Book Description Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 1st Edition. Jayarashi Bhatta's Tattvopaplavasimha is a rare piece of work on Indian Skepticism. Its author has boldly criticized the means of valid knowledge affirmed by the various systems of Indian thought, namely Carvaka, Nyaya, Samkhya, Mimamsa, Vedanta, Buddhist and Jain respectively by declaring the annihilation of all the principles. Although the tradition links it with the Carvaka system of thought, its study leads a reader toward a skeptical critique of all the major systems of Indian Philosophy. It is indeed an unique work depicting Jayarashi Bhatta as a great dialectician. The First Sanskrit Edition of this book was prepared by late Pt. Sukhlalji and Sri Rasikalal Parikh, which were published by G.O.S. in 1940. Translation of this book in to English was the project undertaken by Prof. Esther Solomon, which is being introduced as her last monuments. Seller Inventory # 98375a
