Isvarakrsna

Isvarakrsna

Isvarakrsna (Fifth Century A.D.) Whose name is connected with the "Samkya Karika", probably the oldest of the six traditional systems of Indian philosophy which has its foundation attributed to the sage Kapila.

Samkya philosophy is said to have inspired Buddha, (though this is highly questionable as the Buddha predates this time by about 10 centuries) and probably Gnosticism & Neo-Platonism.
