Answer: "Because the reason (hetu) has three marks (trairūpya), and its name and meaning are broad. Furthermore, all proof-components (sādhana) are called reasons (hetu), not merely a single mark; since the thesis is established through this, it is collectively named hetuvidyā." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.15](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1840.1.15) - [Next: 1.17](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1840.1.17) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1840.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1840~en-mt.1.16) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1840.1.16](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1840.1.16) · Pramāṇa
