ABSOLUTE DISREGARD (FOR THE ATOMIC THEORY)."
Vedānta-pārijāta-saurabha

Vedānta-kaustubha
Certain portions,—such as the doctrine of a pre-existent cause and
the rest,—of the doctrine of the causality of pradhāna, though rejected

doctrine of the causality of Brahman by the doctrine of the causality
of atoms which is to be rejected from a distance
