Jan 14, 2017 at 16:29 | comment | added | Keshav Srinivasan♦ | @Surya By the way, Madhvacharya also believed that there were some Jivas who were designed to never attain Moksha. He thought that if a Jiva commited enough sins, the weight of those sins would drag them down to Andha-Tamas, a place of eternal punishment, similar to Chrstianity. | |
Jan 14, 2017 at 16:26 | comment | added | Keshav Srinivasan♦ | @Surya Haha, good Nammalwar reference. In any case, Kumarila Bhatta may not have viewed that as much of a problem. As a Mimamsaka he saw the law of Karma as just a mindless force that happens to exist in the Universe, not something designed to help Jivas advance spiritually or anything like that. (He did believe in Ishwara or a supreme being, but he didn't think Ishwara played much of a role.) | |
Jan 14, 2017 at 16:22 | comment | added | Surya | Exactly so one class of Jivas never attains Moksha which means for all those jivas, forever, Atthai Thinru Ange Kidakkum. | |

Jan 14, 2017 at 15:59 | comment | added | Keshav Srinivasan♦ | What do you mean "how will the world move forth"? Do you mean how will Jivas spiritually advance? I should mention that Kumarila Bhatta did believe in the concept of Moksha, and he thought it could be achieved through Nishkama Karma as I discuss here: hinduism.stackexchange.com/a/16045/36 But obviously animals wouldn't be able to do that, so perhaps he believed that animals would never be able to attain Moksha. | |
Jan 14, 2017 at 12:09 | comment | added | Surya | If it is his view then it's astounding that Kumarila Bhatta would propose such a purposeless worldview. Like how will the world move forth if you are reborn as the same species forever? | |
