Passage 5

In English

Amongst the speeches one recognises two different types of speech. One kind of speech is associated with the Sanskrit language. The other kind of speech is linked up with the ordinary normal colloquial language. We will take a small example to illustrate this difference. There are the two words “Go” and “,” but when we use them colloquially we use the words “Cow” and “Horse.” When we examine if there is any difference between the meanings that are conveyed, we come to the conclusion that although the words may be somewhat different, the meaning is exactly the same. In this context, we can consider another example. There is another word which means dust. This is an ordinary colloquial type of word. There is another word called which is the pot and which is the name for a special form made out of mud. These words and , which respectively stand for the pot and the mud which make up the pot, arise out of speech. If this mud which constitutes the basis is not existent, the itself would not exist; and we cannot get this special form of mud.
