Where it sits

The definitions begin at 19 and, after the long discussion of cognition, resume at 66. Guṇa (गुण) here is Vaiśeṣika (वैशेषिक)'s quality. It is a different word from Sāṅkhya (साङ्ख्य)'s three strands, which that book also calls guṇa (गुण).

Split: rūpa (रूप) + rasa (रस) + gandha (गन्ध) + sparśa (स्पर्श) + saṃkhyā (संख्या) + parimāṇa (परिमाण) + pṛthaktva (पृथक्त्व) + saṃyoga (संयोग) + vibhāga (विभाग) + paratva (परत्व) + aparatva (अपरत्व) + gurutva (गुरुत्व) + dravatva (द्रवत्व) + sneha (स्नेह) + śabda (शब्द) + buddhi (बुद्धि) + sukha (सुख) + duḥkha (दुःख) + icchā (इच्छा) + dveṣa (द्वेष) + prayatna (प्रयत्न) + dharma (धर्म) + adharma (अधर्म) + saṃskārāḥ (संस्काराः) + caturviṃśati (चतुर्विंशति) + guṇāḥ (गुणाः)
