“…Berdasarkan metodologi Vedanta, maka metode pembelajaran filsafat Hindu secara umum dapat dikonstruksi sebagai berikut. Pertama adalah pembelajaran upaniṣad, kedua adalah Bhagavad-Gītā dan ketiga adalah pustaka Sūtra berikut bhasya dan vartika serta ulasan-ulasan yang telah diberikan oleh guru-guru dan para pemikir (Freschi et al, 2017).…”

The method of learning philosophy is an important key in understanding the tree of knowledge of Indian philosophy. This method has been explored by sages and writers since classical times as an integral part of the discussion of darśana. However, this method does not seem to have been adopted in learning Hindu philosophy in Indonesia. This research is a text study that discusses the Hindu philosophy learning method described by Hindu philosophers and thinkers as a learning tool. Data obtained through literature study by examining several classical Indian philosophical texts, data analysis using Content Analysis. An important finding of this research is that the methodology of learning Hindu philosophy must begin by studying the three starting-points known as praṣṭana-trayā namely the upaniṣads, Bhagavad-gitā and the sūtra texts. Starting from the three starting-points of Vedānta (three starting-points of Vedānta) as praṣṭana-trayā namely upaniṣad, Bhagavad-gitā and Brahmā-Sūtra. In Vedanta it is called the triple cannon of Vedānta. Without following this procedure, failure will overshadow the students of philosophy. Therefore, learning praṣṭana-trayā is the starting point in an effort to understand the scientific tree of Hindu philosophy. These three starting points for learning philosophy should be adopted properly in order to improve thinking skills, reasoning skills, including improving writing, debate, argumentation and discussion skills.

“…The corresponding axiom is (ψ → ¬ϕ) → ¬(O(ϕ/θ) ∧ O(ψ/θ)) which guarantees that if ϕ and ψ exclude each other, then they cannot both be obligatory under the same conditions θ. Finally, Axiom (3) arises from a discussion (in ŚBh on PMS 6.1.25) on the eligibility to perform sacrifices (see [6]), which can be abstracted as follows:…”

The Mīmāṁ sā school of Indian philosophy has for its main purpose the interpretation of injunctions that are found in a set of sacred texts, the Vedas. In their works, Mīmāṁ sā authors provide some of the most detailed and systematic examinations available anywhere of statements with a deontic force; however, their considerations have generally not been registered outside of Indological scholarship. In the present article we analyze the Mīmāṁ sā theory of Vedic injunctions from a logical and philosophical point of view. The theory at issue can be regarded as a system of reasoning based on certain fundamental principles, such as the distinction between strong and weak duties, and on a taxonomy of ritual actions. We start by reconstructing the conceptual framework of the theory and then move to a formalization of its core aspects. Our contribution represents a new perspective to study Mīmāṁ sā and outlines its relevance, in general, for deontic reasoning.
