Kapila. It asserts duality द्वैतं, or the co-existence of
two principles in the universe, viz. spirit and matter.
Its doctrines being opposed to the oneness of the Vedas
led to the formation of another school called the Ve-

aim of the Vedas was to inculcate the oneness of Spirit or
God) सांख्यः, सांख्यदर्शनं
