Sign in to saveAlso known as Sankhya
Samkhya or Sankhya (; ) is a dualistic orthodox school of Hindu philosophy. It views reality as composed of two independent principles, Puruṣa ('consciousness' or spirit) and Prakṛti (nature or matter, including the human mind and emotions).
Samkhya is an ancient Hindu philosophy that divides reality into two separate, independent elements: Puruṣa, which is pure consciousness or spirit, and Prakṛti, which is nature and matter (including the human mind). This framework matters because it offers a distinctive way of understanding the relationship between consciousness and the physical world, influencing how practitioners think about the mind, body, and spiritual liberation.
