2.8
tan nāsti/ yady abhaviṣyad idam iva vyajñāsyata, vijñānābhāvān nāstīti/ tad evaṃ sataḥ prakāśakaṃ pramāṇam asad api prakāśayatīti/
does not exist: 'If it had existed, it would have been known just like this; because of the absence of cognition, it does not exist.' Thus, in this way, the means of valid cognition, revealing the existent, reveals even the non-existent.
