Abstract
THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK OF CONCEPT OF PRAMANAS AS MEANS OF VALID KNOWLEDGE
Dr. Anuja Annasaheb Herwade*, Dr. Ashwini Gajanan Wahile, Dr. Suryakant Chandrashekhar Jaju
ABSTRACT
In the study of Indian philosophy and epistemology, Pramana refers to a valid means of knowledge. Pramanas are viewed as tools for attaining reliable and accurate cognition in both Hindu philosophy and the philosophy of Buddhism. The investigation into the means of knowledge arose out of a basic concern that human beings will achieve their goals in life only when they have a correct understanding of reality. Therefore, the systematic investigation of knowledge, its sources, how valid it is, and the scope of its validity, was regarded as necessity by ancient Indian thinkers. There are many philosophical traditions in ancient India that theorize about Pramana differently, with each attempting to justify their ethical and religious views. The various classical forms of Pramanas are Pratyaksha, Anumana, Upamana and Shabda, etc. These Pramanas can be used together to create a complete and thorough methodology for evaluating truth, and establishing reliable cognition, applying to understanding the nature of knowledge, regardless of philosophical perspective.
