Vedanta
.
Vedanta is one of the most famous and popular vedic darshan.
Vedanta means end of the Veda, and the Vedanta is based on the
teaching of the Upanishad.
According to the Vedantic Darshan there is only one Principle
called : Brahman.
The phenomenal reality we perceive is an illusion (Maya) created by
the fact that we live in the ignorance (avidya).
The Brahman is reflected the core of each individual in the form of
Atma.
The individual Atma (Jivatma) is one with universal soul (paramatma)
and the goal of yoga is to realize this unity.
The samkhya model of the tattva has been adopted in the Vedanta
system and developed and Prakriti become Maya.
The path used by the vedantin is mainly Jnana yoga , Jnana means
knowledge and it refer to the higher knowledge, the knowledge that
Brahman is the only reality.
To do this is necessary to develop some quality that are necessary to
move from the impermanence duality of maya to the eternal reality
of Brahman.
Adi Shankaracharya was the most important Vedanta Teacher,
shankaracharya
Brahman , accordin to Vedanta is the only reality, and the Atman is
Brahman.
