parīkṣitānīndriyāṇy arthāś ca, buddher idānīṃ parīkṣākramaḥ, sā kim anityā nityā veti/ kutaḥ saṃśayaḥ?
The sense organs and the objects have been examined; now comes the turn to examine cognition: is it non-eternal or eternal? From what [arises] the doubt?
271.3
karmākāśasādharmyāt saṃśayaḥ ||
Nyāyasūtra 3.2.1: The doubt arises from commonality with action and space.
271.4
asparśavattvaṃ tābhyāṃ samāno dharma upalabhyate buddhau, viśeṣaś copajanāpāyadharmavattvam, viparyayaś ca yathāsvam anityanityayos tasyāṃ buddau nopalabhyate, tena saṃśaya iti//1//
The property of being devoid of touch, which is common to both of them, is apprehended in cognition; and the specific property consisting in possessing origination and destruction, and its opposite respectively in the non-eternal and the eternal, are not apprehended in that cognition; hence the doubt.
