The references to the Hindu trivarga (the three aims of life) have been regarded as proving that Vāgbhaṭa embraced the Hindu dharma. The absence of an index on the Saṃgraha makes it impossible to survey all the relevant passages. 241 Part of the passages where the term trivarga occurs or the three aims are referred to may be borrowed from Caraka or Suśruta, thus being of no use in discussing Vāgbhaṭa’s religion.
