Detailed explanation-1: -Nature and Sources of knowledge Mimamsa admits two kinds of valid knowledge – immediate and mediate. Immediate knowledge arises in the soul when the object is in direct contact with both the internal sense organ (mind) and the external 5 sense organs.
Detailed explanation-2: -Mimansa divides the entire Veda consisting of Mantra and Brahmana into five types, based on the assumption that the Vedas are self-validating and do not require any external tool for their validation. The five types are Vidhi, Nishedha, Mantra, Namadheya, and Arthavada.
Detailed explanation-3: -Purva Mimamsa Epistemology admits Knowledge as being self evident and accepts 6 ways of obtaining it. Knowledge is of two kinds – immediate and mediate. The six means are Sense perception, Comparison, Inference, Testimony, Postulation and non-perception.
Detailed explanation-4: -Mimamsa, also known as Purva-Mimamsa and Karma-Mimamsa, deals with the early portions of the Vedas (also called Dharma-Mimamsa.) The Mimamsa Philosophy believes in the presence of an everlasting planet and its infinite number of individual souls.
