CRITICISM OF JAIMINI'S PHILOSOPHY The Purva Mimamsa system of philosophy is be unsatisfactory and incomplete, inasmuch as it not deal with the problems of the Ultimate Reality ._ relation to soul and matter. There is no philoso'llitt view of the world. The central feature is the perforniariPille'll of the sacrifices. This is the amost essential ee fundamental thing. "Perform sacrifices and en.j0,7 !)1‘ Heaven"—this is the sum and substance of jainW4 teaching. This is his Moksha or the final goat This cannot give satisfaction to the thinkers who know tha'; the enjoyment in heaven is transitory, imperfect, sensual and worldly.
