Introduction
Six philosophical thoughts, most often called as Şad Darsanas of ancient India are the help books to understand the different aspects of the comprehensive knowledge enshrined in the Vedas. These six Darsanas are not different from Vedas, but are the part and parcel 210 of the long Vedic tradition of India. That is why, these books are called as Astika (theist) Darsanas as they are pro-Vedas or say follow the guidelines of the Vedas. The 211 philosophical thoughts developed other than these were called as Nästika Darsanas or the philosophical thoughts developed disregarding the guidelines of the Vedas. The terms Astika and Nastika denote respectively pro-Vedas and anti-Vedas. The Yogadarśana deals with the spiritual/metaphysical aspect of creation. Its main objective is to help human beings to develop themselves to the extent as to realise the Supreme Power/God.
