अग्निशिखान्यायः (agnizikhAnyAyaH)

 
लौकिकन्यायः
English
As the flame of the fire always goes up, it is also natural for the soul to go upwards. This is suggested in "Sarvadarśana Samgraha"--a book by the Jain philosophers. This work gives four illustrations of the natural movements of the following things:
(i) Rotation of a potter's wheel.
(ii) Floating on water of a gourd whose mud cover is removed.
(iii) The fallen seed of a castor tree goes up and sticks to the tree.
(iv) The upward surge of a flame.
