Sāyaṇa

Sāyaṇa (d. 1387) was the brother of Mādhava. The relation and identity between Sāyaṇa, Mādhava, and Vidyāraṇya are a subject of scholarly debate. Sāyaṇa was a minister at the court of Harihara I and Bukka I of Vijayanagara. Several Sanskrit commentaries on Vedic texts have been attributed to Sāyaṇa.
