(Redirected from Purva Mimamsa Sutras)

'Jaimini' was a student of Badarayana. His Purva Mimamsa Sutras, dated to ca. the 3rd century BC, contains about 3,000 sutras and is the foundational text of the Mimamsa school. The text aims at an exegesis of the Vedas with regard to ritual practice (karma) and religious duty (dharma), commenting on the early Upanishads. Jaimini's Mimamsa is a ritualist conter-movement to the mysticist Vedanta currents of his day. He was commented upon by Śābara in the early centuries CE.
