Kṛṣṇa Miśra’s 11th-century allegorical drama Prabodhacandrodaya offers a critical secondary source on ancient Indian materialism. Translated by Dr. Sita K. Nambiar, the excerpted dialogue features Grand Delusion and Cārvāka advocating perception-based epistemology, physicalism, and sensory pleasure while rejecting Vedic ritualism, karmic retribution, and an immortal soul.
