*Vāda* has manifested in our responses to the opinions on Indian traditions of intellectual discourse by Western philosophers. S. Radhakrishnan gave a critique of Albert Switzer’s view which he had expressed in *Indian Thought and Its Development* in 1939. Switzer had opined that Indian philosophy has been escapist. Radhakrishnan challenged his views in his *Eastern Religion and Western Thought* in the year 1939 itself. In another work he also presented a critique of Burgsan.
