The seventh book, called Pr eer -hetu-sangraha, compiled by

ninety-nine other works, was compile a y Dignag 
According to I-tsing (Takakusu, p. 182) Dharmakirti made 
(vide K. B. Pathaka’s article on the authorship of Nyayabindu in the 
Journal of the rgd Branch of the Royal Asiatic Society, 1895,

Dignaga also bore the title of Tarkapuagava (a fighting bull) ; while
