c19.s1.5

On this the Ṛjuvimālā remarks—The ‘Conclusion’ stands for the declaration of the Eternality of the Relationship, and the ‘Premiss’ stands for the ‘beginninglessness of the usage.’ The inconsistency between these two has been explained away in the Bhāṣya, where it has been pointed out that words express the meaning of the Sentence only through the comprehension of the meaning of the words themselves. (See Bhāṣya under 1.1.25).
