Translation/Explanation

Hindi

यह सूत्र कहता है कि हमारे पक्ष में साध्य के समानता (साध्यसमत्व) होने के कारण, हमारा तर्क उचित है। अर्थात्, जब किसी पक्ष में वही गुण या स्थिति पाई जाती है जो सिद्ध्य में है, तो वह पक्ष प्रमाणित होता है।

English

This sūtra states that, because there is similarity to the probandum (sādhyasamatva) on our side, our argument is valid. That is, when the property or condition present in what is to be established is also found on our side, it serves as a legitimate reason in support of our position.
