In the Mima?sa tradition, man-made statements, in contrast to perception or Vedic injunctions, are not ultimately counted as primary sources of information. Kumarila inherits Sabara’s idea that man-made speech can convey only a speaker’s cognition (vakt?jñana) and not the actual object in question. Thus the essential part of Dharmakirti’s view on speech as being vaktrabhiprayasucaka is already found in the Sabarabha?ya. It is more appropriate to say that Dharmakirti’s idea of vaktrabhiprayasucaka was prefigured by Kumarila or some other Mima?sakas than to say that Dharmakirti invented it building on Dignaga’s apoha theory.
