Some of the better-known sub-traditions of Vedanta include Advaita (non-dualism), Vishistadvaita (qualified non- dualism), and Dvaita (dualism). Over time, Vedanta adopted ideas from other orthodox (astika) schools like Yoga and Nyaya, and became the most prominent school of Hinduism. Many extant forms of Vaishnavism, Shaivism and Shaktism have been significantly shaped and influenced by the doctrines of different schools of Vedanta. The Vedanta school has had a historic and central influence on Hinduism. The denotation of Vedanta subsequently widened to include the various philosophical traditions based on to the prasthanatrayi. The Upanishads may be regarded as the end of Vedas in different senses- these were the last literary products of the Vedic period; these mark the culmination of Vedic thought; these were taught and debated in the brahmacharya (student) stage.
