In one important aspect the aim of the Mimamsa school differs from other schools. Human life should pursue not Moksa but Dharma, whether as a means to an end or as an end itself. This at least was the view of the early Mimaskas. In that early period, only Dharma, Artha and Kama (Tri-Varga) were accepted as human values and the Moksa was not included. It was this idea that gave prominence to many of the rites in Mimamsa philosophy. As doctrine of Moksa entered Mimamsa, many rites and rituals were virtually abandoned.

Jaimini showed the way to attain happiness in Svarga or heaven, but he did not tell anything about the problem of the final emancipation. The later writers like '''Prabhakara''' and '''Kumarila''', however could not avoid this as it engaged the attention of the thinkers of other schools.
