140.3
tatsiddher alakṣiteṣv ahetuḥ ||
Since these are established, [saying they are] in the unmarked is a pseudo-reason.
140.4
teṣu vāsaḥsu lakṣiteṣu siddhir vidhyamānatā yeṣāṃ bhavati na teṣām abhāvo lakṣaṇānām/ yāni ca lakṣiteṣu vidyante lakṣaṇāni teṣām alakṣiteṣv abhāva ity ahetuḥ/ yāni khalu bhavanti teṣām abhāvo vyāhata iti//10//
The marks whose establishment—that is, presence—occurs on those marked garments do not have non-existence. And [to say that] those marks which exist on the marked garments have non-existence in the unmarked garments is a pseudo-reason. For non-existence of what indeed exists is contradictory. (10)
