Vedanta (वेदान्त, vedānta) refers to a school of orthodox Hindu philosophy (astika), drawing its subject-matter from the Upanishads.

The mobile and immobile (universe) is Stillness (nirācāra), the essence of which is bliss and consciousness [i.e., ānandabodha-sadbhāva]. (Bhairava the) Skyfarer is beyond the energy of the Void (khakalā). Within the Skyfarer is the Mistress of the Skyfarer (Khageśvarī). [...]”.
