"There is no other world other than this; there is no heaven and no hell; the realm of Shiva and like regions, are invented by stupid impostors. (...) The enjoyment of heaven lies in eating delicious food, keeping company of young women, using fine clothes, perfumes, garlands, sandal paste. (...) While life is yours, live joyously; none can escape Death's searching eye: when once this frame of ours they burn, how shall it ever again return?" (Cārvāka/Lokāyata)
