Description:
Prakaranapancika of Salikanatha is a significant text in Prabhakara Mimamsa philosophy. Salikanatha, a direct disciple of Prabhakara, made notable contributions to Indian epistemology and linguistics. His theories include:
- Epistemology: The concept of Svaprkashatva (self-luminosity of cognition), the Triputikarana formula, and the Akhyati theory of perceptual error.
- Linguistics: The Anvitabhidhanavada theory of sentence meaning, the idea of Karya (Niyoga) as the essence of injunctions, and the classification of Pauruseya (human-composed) statements under inference.
While these ideas faced strong criticism from Nyaya and Bhatta Mimamsa schools, they found partial acceptance in Vishistadvaita and Dvaita traditions. This study of Prabhakara thought, when examined through the lens of modern epistemology and linguistics, offers valuable insights.
