Carvaka school (materialism)
Order Description
Thus, you are asked to choose two out of a number of possible questions, and to write short essays in response to each question. No introduction or conclusion is needed; please jump straight to answering the question, but do so in a well-organized fashion, using complete sentences and paragraphs. Making a short outline or list of points for yourself before writing is often helpful.
Required texts:
1) A Source Book in Indian Philosophy (paperback), ed. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan & Charles A. Moore (Princeton University Press, 1967).
2) Sue Hamilton, Indian Philosophy: A Very Short Introduction (Oxford University Press, 2001).
3) Walpola Rahula, What the Buddha Taught (Buddha Educational Foundation, 2004).
