In Hinduism
Vyakarana (Sanskrit grammar)
Sarvadarśanasaṃgraha (सर्वदर्शनसंग्रह) is the name of a philosophical work partly inspired by the science of Sanskrit grammar (vyākaraṇa).—Sanskrit grammar is also accepted in India’s intellectual tradition as a philosophy. Śrī Mādhavācārya (13th century) in his Sarvadarśanasaṃgraha has a chapter on ‘Pāṇini Darśana’, Pāṇini’s philosophy, one of the sixteen philosophies explained in that important book.

Vyakarana (व्याकरण, vyākaraṇa) refers to Sanskrit grammar and represents one of the six additional sciences (vedanga) to be studied along with the Vedas. Vyakarana concerns itself with the rules of Sanskrit grammar and linguistic analysis in order to establish the correct context of words and sentences.
General definition (in Hinduism)
Sarvadarśanasaṃgraha (सर्वदर्शनसंग्रह) by Mādhava is the name of a work belonging to the category of Darśana (philosophical system).—The word darśana literally means ‘the act of seeing or viewing’. It also means ‘a philosophical system’, which in India, according to the nature of the system, may be more or less theological, logical, systematic, theistic, atheist, related to a religious tradition or independent. The word appears in the titles of compendiums of such systems. Well known examples are [e.g.,] the Sarvadarśanasaṃgraha of Mādhava [...].
Sarvadarśanasaṃgraha (सर्वदर्शनसंग्रह) (lit., “ompendium of all the darśanas”) by Mādhavācārya (fourteenth century CE) refers to the most famous text of the Saṃgraha literary genre.—The Sarvadarśanasaṃgraha includes 16 chapters, each one of them dedicated to a different ‘vision’ or ‘point of view’ (darśana). This term, nowadays usually employed with reference to the six ‘canonical’ schools of classical Indian philosophy, that is sāṃkhya and yoga, vaiśeṣika and nyāya, and finally pūrvamīmāṃsā and uttaramīmāṃsā (or popularly, vedānta), derives from the root (dhātu) dṛś, ‘to see’.
As far as the authorship of the Sarvadarśanasaṃgraha is concerned, a great debate is active about the identity of its author: should we consider Mādhava as the same as Vidyāraṇya (born to Māyaṇācārya and Śrīmatīdevī in Pampakṣetra), the brother of Sāyaṇa, or identical with Sāyaṇa, or what else? Should we consider Vidyāraṇya as a different person, and Mādhava and Sāyaṇa as his disciples? The author of the treatise should be identified with Mādhava-Sāyaṇa, or with Bharatītīrtha, or with Cinnambhaṭṭa? (Thakur 1961).

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
