== Points of Differences ==
 +
While we see above the different points on which all Darshana shastras agree on there are some points of differences for which each shastra proposes its theory and standpoint. A few such concepts are as follows

# '''Nature of the World : Real or Unreal.''' The outside world is known to us through the mind assisted by the operation of the senses. However, whether the external world is dependent on the mind or not is an important controversy among philosophers. Those darshanas which believe that independent existence of the external world are described as Realistic and those that believe in the reverse are termed Idealistic.
 +
# '''Nature of Ultimate Reality : One (Monistic View) or Many (Pluralistic View).''' Nyaya similar to Samkhya darshana maintains that it is many, while Advaita vedanta maintains the Brahman is One.
