| | Mimamsa |
 | | Mimamsa claims that the scriptures are the only way of knowing about dharma, and only by following the scriptures can we attain dharma as the good. | | | Dharma is a key word in Mimamsa doctrine, being used in the sense of sacred and moral duties. | | | To establish the truth of Vedic injunctions, Mimamsa tries to prove that words and their meanings and the relationship between the two are eternal. |

| | purva |
| | Mimamsas affirmed that the Vedas were the source of perfect knowledge, and believed that the Vedas had not been composed either by God or by human beings, but rather simply heard by the ancient sages through their advanced powers of perception, and then transmitted orally from generation to generation. | | | Mimamsas believed in the existence of the soul, and the necessary connection of actions with their results inherent in the notion of karma, since both of these things were attested in the Vedas. | | | The Mimamsas were less unified on the existence of God. |

| | At a later stage, however, the Mimamsa school changed its views in this regard and began to teach the doctrines of God and mukti (freedom). | | | The more abstruse Vedanta (meaning literally the end of the Vedas) is the essence of the Vedas, encapsulated in the Upanishads which are commentaries on the four original books (Rig, Yajur, Sama and Atharva). | | | See the articles on Yoga and History of Yoga for an in-depth discussion. |

| | From the point of view of Mimamsa, it is a truth that ritual, prayers and sacrifices to the causal reality envisioned as so many gods and goddesses bears auspicious and abundant fruit. | | | Mimamsa (literally, "Reflection") is often translated as "The Way of Ritual". | | | In this case, it is not the insights of Nyaya-Vaishesika, or of Samkhya, nor the meditative experiences of Yoga, nor the way of ritual (Mimamsa) that have provided the breakthrough. |

| | Why I Am Not a Hindu |
| | Mimamsa, which is an orthodox Hindu school of thought, considers attainment of heaven (swarga), instead of moksha, as the highest end of life. | | | But Mimamsa, which does not believe in the existence of god, declares that the Vedas like the world, are eternal. | | | As mentioned earlier, according to Nyaya, the authority of the Vedas is derived from their being the words of god. |

| | Mimamsa is based on the revelation in the Vedas, which are considered as eternal as the world. | | | However, in Mimamsa Vedic prayers, rituals, and sacrifices are emphasized as the means of achieving this. | | | In India there are six orthodox schools of philosophy which recognize the authority of the Vedas as divine revelation, and they generally function as pairs - Nyaya and Vaishesika, Mimamsa and Vedanta, and Samkhya and Yoga. |

| | The aim of the Mimamsa is attainment of heaven (Svarga), the abode of the gods who are eulogised through the Veda Mantras and propitiated through sacrifices performed by the application of the requisite Mantras or formulae for the invocation of the divinities. | | | The Mimamsa takes this pain of explanation and interpretation to establish finally the validity of the performance of sacrifices according to the injunctions of the Brahmana texts, in order that the performer may reach heaven. | | | The Veda teaches Dharma, which the Mimamsa defines as religious duty in the form of do's and don'ts in the field of action or duty. |

| | But the mimamsa is concerned with the Veda that is deemed eternal and self-existent (and not man-made), that deals with religious matters, cannot be amended or repealed and is to be expounded according to the intent of the Vedic words. | | | Even without recourse to the principles of mimamsa, it was possible to arrive at the same conclusion by reliance on the principles of interpretation à la Maxwell. | | | This can only come about if mimamsa discipline along with the requisite study of Sanskrit language, together with its grammar and a basic knowledge of the principles of nyaya, are taught to the law students. |

| | Among the nastika schools, I omitted Jainism and Buddhism because although they do exhibit atheistic elements, they are not considered under the umbrella of pure Hinduism. | | | The orthodox, or astika, traditions are those that accept the Vedas — namely the Nyaya, Vaisesika, Samkhya, Yoga, Purva Mimamsa, and Vedanta Systems. | | | Most of these schools exhibit weak atheism — they simply do not contain a God in their metaphysics. |
