He named these particles Parmanu.
Explanation:
- Acharya Kanad is the founder of the system of philosophy (Darshan) called vaisheshik that propounds the doctrine of parmanu (atoms) as part of its metaphysics.
- Thus the acharya Kanad came to a conclusion that particles cannot be divided further.
- Acharya Kanad thus named that indivisible tiniest of tiny particles of matter as 'Parmanu' or 'anu'.
- We commonly call this indivisible tiniest of tiny particles of matter as atoms.
- Paramanu is a technical term in Buddhism hinduism and Jainism.
- It is defined as the smallest and indivisible particle of matter.
- In Jainism it is one of the two types of pudgala (matter) the other being skandha.
