@unmind samhkya is kinda similar and while I know the tattvas a lot of it goes over my head... I prefer to learn vedanta and yoga

@georgia abhidharma goes over my head too. interestingly samkhya is mentioned by Xuanzang in the Cheng Weishi Lun (a commentary on Vasubandhu's 33 verses on consciousness only) in order to prove the emptiness of dharmas by disproving non-Buddhist schools that teach the reality of phenomena/dharmas. Some of it was convincing, but mostly it flew over my head

@georgia basically all i know about samkhya i learned from this shaiva podcaster who turned out to be a huge creep, which kinda encouraged me to turn back to buddhism among other things
