4.43

On the Śāstra's statement, "Here, sensation means... because of their distinction": this is interpreted in accordance with the aggregate of sensation. Speaking of experiencing subsequent to contact, and because the Nyāyānusāra does not refute this here, we know that this statement refers to experiencing contact that conforms to pain, pleasure, and so forth, not to experiencing sensory objects that conform to pain, pleasure, and so forth. Some insist that it is experiencing the preceding object, which is not definitive. Thus the Nyāyānusāra says: "That which benefits, harms, or is contrary to both with respect to the body of support, experiencing pleasant, unpleasant, and neutral contact, is called sensation." In accordance with this text, it experiences simultaneous contact.
