This research paper offers a comprehensive and philosophical analysis of the Samkhya paradigm as portrayed in Kalidasa’s masterpiece, Abhijnanshakuntalam. Drawing upon the rich tapestry of Sanskrit literature and ancient Indian philosophy, the study explores the profound interplay between the Samkhya philosophy and the narrative elements of the play. Through a meticulous examination of the characters, plot development, and underlying philosophical concepts, this analysis sheds light on the intricate relationship between the eternal consciousness (Purusha) and the ever-changing material world (Prakriti). The paper delves into the symbolic and metaphorical representations of Purusha and Prakriti, unraveling their implications for human existence and spiritual realization. By employing a literary and formal language at an advanced level, this research unveils the deeper layers of Abhijnanshakuntalam and its resonance with Samkhya philosophy.
