"He who is the Brahman of the Vedantins,
Ishvara of the Naiyayikas,
Purusha of the Sankhyas,
cause of the Mimamsakas,
law of the Buddhists,
absolute zero of the Atheists, and
love infinite unto those that love,
may [He] take us all under His merciful protection":
Udayanacharya -- a great philosopher of the Nyaya or Dualistic school.
And this is the Benediction pronounced at the very beginning of his wonderful book Kusumanjali (A handful of flowers),
in which he attempts to establish the existence of a personal creator and moral ruler of infinite love independently of revelation.
- Swami Vivekananda,
in a Letter to Prof. John H Wright
