Vijnanabhiksu

Vijñānabhikṣu (also spelled Vijnanabhikshu) was a Hindu philosopher from Bihar, variously dated to the 15th or 16th century,[1][2] known for his commentary on various schools of Hindu philosophy, particularly the Yoga text of Patanjali.[3][4] His scholarship stated that there is a unity between Vedānta, Yoga, and Samkhya philosophies,[5][6] and he is considered a significant influence on Neo-Vedanta movement of the modern era.[7]
