Note 368 — SA@NKARA'S INTRODUCTION (continued 4)

Our Vaiseshika-sûtras read 'pratishedhabhâvah;' but as all MSS. of Sa@nkara have 'pratishedhâbhâvah' I have kept the latter reading and translated according to Ânandagiri's explanation: Kâryam anityam iti kârye vireshato nityatvanishedho na syâd yadi kâraneszpy anityatvam atozsnûnâm kâranânâm nityateti sûtrârthah.
