156 KĀVYAPRAKĀŚA
तत्र “अत्ता एत्थ” इत्यादौ नियतसंबन्धः “कस्स व ण
होइ रोसो” इत्यादौ, अनियतसंबन्धः ।
“विपरीअरए लच्छी बम्हं दट्ठूण णाहिकमलट्ठं ।
हरिणो दाहिणणअणं रसाउला झत्ति ढक्केइ ॥१३७॥”
इत्यादौ संबद्धसंबन्धः । अत्र हि हरिपदेन दक्षिणनयनस्य
सूर्यात्मकता व्यज्यते। तन्निमीलनेन सूर्यास्तमयः । तेन पद्मस्य
संकोचः । ततो ब्रह्मणः स्थगनम् । तत्र सति गोप्याङ्गस्यादर्शनेन
अनिर्यन्त्रणं निधुवनविलसितमिति ।
From all this it follows that we cannot reject ‘Sugges-
tion’ as a process which functions far beyond the three
processes of ‘Denotation’, ‘Import’ and ‘Indication’.
(a) In the verse referred to above—‘my mother-in-
law lies here &c.’—the ‘suggested’ meaning is one
that bars a definite relationship (to the expressed meaning);
(b) while in the verse ‘who will not get annoyed etc.,
(quoted above) the relationship is extremely vague and
(c) in the following verse—
‘On the occasion of......when Lakṣmī saw Brahmā
seated on the naval-lotus of her husband, she, being too
immersed in her passion, closed the right eye of Viṣṇu
(her husband)’,
—the suggested meaning is related to the expressed
indirectly through something else related to it; e. g. the
term ‘Hari’ (Viṣṇu) suggests the fact of his right eye
being the Sun (the Sun and the Moon being described as
the two eyes of Viṣṇu), hence the closing of that eye
signifies sunset, which signifies the closing of the lotus and
the consequent hiding of Brahmā seated upon it, which,
lastly, suggests the fact that her secret parts being
rendered invisible to anyone, her pleasure would con-
tinue unmolested.
