Prameya (प्रमेय) refers to the “appraisable objects” (i.e., ‘objects which is to be understood through valid cognition’).— Cf. “objects” (viṣaya) (i.e., ‘that which is to be comprehended or known’).—Accordingly, “That which is to be understood through valid cognition is ‘the knowable’. The terms ‘object’ (viṣaya; yul), ‘knowable’ (jñeya; shes bya), and ‘appraisable’ (prameya; gzhal bya) are all essentially equivalent, but it is the defining characteristic of the ‘object’ that it is to be comprehended or known, it is the defining characteristic of the ‘knowable’ that it can be objectified by the intellect, and it is the defining characteristic of the ‘appraisable’ that it is to be understood through valid cognition”.

When objects to be appraised (prameya; gzhal bya) are analyzed in terms of the processes of understanding, they are said to include both specifically characterized phenomena (svalakṣaṇa; rang mtshan) and generally characterized phenomena (sāmānyalakṣaṇa; spyi mtshan).

Alternatively, they fall into three [categories]—

appraisable objects that are directly evident (abhimukhī; mngon gyur),
those that are indirectly evident (parokṣa; lkog gyur), and
those that are indirectly evident to an extreme degree (atyantaparokṣa; shin tu lkog gyur).
