(-yaḥ) 1) (In the Nyāya philosophy.) Founded on the mutual relation (between two objects), one of the five modes of a tarka (q. v.), viz. an argumentatio ad absurdum, which consists in founding a premise on the imaginary relation between two objects and in drawing a conclusion from it which is inadmissible. This kind of argumentation may again ‘be threefold according to whether the argument of the premise is taken from the notion of origin or from that of actuality or from that of comprehension’ (‘sa cotpattisthitijñaptidvārā tredhā …. tadapekṣāpekṣitvanibandhanoniṣṭaprasaṅgaḥ ..’). For the other four modes of a tarka see: ātmāśraya, cakraka, anavasthā and tadanyabādhitārthaprasaṅga. [A commentator of the Sāṅkhya-Pravachana applies three of these terms to the explanation of the Sūtra: ‘tadyoge tatsiddhāvanyonyāśrayatvam’ in this manner: ‘avidyāyogādavidyāsiddhau cānyonyāśrayatvamātmāśrayatvamanavasthā veti śeṣaḥ ..’.]
2) (In the Sāṅkhya philos.) Resting on one another, supporting one another; a property of the three guṇa or qualities sattva, rajas and tamas, ‘these qualities resting on each other like binary atoms’; see anyonyajanana and anyonyāśrayavṛtti. E. anyonya and āśraya.
