This paper consists of a Japanese translation of Bhartṛhari's Vākyapadīya (VP) chapter II (Vākyakāṇḍa) and that of Puṇyarāja's commentary on it called the Ṭīkā, and my own brief notes.

The basic priciple of Bhartṛhari's thought of language is that the sentence (vākya), which is single (eka) and indivisible (akhaṇḍa), is the primary linguistic fact. And its meaning is pratibhā.

His linguistic thought has great influence upon not only vaiyākaraṇa but also many scholars of the other schools in Indian Philosophy.

The following is a synopsis of the portions of the VP translated in this paper.
