Vedanta (school of philosophy)
: IEP: Advaita VedantaAdvaita Ved膩nta is one version of 惫别诲腻苍迟补. Ved膩nta is nominally a school of Indian philosophy, although in reality it is a label for any hermeneutics that attempts to provide a consistent interpretation of the philosophy of the Upani峁ds or, more formally, the canonical summary of the Upani峁ds, B膩dar膩ya峁嘺鈥檚 Brahma-s奴tra. Advaita is often translated as 鈥渘on-dualism鈥� though it literally means 鈥渘on-secondness.鈥� Although 艢a峁卥ara is regarded as the promoter of Advaita Ved膩nta as a distinct school of Indian philosophy, the origins of this school predate 艢a峁卥ara.
The essential philosophy of Advaita is an idealist monism, and is considered to be presented first in the Upani峁ds and consolidated in the Brahma-s奴tra by this tradition. According to Advaita metaphysics, Brahman鈥攖he ultimate, transcendent and immanent God of the latter Vedas鈥攁ppears as the world because of its creative energy (尘腻测腻). The world has no separate existence apart from Brahman.
Vedanta (啶掂啶︵ぞ啶ㄠ啶�, 惫别诲腻苍迟补) refers to a school of orthodox Hindu philosophy (astika), drawing its subject-matter from the Upanishads. There are a number of sub-schools of Vedanta, however all of them expound on the basic teaching of the ultimate reality (brahman) and liberation (moksha) of the individual soul (atman).
