AN EXPOSITION OF BUDDHIST LOGIC

Abstract

The relationship between logic and epistemology is used to study the Logico-Ontological perception. Everybody experiences pain on a daily basis. We must achieve Nirvana, the ultimate aim, in order to escape these sufferings. The Four Noble Truths or Ārya satya catuṣṭaya are the only ways to get from the sorrows of daily life to the ultimatum. we need to have the right knowledge if we want to achieve liberation or to follow the paths of the four noble truths. But where do we find the appropriate knowledge? In order to gain wisdom or the right knowledge, Lord Buddha introduced the Aṣṭāṅgika-Māgga (Right faith, Right resolve, Right speech, Right action, Right living, Right effort, Right thought, Right concentration) doctrine. People who pursue Aṣṭāṅgika-Māgga and the right knowledge can obtain the state of Emancipation.
