		Since, Kapila's incarnation took place for the benefit of mankind by preaching the essence of self-knowledge or the real knowledge, hence he first chose his own mother to give that knowledge.
		The divine knowledge which Maharshi Kapila gave to his mother has been described very beautifully in the third section of Srimad Bhagwat that is - detachment form all the sensual pleasures of the world is a must to achieve self-knowledge.
		Maharshi Kapila is one of those twelve revered teachers of Srimad Bhagwat.

		Kapila was born at a place near Jhalda in the district of Purulia in West Bengal, and he did his sa'dhana' (spiritual practices) at Gangasagar in Sagar-dwip.) Common people cannot understand philosophical intricacies.
		Since Maharshi Kapila fixed the total sam'khya' [number] at twenty-four, his school of philosophy came to be known as "Sa'm'khya".
		People wondered how Kapila, the greatest scholar of that age, who had long pondered the mysteries of creation, having formulated those twenty-four principles and given the concept of Janya Iishvara (the Entity instrumental for creation), had utterly failed to elaborate or clarify this concept further.

	Approfondimento sul Sankhya
		Kapila adesso ribadisce forse con maggiore forza di altri il modo di ottenere la perfezione, quando afferma che nessuno, per quanto potente possa essere, è in grado di realizzarsi pienamente a meno che si impegni nella pratica del servizio devozionale alla Suprema Personalità di Dio.
		Dunque Sri Kapila pone enfasi sulla bhakti in modo molto vigoroso.
		A meno che non si tratti di un caso straordinario di omonimia plurima (l'avatara Kapila aveva avuto discepoli dallo stesso nome), dobbiamo ritenere che Ishvarakrishna si riferisse proprio a lui oppure che la seconda discendenza sia stata costruita di proposito per assomigliare all’altra.
