In Hinduism

Natyashastra (theatrics and dramaturgy)

: Shodhganga: Mankhaka a sanskrit literary genius (natya)

վ屹 (विभावन�, “peculiar causation�) refers to a type of Alaṃkra (figure of speech).—When an effect is said to arise without a cause, it is վ屹, which is two-fold according as the reason is mentioned or not. The twofold divisions of վ屹 are—Uktanimitta and Anuktanimitta. It may be mentioned here that as an effect is bound by the rule of presence and absence with a cause, it is impossible that an effect can come into existence, without its cause. But if, under some striking mode of speech, it is stated that the effect does come into existence in the absence of its well-known cause, there is վ屹. The effect in such a cause is due to some other cause, which is not well-known i.e. aprasiddha.

Kavyashastra (science of poetry)

: Shodhganga: The Kavyavilasa of Ciranjiva Bhattacarya (kavyashastra)

վ屹 (विभावन�) refers to one of the 93 ṃk (“figures of speech�) mentioned by Cirañjīva Bhaṭṭcrya (fl. 17th century) in his Kvyavilsa and is listed as one of the 89 ٳṃk (figure of speech determined by the sense, as opposed to sound).—The poets are free to compose and not bounded by the law of causation (as followed by the Naiyyikas and other philosophers). Ālaṃkrikas have admitted this freedom of poets and they have postulated two figures of speech viz. śṣoپ and 屹Բ accordingly. վ屹 has been admitted by Bhmaha (II/77), Daṇḍin (II/199), Udbhaṭa (II/19), Vmana (IV/3/13) Mammaṭa (X/162), Ruyyaka (A.S. P. 124), Viśvantha (X/87), Jaganntha (P. 578) and Jayadeva (V/77).

Cirañjīva defines —�屹 vin’pi sytkraṇa� kryajanma cet�.—“When the effect is produced without the presence of the cause, then the figure of speech happens�. This definition occurs verbatim in the 䲹Իǰ첹 of Jayadeva. (V/77) According to the law of causation an effect is always produced from a cause, without any cause there can not be any effect. Even in the absence of a cause when an effect is found to happen, it is the figure .

pracalati sati yasmin kautuken’pi ūmau bhavati surasamjo vykula� sundarībhi� |
daśaśataśatarakṣonyaknmadhīśo bhavati na hi garīyn sa svata� ki� baliyn ||

“When this world is ruled easily by him how the gods become attracted to beautiful women; whether the chief of the leaders of one lakh demons is not honorable and powerful by nature�.

Notes: Here without the cause that is the attempt for going to heaven, the effect that is overwhelming reaction of the gods is found to be described. So it is an example of .
