141.2
na lakṣaṇāvasthitāpekṣasiddheḥ ||
No, because it is established through looking to the presence of marks.
141.3
na brūmo yāni lakṣaṇāni bhavanti teṣām abhāva iti, kin tu keṣucil lakṣaṇāny avasthitāni anavasthitāni keṣucit, apekṣamāṇo yeṣu lakṣaṇānāṃ bhāvaṃ na paśyati tāni lakṣaṇābhāvena pratipadyata iti//11//
We do not say that there is non-existence of the marks that exist; rather, marks reside in some and do not reside in others; looking [to them], one who does not see the presence of marks on certain [garments] cognizes them by the non-existence of marks. (11)
