Charvaka was the main expounder of the materialistic philosophy. This philosophy came to be known as the Lokayata, which means the ideas derived from common people. • It underlined the importance of intimate contact with the world (loka), and showed lack of belief in the other world. • He opposed to the quest for spiritual salvation. He denied the existence of any divine or supernatural agency. He accepted the existence/reality of only those things which could be experienced by human senses and organs. This implied a clear lack of faith in the existence of brahma and God. Hence option (c) is the correct answer.Â
