Vyāptipañcakarahasya

This is a commentary on the Vyāptipañcaka section of the Anumānakhaṇḍa in Raghunātha Śiromaṇi’s Tattvacintāmaṇidīdhiti, which itself is a commentary on the Anumānakhaṇḍa of Gaṅgeśa Upādhyāya’s Tattvacintāmaṇi, a foundational treatise on logic from the Navya-Nyāya school of philosophy. This particular section deals with vyāpti, or pervasion. The present text was composed by Mathurānātha Tarkavāgīśa (c. 1600–1675 CE), a prolific Navya-Nyāya scholar from Navadvīpa (modern-day Nabadwip in West Bengal). This is an incomplete manuscript. This text is similar to Sl. no. 156. This Ms. is written in 8–9 lines per folio. Title and alternate title Vyāptisvarūpaniraṇaya present in begining (f. 1a) Mistakes are covered with yellow or blacked out. Some corrections and additions in the margins.
