Who was #JayarāśiBhaṭṭa ?
Jayarāśi's answer would essentially be: no pramāṇa #proof can do this — not just induction, but even perception and testimony are epistemically ungrounded
He attacked vyāpti (the universal #concomitance we discussed) at its root — you can never establish it, period
This makes him far more radical than even #Hume
The interesting tension

@theguardian_world_news Anus Taylor is one of the laziest politicians in all the land. Four years as energy minister and he never managed to have a policy. Went in to an election and never thought having a policy might be a useful strategy. Lazy, entitled, arrogant; used government as a cash cow for his family businesses.
