  • Udayanaachaarya, Udayanacharya or Udayakara, a Brahmana logician of Mithila wrote a sub-gloss on Vachaspati's work called the Nyaya-vaartika-taatparya-tiikaa-parishuddhi. He wrote several other works such as the Kusumanjali, Atma-tattva-viveka, Kiranaavali and Nyaya-parishishhta (also called Bodha siddhi or Bodha shuddhi). UdayanAchArya (a "tArkika-n") and Kumarilabhatta (a "mImAmsaka-n"). To the "mImAmsakA-s" the Buddhist's summary rejection of Vedic ritualism was the proverbial red rag waved under the nose of a raging bull !Kumarilabhatta, it can be seen, has written copiously criticising the Buddhist's distaste for Vedic ritualismą„¤ He and UdayanAchArya were chiefly responsible for the failure of Buddhism to acquire a large following in the country(Scholars mention here the texts of "tarkapAdam" of Kumarilabhatta and the "bauddhadhikAram" by UdayanAchAryA). Udayanaachazrya was a Hindu philosopher and Nyaya-vaartika scholar from Mithila. Little is known about his biography, but he is famous for many of his seminal theses on Nyaya-vaartik and debate on buddhism and Vedic rituals. His birthplace is a village Kariyan in the modern Samastipur district of Bihar.
