Because it does not produce what is to be established (sādhya), it is not declared to be "productive" (kāraka); because it does not produce what is to be established, it is called "indicative" (jñāpaka), not "productive" (kāraka); while that which produces what is to be established, such as a sprout and so forth, is called "productive" - thus there is no fault [in this distinction].
