1. The Pre-Systemic Foundations

The Upanishads: Traces the evolution of core metaphysical concepts such as Brahman (the ultimate reality), Atman (the individual self), and the foundational germs of later philosophical systems.
The Epics and Puranas: Analyzes spiritual, philosophical, and ethical theories presented across the Ramayana, Mahabharata, and Manusamhita.
The Bhagavad Gita: Deeply explores the internal theology of the text, emphasizing its integration of Karma (action), Jnana (knowledge), and Bhakti (devotion).

2. Heterodox Materialism

The Carvaka School: Details India’s early materialist and empiricist philosophy. It focuses on their radical epistemological stance (accepting perception as the only valid source of knowledge) and their rejection of the afterlife, karma, and supernatural elements.

3. Orthodox Logical and Realist Systems (Astika)

Vaisesika System: Thoroughly breaks down the ontology of reality into its core categories (padarthas), atomism (paramanuvada), and theories of causation.
