A fallacious reason (hetvābhāsa) and fallacious illumination should not be hetuvidyā." Answer: "Because mentioning the true encompasses the fallacious; or because it has already subsumed them; or because it illuminates them collaterally, not as primary illumination." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.16](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1840.1.16) - [Next: 1.18](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1840.1.18) - [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.1.17) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1840.1.17](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1840.1.17) · Pramāṇa
