26). ] 282 systems that we have can we trace any upholding of this ancientview [Footnote ref 1]. These considerations as well as the general style ofthe work and the methods of discussion lead me to think that thesesûtras are probably the oldest that we have and in all probabilityare pre-Buddhistic. The _Vais'e@sika sûtra_ begins with the statement that its objectis to explain virtue, "dharma" This is we know the manifest dutyof Mîmâ@msâ and we know that unlike any other system Jaiminibegins hi...s _Mîmâ@msâ sûtras_ by defining "dharma". This at firstseems irrelevant to the main purpose of Vais'e@sika, viz, the descriptionof the nature of padartha [Footnote ref 2]. He then defines dharma asthat which gives prosperity and ultimate good (_nihsreyasa_) andsays that the Veda must be regarded as valid, since it can dictatethis. He ends his book with the remarks that those injunctions(of Vedic deeds) which are performed for ordinary human motivesbestow prosperity even though their efficacy is not known to usthrough our ordinary experience, and in this matter the Veda mustbe regarded as the authority which dictates those acts [Footnote ref 3].
