Description

In Sanskrit

Pramanavarttika is one of the seven celebrated works of the great Buddhist logician Dharmakirti. It consists of four chapters treating respectively of the validity of knowledge, perception, inference for oneself and inference for others according to the version followed in the present work.
The present volume includes Dharmakirti's basic text together with two commentaries: one, the auto-commentary of the author on the Svarthanumana-pariccheda only which is the first in the traditional order and third in the order followed here, and the other, the Pramanavarttikavrtti by Manorathanandin on all the four chapters.
Dharmakirti defines valid knowledge as the one which is not contradicted by experience and makes successful activity the test of truth
