| 摘要 | The meaning of "cause" is much wider in some Indian philosophical schools than in the west. The Buddhist terms, "Hetu" and "Pratyaya"，cover an unusual variety of causal notions. The Vaisesika notion of cause is said to be closer to commonsense. A causal substrate in this system approximates the notion of "material" cause in Aristotle. But the "non-substantial" cause is a unique notion in this system. The Nyaya critique of causation (in Udayana) can be profitably compared and contrasted with that of David Hume. It has been further argued in the paper that mill was a poor defender of Hume against Reid，and that the Navya-Nyaya analysis of the 'unconditionality' criterion was slightly better than that of mill. |
