The primary aim of the study is to discern and evaluate the fundamental themes inherent in these philosophical systems. To facilitate this comparative exploration, the article employs Plotinus's seminal work, the Enneads, as the representative source for Neoplatonism, and Īśvarakṛṣṇa's Sāṃkhyakārikā, recognized as the earliest extant treatise within the Sāṃkhya tradition. This comparative analysis seeks to illuminate both the commonalities and divergences that exist between Neoplatonism and Sāṃkhya, thereby providing insights into their historical evolution, the influence of cultural factors, and the nuanced interplay between Eastern and Western philosophical traditions. It emphasizes the paramount importance of acknowledging the intricate philosophical potential within religious traditions and their intricate dialogues with philosophical discourse. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Metaphilosophy is the property of Wiley-Blackwell and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
