ADH. 2.]
CORRECT CONCLUSION (continued)
SŪTRA 8
“IF IT BE OBJECTED THAT ON ACCOUNT (OF THE SIMILAR) NAME
(THERE IS SAMENESS OF THE VIDYĀS), (WE REPLY:) THAT HAS
BEEN SAID, ON THE OTHER HAND, (THERE IS) THAT TOO (I E THE
IDENTITY OF NAMES) (EVEN IN THE ABSENCE OF IDENTITY OF THE
OBJECTS NAMED).”
Vedānta-pārijāta-saurabha
“If it be objected that on account of name” the vidyās must be
identical,—(we reply:) Under the aphorism: “Or not, on account of
the difference of subject-matter” (Br. Sū. 3 3.7) it has been shown the
mere identity of names is of no great force “On the other hand,”
names may be identical even when the subject-matters enjoined are
different; just as the name ‘Agni-hotra’ applies to the regular Agni-
hotra, and to the Agni-hotra which is a part of the ceremony called
‘Kuṇḍapāyinām ayanam’.¹
Vedānta-kaustubha
If it be objected that “on account of name”, i.e. on account of
the name ‘udgītha-meditation’, the udgītha-vidyās are identical—
(we reply:) The reply to this has been given under the aphorism:
“Or not, on account of the difference of subject-matter” (Br. Sū
3.3.7). That is, the difference of vidyās being established on the
ground of the difference of introductory parts, mere identity of
names cannot make the vidyās identical. Moreover, even two dif-
ferent subject-matters may have identical names, just as the name
‘Agni-hotra’ applies to the regular Agni-hotra and to the Agni-hotra
which is a part of the ceremony called ‘Kuṇḍa-pāyinām ayanam’,
and just as the First-Day sacrifice is to be observed both in the
Twelve-Days’ sacrifice and in the Gavāmayana sacrifice.
