[mīmāṁsaka] school of thought. A Hindu school of philosophy, which considers [vedāntic] teachings as self-originated and ultimate, and asserts that the self is permanent, partless and a substantially existent consciousness. They deny the existence of the omniscient mind and true speech, and also assert that there is no liberation which is the cessation of defilement, since the defilements are an intrinsic part of the mind. However, they assert that a person can attain Brahmahood through the practice of sacrifice.
