyyaka (A.S. P. 70), Mammaṭa (K.P. X/104), Viśvanatha (S.D. X/66) and Jayadeva (C.L. V/51).

Cirañjīva has discussed about tulyayogitā alaṃkāra. He has defined it as follows—“varṇyānāṃ tulyadharmatve kathitā tulyayogitā”.—“When the things to be described or the contextual and non-contextual things are connected by a single attribute it is the figure tulyayogitā”.

Example of the tulyayogitā-alaṃkāra:—

astaṃ yāte divānāthe niśānāthe mahodayam |
unmīlanti kumudvanti cakorīnayanāni ca ||

“After the setting of the lord of the day (i.e. sun) and the rise of the lord of night (i.e. moon) the lilies and the eyes of the female cakara bird become opened”.

Notes: Here the lilies and the eyes of the female cakara bird which are to be described or contextual are connected with the same attribute that is opening. so this is an example of tulyayogitālaṃkāra.
