TEXT 66

'vibhavati' kriyāya vākya--sāṅga, punaḥ viśeṣaṇa
'adbhuta-guṇā'--ei punar-ātta dūṣaṇa


SYNONYMS

vibhavati kriyāya—by the verb vibhavati ("flourishes"); vākya—statement; sāṅga—complete; punaḥ—again; viśeṣaṇa adbhuta-guṇa—the adjective adbhuta-guṇa ("wonderful qualities"); ei—this; punar-ātta—repetition of the same word; dūṣaṇa—fault.


TRANSLATION

"The statement by the word 'vibhavati' ['flourishes'] is complete. Qualifying it with the adjective 'adbhuta-guṇā' ['wonderful qualities'] creates the fault of redundancy.
