Unlike other commentaries on the Sāṅkhyakārikā, the Yuktidīpikā (circa sixth to eighth centuries) problematised the Sāṅkhya tradition's equivocal attitudes toward the Veda. While submitting itself to the authority of the Veda, the Yuktidīpikā's commentary on Sāṅkhyakārikā 2 illustrates how Sāṅkhya thinkers of the post-Gupta period safeguarded the identity of Brahmin renouncers. Aligning its doctrine with the Upaniṣad, the end of the Veda, the Yuktidīpikā launched a Sāṅkhya navigation of the central concern of Indian intellectuals, Vedic hermeneutics, and attempted to secure Sāṅkhya's place within Vedic orthodoxy. This article discusses the Yuktidīpikā's strategy for surviving the peer pressure of Vedic ritualists, as represented by the Mīmāṃsakas, while maintaining Sāṅkhya superiority by exploiting the inner division within the Veda.

与其他对数论的评论不同，《尤克蒂迪皮卡》（约六至八世纪）提出了数论传统对吠陀的模棱两可的态度。《 Yuktidipika 》对《Sāṅkhyakārikārikā 2》的注释在服从《吠陀》权威的同时，说明了后笈多时期的Sāṅkhya思想家如何维护婆罗门弃绝者的身份。《尤克提迪皮卡》将其教义与《吠陀经》的终结《奥义书》相结合，发起了对印度知识分子的核心关注点——吠陀诠释学的数论导航，并试图确保数论在吠陀正统中的地位。本文讨论Yuktidīpika这是为了在以 Mīmāṃsakas 为代表的吠陀仪式主义者的同伴压力下生存下来的策略，同时通过利用吠陀内部的分歧来保持数论的优越性。
