Amitagati

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Amitagati was a Jain philosopher of the Digambara school who lived in Malwa during the 11th century in the time of the Paramara rulers.[1] His last known date is 1014 CE.[2] His Dharmaparīkṣā is the story of two demi-gods (vidyadhara), one of whom tries to convert the other to Jainism by pointing out the logical flaws of Hinduism. The text belongs to a long tradition of critical dialogue between Jain and Mīmāṃsāka thinkers.[3]
