Hindu Darsanas or Schools of Philosophy
Hindu philosophy is deeply integrated into Hinduism. It is difficult to separate the two. However, it is also true that some schools of Hinduism are atheistic and secular and approach the truths from perceptual, verifiable and objective experience. Traditionally, scholars accept six major schools of Hinduism called the Darsanas.
