v1.c17.67

This account of Sāṃkhya ¹⁷⁰ agrees, according to S. Dasgupta, ¹⁷¹ with the version propounded by Pañcaśikha in the Mahābhārata. ¹⁷² A cogent refutation of this opinion is due to V.M. Bedekar, ¹⁷³ who studied and summarized the differences between a fluid proto-Sāṃkhya, found in the Mokṣadharma ¹⁷⁴ of the Mahābhārata, the Carakasamhitā, and the Buddhacarita, ¹⁷⁵ and the later philosophical Sāṃkhya. ¹⁷⁶
