[[Pratyaksha]] (Samskrit : ) pramana is made of two words Prati and Aksha. Meaning : In front of the eyes. Knowledge which is produced by the contact of a sense-organ with an object. Perception is a source of direct knowledge and leads one to apprehend the reality. All other means of knowledge are indirect sources of apprehending reality. Example: When the sense-organ, i.e. eye, comes in direct contact with a pot, there arises a perceptual knowledge of pot. | [[Pratyaksha]] (Samskrit : ) pramana is made of two words Prati and Aksha.
