The
Acarya views the last stage or asrama in a man's life as the
years during which he renounces Vedic works and devotes himself
to meditation and metaphysical inquiry. But, unlike the Buddha,
he does not want Vedic karma to be given up in the earlier
stages. According to him, only after a man cleanses his
consciousness through years of Vedic rituals is he to become
exclusively devoted Atmic inquiry. First accept the karma that
Mimamsa asks us to perform and finally give up that very karma as
suggested by Buddhism.
The
Acarya goes along with systems like Buddhism, Mimamsa, Sankhya,
and Nyaya up to a point. He accepts them on a certain level, but
on another level he disapproves of them. Each of these systems
regards one aspect of truth to be final. Our Acarya harmonises
them all into a single whole Truth.
