201 31. Not, on account of the absence of organs... 202 32. Brahman is not the cause; on account of the world having the nature of what depends on a motive 203 33. But it is mere sport, as in ordinary life 204 34. Not inequality and cruelty... 205 35. If it be said 'not so, on account of non-distinction of deeds'... 206 36. And because all the attributes are proved to be present in Brahman 207 Second Pâda: 1. Not that which is inferred, on account of the impossibility of construction, and on account of activity 208 2. If it be said--like milk or water; there also intelligence guides 209 3. And because from the independence of the Pradhâna there would follow the non-existence of what is different from creation 210 4. Nor like grass and so on; because milk does not exist elsewhere 211 5. And if you say--as the man and the stone; thus also 212 6. And on account of the impossibility of the relation of principal and subordinate matter 213 7. And if another inference be made the result remains unchanged... 214 8. And even if it be admitted; on account of the absence of a purpose 215 9. And it is objectionable on account of the contradictions 216 10. Or in the same way as the big and long from the short and the atomic 217 11. On both assumptions also there is no motion, and thence non-being of the origination of the world 218 12. And because owing to the acknowledgment of samavâya, there results a regressus in infinitum from equality 219 13. And because the world also would thus be eternal 220 14. And on account of the atoms having colour 221 15. And as there are objections in both cases 222 16. And as it is not accepted, it is altogether disregarded 223 17. Even on the aggregate with its two causes... 224 18. If it be said that this is to be explained through successive causality... 225 19. And on account of the cessation of the preceding...
