MOKSHA MARG PRAKASHAK
imaginary desctiption of Tattavas is done for establishing one's superority.
The Buddhists are offour kinds:-1. Vaibhashika, 2. Sautrantika, 3. Yogachara and 4. Maadhyamika.
The Vaibhashikas believe the substance with knowledge, the Suutrantikas believe in the existence of those things only which are directly visible, nothing beyond that. The Yogacharas believe in following a particular conduct and the Maadhyamikas believe in knowledge independent of any substance. Thus, these four groups have developed different types of imaginations about Tattvas; but on analysing their concepts are found to be baseless. In this way, the Bauddha religion has been discussed.
The Charvaka Philosophy Now the differentia of Charvaka philosophy is described:- The Charvaka negates the existence of all these things - omniscient, religion, irreligion, liberation, the fruit of virtue and vice, birth after death and states that whatever is perceptible or can be seen and sensed by material senses that is the only world.
Here we ask him, 'Is omniscient not there in this present time and region or is he not present at all times and anywhere in the world? We too believe that omniscient is not found in the present time and region but who did know this without omniscient that omniscient is not present anywhere and at any time? One who knows about all regions and all times is omniscient and if he does not know then how does he negate it?
Further, religion-irreligion are well-known in the world. If these were merely fancied then how would those have been very wellknown to all persons? Moreover, religion-irreligion form of conduct is clearly seen, owing to which the Jivas feel happiness and sorrow even in the present time, why not to believe these? And the existence of Moksha (liberation) is also well-known by inference. The anger, etc. blemishes (impure dispositions) are found less in someone and are more in some others. This proves that there should be someone who should not have these blemishes at all. Similarly manifestation of knowledge, etc. appears to be less in someone and more in some
