**Vimukti in Astikya:** Various philosophical schools of Brahmanism appeared very early in India, about 300 BCE to early CE. There are six schools, namely, *Sankhya*, *Yoga*, *Vaishesika*, *Nyaya*, *Mimamsa* and *Vedanta*, being collectively called “Astikya”. These schools have their own opinion on the Vimukti.
