In Hinduism
Vedanta (school of philosophy)
: Wikisource: Ashtavakra Gita(निर्विचा�) refers to �(the state of) lack of discrimination�, according to the Aṣṭvakragīt (5th century BC), an ancient text on spirituality dealing with Advaita-Vednta topics.—Accordingly, [as Aṣṭavakra says to Janaka]: “[...] So long as desire, which is the state of lack of discrimination (Ծ), remains [spṛh jīvati yvadvai Ծdaśspadam], the sense of revulsion and attraction will remain, which is the root and branch of Saṃsra. Desire springs from usage, and aversion from abstention, but the wise man is free from the pairs of opposites like a child, and becomes established. [...]�.

Vedanta (वेदान्�, vednta) refers to a school of orthodox Hindu philosophy (astika), drawing its subject-matter from the Upanishads. There are a number of sub-schools of Vedanta, however all of them expound on the basic teaching of the ultimate reality (brahman) and liberation (moksha) of the individual soul (atman).
