Rquotes

Lokayatics (Quotes)

On Holy Writs

What pompous talk they revel in, those foolish ones who take their stand.

On argued 'word' of holy writ, professing there is naught save this!

On Asceticism

If a person gets success by abandoning all the activities except maintenance of body as recluses do, all the aquatic animals would have achieved success.


On Philosophical Inference

We accept the inference which is this wordly. We condemn inference

which is used beyond this world only to prove hereafter etc. That inference is merely baseless and utopian by nature.

On Creator

No one sharpens the thorns, no one variegates the animals and birds.

Likewise nobody does make the sugercanes sweet and the tree of Nimba bitter. All this is but natural.

On Vedantist and Buddhists

If you can call respectfully the Vedanta a Scripture that denies the existence of even

this world which is proved by direct perception, then why do you condemn the Buddhists?
