BASIC FEATURES OF INDIAN PHILOSOPHY,
MEANING AND SCOPE
Philosophy in its widest etymological sense can be described as “love
for knowledge”. Philosophy deals with problems of nature.
As philosophy aims at knowledge of truth, it is termed in Indian
literature, 'the vision of truth' (darsana).
Every Indian school holds, in its own way, that there can be a direct
realization of truth (tattva-darsana).
Indian philosophy discusses the different problems of Metaphysics,
Ethics, Logic, Psychology and Epistemology, but generally it does not
discuss them separately.
