CHAPTER II 29 तदेषा कथिता त्रिधा ॥ १३ ॥ अव्यङ्ग्या गूढव्यङ्ग्या अगूढव्यङ्ग्या च ॥ १३ ॥ तद्भूलाक्षणिकः शब्द इति संबध्यते । तद्भूस्तदाश्रयः ॥ तत्र व्यापारो व्यञ्जनात्मकः । In this way Indication has been declared to be of three kinds.—(13). That is, (1) that in which there is no suggested meaning, (2) that in which the suggested meaning is abstruse, and (3) that in which the suggested meaning is explicit. That which contains the said (indication) is the 'Indicative'— 'Word', 'śabdah', has to be construed here (from Text 6). 'Tadbhūh'—That which contains, is the substratum of, the Indication. [Having described the 'expressive word' (in the Text 7) and the 'indicative word' (in the foregoing Text), the author now turns to the description of the 'suggestive word' As in the other two cases, however, so here also, before describing the 'suggestive word,' it is necessary to explain the process of 'suggestion.' This suggestion is of two kinds—'Verbal', based upon the word, and 'Ideal', based upon the meaning, as the present context is dealing with words, the author takes up Verbal suggestion here, the other kind being dealt with in Chapter III. The Verbal suggestion also is of two kinds, that based upon the directly expressed meaning of the word, 'denotative', and that based upon the indicated meaning of the word, 'indicative'. And as he has been just dealing with Indication, he takes up the 'Indicative' suggestion first ]—13 Of the Indicative Word, that function (which brings about the cognition of the 'purpose' of the indication) is of the nature of 'Suggestion'.
