yā samānaṃ buddhiṃ prasūte bhinneṣv adhikaraṇeṣu, yayā bahūnīteretarato na vyāvartante yo 'rtho 'nekatra pratyayānuvṛttinimittaṃ tat sāmānyam/ yac ca keṣāñcid abhedaṃ kutaścid bhedaṃ karoti tat sāmānyaviśeṣo jātir iti//69//
That which produces a uniform cognition across distinct substrates, by which many are not distinguished from one another, that entity which is the cause of recurrent cognition across multiple instances, is the common property. And that which produces non-difference among some and difference from others is a generic-difference, [which is] the universal.
