According to the samkhya system the tattvas comes in

four groups, if I have understood things correctly.

 

1. Purusha (pure spirit)

2. Prakriti, (primal nature) she is the cause but not

effect of anything

3. Mahat, (Cosmic intelligence, Ahamkara, Manas) they

work both as causes and effects

4. Vikriti, (Pancha Tanmatras, Pancha Jnanendriyani,

Pancha Karmendriyani) these arise through ego and work

only as effects but not causes.

 

Is this a correct way of looking at this system?
