The Calcutta Review December 1952

1952

Now the Buddhists may contend that the attainment of the series of the real object is as good as the attainment of a real object. [...] Therefore the definition of a means of proof that what is conducive to the attainment of an object is a means of proof is not a sound one since the perception of a negligible object is also true though it is not conducive to its attainment. [...] The Buddhists may urge that the peception of a negligible object is a means.of proof though it is not conducive to the attainment of the object like other means of proof since it produces the same process as the other means of proof does when it helps to attain the object. [...] If the definition of true knowledge is only confined within the precincts of its power of revealing its object then it should also cover the illusory experience of water on the locus of the bright rays of the sun i.e. [...] Hence as the perception of an indivdnal ray of the sun is not a means of proof becatie of its production of a judgment referring to a contrary object so the perception of an individual should not be a means of proof because of its production of a judgment pointing to a series which is contrarily opposed to an individual.
