  • • to Familiarize the Students with the Sources of Knowledge ( Pramanas) from Eastern and Western Perspectives. • to Encourag
    1 UNIT 1 PRAMANAS – I 1.0 OBJECTIVES • To familiarize the students with the sources of knowledge (Pramanas) from Eastern and Western perspectives. • To encourage them to explore the various issues connected to perception. 1.1 INTRODUCTION After asking , “Can I know?” the next question is obviously “How do I know?” or the sources of knowledge. Obviously the external world is the primary source of our knowledge, which does not rule out the role of the knower. This complex issue of how we come to know has been treated insightfully and comprehensively in Western Philosophy. Indian Philosophy speaks of the sources of knowledge (or Pramanas), which are meant by which we can come to know and to know what. We shall, however, overlook the controversy in Indian philosophy regarding their number, whether one could them as one (as in Carvakas), two (as in Buddhism and Vaisesika), three (as in Samkhya), four (as in Nyaya), five (as in Mimamsa), six (as in Vedanta and Kumarila’s Mimamsa, etc., upto no less than ten. Whether a way of arriving at knowledge is to be considered genuine or not is certainly not an idle question, but whether such a way is implied in another way is, according to us, not so important. Many schools differ from others regarding the number of such ways sometimes because they do not consider certain ways to be genuine, but, often times, because they consider certain ways to be implied in others and therefore not independent sources of knowledge. We shall consider only those ways which both in the West and in the East are consider to be really important.

  • Hetuvidya, Pramana-Vidya, Dinnaga and Dharmakirti. Buddhist
    ИСТОРИЯ ЛОГИКИ Hetuvidya Studies in India: A Historical Survey Pramod Kumar, College of Commerce, Arts and Science, Patna HETUVIDYAKeywords: STUDIES IN INDIA: A HISTORICAL SURVEY Hetuvidya, Pramana-vidya, Dinnaga and Dharmakirti. Buddhist hetuvidya was expounded in India by the two outstanding Buddhist Logicians viz. Dinnaga and Dharmakirti in 6th and 7th century A. D. As pointed by Th. Stcherbatsky, the Buddhist themselves call their science a doctrine of “logical reasons” or a doctrine of “the source of right knowledge” (pramana-vidya). According to Stcherbatsky, there were three schools of interpretation of the work of Dinnaga and his most prominent interpreter was Dharmakirti. One of the schools, says Stcherbatsky, contented itself with merely explicating the texts without exploring the religious or philosophical implications, whereas the two other schools placed a great deal of emphasis on the religious value of studying epistemology. Ernst Steinkellner argues that logic has a place within Buddhism as a sort of “hand-maiden of theology”. For him logic in Buddhism, a means that is independent of blind faith but that nevertheless serves to confirm dogmas of Buddhism that come to be known to human beings through process that is virtually indistinguishable from revelation. On the other hand, Richard Hayes, a contemporary Buddhist interpreter, has argued that this portrayal of the place of logic within Buddhism is quite accurate for Dharmakirti and later Buddhists such as Santaraksita and Kamalasila, but it is not necessarily accurate for Dinnaga. My study regarding hetuvidya will begin with the survey of the history of academic studies of Buddhist Logic done by modern Indian scholars in the last hundred years.

Water is physiological basis of hydration & forms approximately 45-75% of total body weight (50-55% in female while 60- 65% in male) as total body water (TBW). Normal volume of water in body is highly essential to carry out all biological processes properly so is highly indispensable for life. In Ayurveda Udaka term is used to represent body water. Its normal quantity mentioned is ten Anjali measured by one's own. It does not simply represent water in the body which we intake but signifies various form of body flu- ids like water fraction of Dhatus (Rasa, Rakta, Mamsa, Meda, Majja, Shukra), Upadhatus (Stanya and Vasa) and Malas (Mutra, Sweda and Dravyansh of Purish). It can be correlated with the concept of total body water in mod- ern physiology.

  • Exploring the Science of Marma - an Ancient Healing Technique - Part 2: Definition and Properties of Marma
    Exploring the Science of Marma - An Ancient Healing Technique - Part 2: Definition and Properties of Marma Alka Mishra*, Vandana Shrivastava Department of Ayurveda and Holistic Health, Dev Sanskriti Vishwavidyalaya, Gayatrikunj-Shantikunj, Haridwar, Uttarakhand, India *Corresponding Author: Alka Mishra - Email: [email protected] License information for readers: This paper is published online under the Creative Commons Attribution (CC BY 4.0) License, whose full terms may be seen at https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Uploaded online: 27 June 2020 Abstract In the vast sea of the knowledge of Ayurveda, Marma is one of the extremely important topics. Marma points have been unanimously accepted as the ‘seats of life’ (Prana - the vital life force). If these locations are injured, then it may lead to severe pain, disability, loss of function, loss of sensation, or death. Therefore, the ancient scriptures have strictly directed that these vital locations should not be injured, and due care should be taken in this regard even while doing surgeries. However, recent researches indicate that if there is inflammation or pain at any Marma point, then stimulating its nearby Marma points can help in alleviating this pain. This Marma Therapy has been used in treating various physical and mental disorders, with encouraging results. In view of the importance of Marma Science mentioned in scriptures and with regards to surgeries, as well as the encouraging outcomes of Marma Therapy in recent times, the present study was undertaken for an in-depth study of the Science of Marma. Part-1 of this study gave an account of various ancient / classical Indian scriptures that mention different aspects of the Science of Marma.

  • Recollection As Pramdna
    Journal of Indian and Buddhist Studies Vol. 36, No. 1, December 1987 Recollection as pramdna Shin Fujinaga The aim of this paper is to show the unique position and value of smrti (recol- lection) in the Jaina theory of pramana. This is done through analyzing the some arguments between Jainism and other shools of Indian philosophy. Jaina logi- cians admit two types of pramanas, viz. pratyaksa and paroksa. The latter can be devided into smrti,, pratyabhijnana, tarka and anumana. Among these four the last is regarded as pramana even by other schools while the remaining three are denied by them.1) Many Jaina philosophers like Prabhacandra define smrti as knowledge which arises through a particular mental impression and whose object has been grasped once and which is in a form of "that one".2) In this definition a mental impres- sion means dharana (retension) which is the last pratyaksa in the Jaina episte- mology. Thus it can be said that smrti is a result of dharana. And as its object has been grasped once smrti is distinguished from pratyaksa whose object has never been grasped before. Moreover it must be noticed that smrti has a form of "that one" because this character distinguishes it from other kno wledge such as pratyabhijnana which has a form of "This is that one." As mentioned above, other schools do not admit smrti as pramana. There are many different reasons for their denial. Buddhist philosophers and Mimamsakas, to whom pramana must have object which has never been grasped, refute smrti as pramana because it is knowledge of an object once known.
