साङ्ख्य

Shabda-Sagara | Sanskrit  English |   | 
साङ्ख्य  mfn.  (-ङ्ख्यः-ङ्ख्यी-ङ्ख्यं)
   1. numeral, relating to number. 2. Deliberating, reasoning.
   3. rational, discriminative.
  m.  (-ङ्ख्यः)
   1. The Sānkhya system of philosophy, ascribed originally to the Muni KAPILA, and so called as enumera- ting twenty-five Tatwas or true principles; its object is to effect the final liberation of the twenty-fifth Tatwa, viz. [Page779-a+ 60] Purusha, (the soul,) from the fetters of the phenomenal crea- tion by conveying a correct knowledge of the twenty-four other Tatwas; the Sānkhya system agrees with Vedāntism in being synthetical, so differing from the analytical Nyāya; its great point of divergence from the Vedānta is its maintaining two principles, which the Vedānta denies.
   2. A follower of the Sānkhya system of philosophy.
   E. सङ्ख्या number, &c., अण् aff.
