In Hinduism
Nyaya (school of philosophy)
: Shodhganga: A study of Ny膩ya-vai艣e峁ka categories顿惫测补峁嘘办补 (啶︵啶掂啶ぃ啷佮) refers to the 鈥渃onjunction of two atoms (辫补谤补尘腻峁嘘)鈥� according to the D墨pik膩 on Tarkasa峁僩raha.鈥擜nna峁僢ha峁弓a states in his D墨pik膩 about creation and dissolution that due to the creative will of the omnipotent God, motion is first produced in the atoms (辫补谤补尘腻峁嘘). Then, from the conjunction of two atoms is dyad (诲惫测补峁嘘办补) is produced. Then, as a consequence of conjunction of three dyads, a triad (迟谤测补峁嘘办补) is formed. Similarly, with four triads, a quadrate (肠补迟耻谤补峁嘘办补) is produced, and so on and on until the great masses of gross earth, water, light and atmosphere are formed.
When the dissolution of the products of substances thus created is desired by the omnipotent God, motion is produced dividing the monads. Owing to this, the contact between two atoms is destroyed whereupon the destruction of the dyad (诲惫测补峁嘘办补) takes place. The dyad being destroyed there follows the disintegration of triads, quadrates and so on until the entire created masses of earth etc. are destroyed. The traditional view is that due to the dissolution of the non-intimate cause between the two atoms, a dyad is destroyed. Then, due to the destruction of the intimate cause, subsequent products like the triads etc. are disintegrated. But the modern Naiy膩yikas hold the view that everywhere the disintegration of the products of substances takes place as a result of the dissolution of the union between two atoms owing to the destruction of the non-intimate cause.
Nyaya (啶ㄠ啶ぞ啶�, nyaya) refers to a school of Hindu philosophy (astika), drawing its subject-matter from the Upanishads. The Nyaya philosophy is known for its theories on logic, methodology and epistemology, however, it is closely related with Vaisheshika in terms of metaphysics.
In Jainism
General definition (in Jainism)
: The University of Sydney: A study of the Twelve Reflections顿惫测补峁嘘办补 (啶︵啶掂啶ぃ啷佮) refers to 鈥�(combination of) two atoms鈥�, according to the 11th century J帽膩n膩r峁嘺va, a treatise on Jain Yoga in roughly 2200 Sanskrit verses composed by 艢ubhacandra.鈥擜ccordingly, 鈥淪entient beings, inflamed by very intense pleasure [and] unsteady from affliction by wrong faith, wander about in a five-fold life that is difficult to be traversed. It has been stated at length that the cycle of rebirth which is full of suffering is five-fold on account of combining substance [com.鈥攕ubstance (诲谤补惫测补峁�) is a combination of two atoms (i.e. the first step in the formation of substances when they become perceptible), etc. (诲惫测补峁嘘办腻诲颈)] , place, right time, life and intention鈥�.
Jainism is an Indian religion of Dharma whose doctrine revolves around harmlessness (ahimsa) towards every living being. The two major branches (Digambara and Svetambara) of Jainism stimulate self-control (or, shramana, 鈥榮elf-reliance鈥�) and spiritual development through a path of peace for the soul to progess to the ultimate goal.
