[^128]. MSS. read : kani here. This should be due to mistake of some

scribe or other. Later the word kani in this context occurs in the text. But
in vaivä
in vaivāhika the suffix should be tṭhañ. So I surmised tṭhañi. Mallinātha in

his commentary on the Kumāra-VII.2, explaining vaivāhika says: vivāhah
ḥ
prayojanam eşṣām iti vaivāhikāni. Prayojanam ( 5.1.109) iti tṭhañ. On prayojana of

the rule 5.1.109, Bhattṭṭoji says : prayojanam = phalam, kāraņam ca.
 
ṇam ca.
 
[^129]. See also Naişṣadha III.113 (bhavadviyoga), IV.121 (bhavadvidhā) VIII.73

(bhavadakşṣivāsī). See also the Kādambariī :
 

atimahat khalu bhavaddarśanaāt prabhṛti me kut ühalam asmin
ūhalam asmin
(p. 291 ; N.S.P. 1948).

[^130]. There seems to have been some difficulty in having a correct interpret-

ation of the rule regarding the pumṃvadbhāva (i.e. retaining the masculine stem,

though the person referred to may be a female in a given context, as is clear

from the vigrahaväākya). Some earlier writers quoted the following rule:
sarvanä
sarvanāmnaḥ samāse purvamūrvaṃ pumṃvat,
 
and noted it to be a vä
and noted it to be a vārttika. But there is no vārttika like this traceable. It was

to the credit of Bhattṭṭoji, it seems, who pointed out the inexistence of such a
vä
vārttika, and made clear that it was an Işțṣṭi of Patañjali in the form of sarvanamno
vrttimäāmno
vṛttimātre pumvadbhaṃvadbhāvaḥ.
 

 
See his S.K. under TṬhakchasoś ca (on 6.3.35, – Tasilādişṣu etc.) and the

P.M. in this context. The Iştiṣṭi : sarvanāmno vṛttimäātre pumvadbhaṃvadbhāvaḥ is found

in the Mahābhāsṣya under 2.2.26, and under 5.3.28. See also Note 132.

[^131]. The pūrvapakşṣa raised here is owing to the ignorance of the Istṣṭi, and

consequently is based on the view that pumṃvadbhāva is not possible in all the

cases, but possible only in bhaāvatka and bhavadiīya (the cases of tṭhak and chas

suffixes). See the Venṇīsamṃhāra V.9 (bhavatiīsutakşṣayakarahḥ), and the Sākuntala :

after V.24 (atrabhavatiīpratyayāt). See also Jagaddhara on Venisamṇīsaṃhāra V.9.
