Anekāntavāda : Origin and Development]
[15 Determinism and Free willTwo contradictory facts :(a) One knows by direct incontrovertible experience that it
is one's own self that directs the motion of one's body; and because of this freedom arises moral responsibility
for one's action. (b) The body functions are a pure mechanism according to
the Laws of Nature.
