 | | Nonetheless, as the various darshanas interacted and exchanged insights, Mimansa came to consider the highest action as resulting in a cessation of advances and retreats on the field of merit, whereby dharma and adharma were swallowed up in a sublime and transcendental state of unbroken awareness of the divine. |  | | Although scholars have speculated on the sequential emergence of the darshanas, and though patterns of interplay can be discerned in their full flowering, their roots lie in the ancient texts and they arise together as distinctive standpoints. |  | | Whilst some Western philosophers have pointed to the unprovable Indian presupposition that the heart of existence is divine, the darshanas reverse this standpoint by affirming that the core of reality is, almost definitionally, the only basis for thinking of the divine. |

 | | The Samkhya darshana rejects the existence of a creator god, since he could be conceived only as a liberated self, or a self bound to karma ( Samkhya-Sutra 1,93). |  | | (Remember that it is the specific Yoga darshana of Patanjali endorsed here, and not other of the many modern Yoga schools that exist today.) As their metaphysical basis is mostly common, in the absence of any supplementary explanation, what will be mentioned here is valid for both schools. |  | | Instead of the pantheist view of liberation, consisting of an impersonal merging of the self with the Absolute, the Samkhya and Yoga darshanas state that the liberated self ( purusha) remains eternally isolated, devoid of any relation with other purushas (or Ishvara, in Yoga) and having as the only possibility that of knowing itself. |

 | | The six systems of Hindu philosophy, (Nyaya, Vaisesika, Samkhya, Yoga, Mimamsa and Vedanta) are known as Darshanas, which means view, vision, seeing, or viewpoint. |  | | They are not separate ideas that can exist apart with integrity, for they are in fact different aspects of the one truth. |  | | In Yoga it is known as samadhi, with much literature on the subject. |

 | | Once experienced, this state is recognized as the true nature of "Self", or "self-realization", and liberates the individual, according to classical yoga thought, from the cause of human suffering, which is the illusion of isolation and separation from universal reality, or the Infinite. |  | | As Huston Smith writes in the classic text The Illustrated World's Religions, "yoga is a method of training designed to lead to integration or union. |  | | Yoga is one of six fundamental systems of Indian thought collectively known as darsana, or "sight; way of seeing." As one of the classical darshanas, the yoga path is actually a very precise and tangible metaphysical methodology for developing a greater clarity of the way in which we "see" and "know" ourselves. |

 | | To maintain that Hinduism teaches a doctrine of individual souls which exist from beginningless time is accepted (as far as I know) only by the Sa.nkhya darshana (school of philosophy or theology) out of the traditional six darshanas. |  | | Madhva's Dvaita Vedaanta scrupulously maintains a distinction between "God" or Brahman the individual souls or "atman"-s which are assumed to be dependent upon Brahman for their existence and thus must ultimately be temporally posterior to Brahman itself. |  | | As for the position that God's otherness is something foreign to Hinduism, that again is contingent upon which darshana (school of philosophy or theology) you choose to examine. |
