Abstract:
Since the Vedic period, the Lokayat Darshan, also known as Charvak Darshan, adopted a utilitarian approach to happiness and the representation of the materialistic Indian tradition is found in the Vedas. This tradition, while describing the help and the economic meaning of life as the goal of life, considers the importance of religion and upbringing only because material material material is available. There is no such thing as moksha, death is not moksha, life itself is the exaltation, so it is said in the Vedas, ‘re-purity na bhavet'. Charvaka rejects supernatural, superficial or supernatural or after death or any earlier existence. God is not perceptible to our senses, so to believe them is not true. The existence is only of materiality. , Water, fire and air. This life is a natural event whose story begins at birth and ends with death. There is no difference between the living and the living. The wise person attains maximum happiness in this life.
