In Hinduism
Kavyashastra (science of poetry)
: Shodhganga: The Kavyavilasa of Ciranjiva Bhattacarya (kavyashastra)ʰīDZ貹 (प्रतीपोपम�) refers to one of the 93 ṃk (“figures of speech�) mentioned by Cirañjīva Bhaṭṭācārya (fl. 17th century) in his Kāvyavilāsa and is listed as one of the 89 ٳṃk (figure of speech determined by the sense, as opposed to sound).� Traditional Ālaṃkārikas like Bhāmaha, Udbhaṭa, Vāmana, Mammaṭa and Viśvanātha etc. have not admitted پDZ貹. It is Jayadeva who speaks of پDZ貹 in his 䲹Իǰ첹.
Cirañjīva has admitted پDZ貹 in the line of Jayadeva. According to this definition when an ܱ貹Բ becomes upameya it is called پDZ貹. In fact when an object which is usually known as ܱ貹Բ becomes upameya, the figure is پDZ貹.
Example of the īDZ貹-ṃk:�
todāsyasadṛśa� dṛṣṭa� sarasīṣu saroruham |
kiñca tatpuline khelatñᲹ nayanopamā� ||“In the lakes the lotuses are seen like your face and even the ñᲹ bird which is playing in the bank of that lake is compared with your eyes�.
Notes: It is traditional that the lotus is ܱ貹Բ and the face is upameya. But in this particular instance the traditional concept has been left. Here the lotus has been treated as upameya and the face has been described as ܱ貹Բ. The same is the case with lotus and the ñᲹ bird. So it is a good example of پDZ貹.

Kavyashastra (काव्यशास्त्र, 屹ⲹśٰ) refers to the ancient Indian tradition of poetry (kavya). Canonical literature (shastra) of the includes encyclopedic manuals dealing with prosody, rhetoric and various other guidelines serving to teach the poet how to compose literature.
