Why Is Prabhākara Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Prabhākara was an Indian philosopher-grammarian in the Mīmāṃsā tradition of Kerala. Probable date Hariswamin's commentary on Shatapatha Brahmana which dates to 638 CE discusses the doctrine of Prabhākara's followers. Prabhākara in his book Bṛhati quotes only Bhartṛhari and Bharavi . Thus his probable time can be assigned to the latter half of the 6th century.
