Anumana is a tool of obtaining knowledge preceded by [[pratyaksha pramana]]. It provides knowledge of the past, present, and future. For example, the presence of fire can be inferred on appearance of smoke; the copulation in past is inferred by witnessing pregnancy, and predicting the future tree after examining the seed.  [Cha.Sa.[[Sutra Sthana]] 11/21-22)]
