Please be on the topic. The anumAna presented by BhAshykAra is simple and
clear. न च घटाभावः सन्पटः अभावात्मकः ; किं तर्हि ? भावरूप एव । एवं घटस्य
प्राक्प्रध्वंसात्यन्ताभावानामपि घटादन्यत्वं स्यात् , घटेन
व्यपदिश्यमानत्वात् , घटस्येतरेतराभाववत् ; तथैव भावात्मकताभावानाम.
I will repeat the question:
1. Is pot-abhAva bhAvarUpa?
2. Is pot-abhAva made of three guNAs namely sattva, rajas and tamas?
Just simple, plain, clear questions.
Regards.
Sudhanshu Shekhar.
