Quartic Tendency

Basic concepts of Krama are also classified in groups of four. The fifth function (Anugraha/叠丑腻蝉补) is included in the fourth viz., 罢颈谤辞诲丑腻苍补 or 础苍腻办丑测补. Ultimate reality here is not 叠丑腻蝉补 but 础苍腻办丑测补. The fifth power, Cit of the Absolute is subsumed under 膧苍补苍诲补. Division of twelve 碍腻濒颈蝉 of Samvit cakra are formed by the four functions in relation to each of the Subject (笔谤补尘腻迟峁�), object (Prameya) and means of knowledge (笔谤补尘腻峁嘺). 痴腻肠 under this does not reckon the 厂奴办峁补 introduced to the popular Four-fold speech[14].
