The theory of colors according to the ancient Indians was rooted clear and comprehensively in the Sankhya-Patanjali system. As was known then, the theory was essentially metaphysical in concept and based on then prevalent basics of natural philosophy. What appears striking is that there has been a total failure to understand the role of the eye in the different perceptions. The attempt cannot also be summarily dismissed as it runs parallel to information processing approach in the metaphysical plane.
古印度人的色彩理论清晰且全面地植根于数论派-帕坦伽利体系。当时人们所知的是,该理论在概念上本质上是形而上学的,且基于当时流行的自然哲学基础。引人注目的是,人们完全没有理解眼睛在不同感知中的作用。由于它在形而上学层面与信息处理方法并行,所以这种尝试也不能被轻易摒弃。
