Śrī Vyāsatīrtha, the scholar of Tattvavāda is held in high esteem only next to Śrī Jayatīrtha. His fundamental work has been to write detailed commentaries on the works of Śrīmad Anandatirtha and Śrī Jayatīrtha, and to show Tattvavāda as being placed on a firm logical footing. His work is considered to be of the highest significance, particularly because it is accepted even by his opponents that his understanding of their schools is second to none. Śrī Vyāsatīrtha also keeps a tempo that is hard  for the less skilled to even conceive of, let alone match. His logic is exceptionally hard to beat, because of his uncanny knack of knowing exactly what the opponent is going to say, and using this information to lead the opponent into traps of logic that are many steps deep, and impossible to work through or around. One feels that while one gropes in the dark and tries to guess where one is and struggles to find one’ s way.
