Nyaya sutras chapter 8

Question 1

How does Nyaya argue that karma is directly connected to individual selves? Why is important for Nyaya?

Answer 1

Karma is situated in the self and creates the body which is the centerpoint of experience of whatever impact karma has on the self. This is important for nyaya because it helps distinguish it’s philosophy from samkya by stating that the conciousness is still apart of the mind and impacted by karma
