== षड्-दर्शनानि ॥ Shad Darshanas ==
It is to be noted that five of the Shad Darshana shastras, namely Saankhya, Vaiseshika, Nyaya, Mimaamsa (purva and uttara) and Yoga are deeply rooted on vedic principles, hence called Astika darshanas according to many scholars, though some believe that Samkhya is not an Astika Darshana. Charvaka or lokayuta is the only darshana which does not accept vedas as source of knowledge, hence called as Nastika darshana.
