    This article examines the Buddhist concept of pratītyasamutpāda or dependent origination from a Vedic perspective. It argues that dependent origination has parallels in Vedic thought on causality and the interdependence of phenomena. While the Vedic view placed more emphasis on ritual action, Buddhist dependent origination focused more on understanding the nature of reality through philosophical inquiry and meditation.
