c11.s3.35

Of the terms of Yoga philosophy Pāṇini mentions *yama*, *niyama*, *saṁyama* (III.3.63), *yogī* (III.2.142); of Nyāya, *nigṛihyānuyoga* (VIII.2.94) which were the same as *nigraha* (*Nyāya*, I.2.19; V.2.¹) and *anuyoga* (ibid V.2.23) meaning defeat and censuring of an opponent. *Parimaṇḍala* in *sūtra* VI.2.182 seems to be the same technical term as *Vaiśeshika* VII.1.20, signifying an atom.
