Explanation: ? Mimamsa literally means the art of reasoning and interpretation. However, reasoning was used to provide justifications for various Vedic rituals and the attainment of salvation was made dependent on their performance. According to the Mimamsa School, the Vedas contain the eternal truth. The principal object of this philosophy was to acquire heaven and salvation. A person will enjoy the bliss of heaven, so long as his accumulated acts of virtue last. When his accumulated virtues are exhausted, he will return to the Earth, but if he attains salvation, he will be completely free from the cycle of birth and death in the world. Vedanta means the end of the Veda. The Brahmasutra of Badarayana, compiled in the second century BC, formed its basic text. Later, two famous commentaries were written on it, one by Shankara in the ninth century and the other by Ramanuja in the twelfth century. Shankara considers Brahma to be without any attributes, but Ramanuja’s Brahma had attributes. Shankara considered knowledge or Jnana to be the chief means of salvation, but Ramanuja’s road to salvation lays in practising devotion/loving faith. ? The Theory of Karma came to be linked to the Vedanta Philosophy. It means that in his present birth, a person has to bear the consequences of his actions performed in his previous birth. Belief in rebirth or Punarjanma becomes an important element, not only in the Vedanta system, but also in several other systems of Hindu Philosophy. It implies that the people suffer, not because of social or worldly causes, but because of the causes which they neither know, nor which they can control.
