Nyaya (school of philosophy)

Source: WikiPedia: Nyāya

Tarkasaṃgraha (तर्कसंग्रह) is a treatise in Sanskrit giving a foundational exposition of the ancient Indian system of logic and reasoning. The Tarka-Sangraha is authored by Annambhatta and the author himself has given a detailed commentary, called Tarka-Sangraha Dipika, for the text. Annambhatta composed the text as well as the commentary in the second half of 17th century CE. The text of Tarka-sangraha is a small book with about 15 pages only and it was composed to help boys and girls learn easily the basic principles of Nyaya.

Tarkasaṃgraha (तर्कसंग्रह) of Annaṃbhaṭṭa is an excellent introductory treatise on the Nyāya-Vaiśeṣika system of Indian Philosophy Yudhisthira Gopa says that the Tarkasaṃgraha is primarily the door of the twin-darśana, Nyāya and Vaiśeṣika system. The language of Tarkasaṃgraha is very easy, so anybody can understand it easily. In the preface of Tarkasaṃgraha edited by Swami Virupakshananda it has rightly been said, “While the Tarkasaṃgraha is meant primarily to unlock the doors of the twin-darśana of Nyāya-Vaiśeṣika, it is also the master key that has been used by the Acharyas of the other darśanas—the Saṃkhya and Yoga, Mīmāṃsā and Vedānta””

Annaṃbhaṭṭa starts his Tarkasaṃgraha with a prayer to Śivā and saluting his guru. The work contains detail discussion about seven categories and their numerous divisions.

These categories are:

substance (dravya),
quality (guṇa),
action (karma),
generality (sāmānya),
particularity (viśeṣa),
inherence (samavāya),
nonexistence (abhāva).

These seven categories and their different subdivisions are most lucidly illustrated in this work which is accepted from Vaiśeṣika system.

context information
