The chief of perfected sages, approved by the ācāryas of Sāṅkhya philosophy, he will take the name Kapila in this world and will increase your fame. This person is approved. There is another perfect sage called Kapila, founder of the Sāṅkhya philosophy who is not well approved. He will preach philosophy contrary to the theistic philosophy of the Vedas. It is said in the Padma Purāṇa: kapilo vāsudevo’khyas tattvaṁ sāṅkhyaṁ jagāda ha brahmādibhyaś ca devebhyo bhṛgvādibhyas tathaiva ca tathaivāsuraye sarva-vedārthair upabṛṁhitam sarva-vedaviruddhaṣ ca kapilo ’nyo jagāda ha sāṅkhyam āsuraye anyasmai kutarka-paribṛṁhitam Kapila or Vasudeva spoke the real Sāṅkhya, which is filled with the meaning of all the Vedas to Brahmā and others, the devatās, the sages such as Bhṛgu, and to a person called Āsuri. Another Kapila spoke Sāṅkhya which is contrary to the Vedas, filled with bad logic, to another person called Āsuri.
