Ramanujacharya (1017–1137 CE) was a Hindu philosopher and theologian who is considered one of the most important figures in the Sri Vaishnava tradition. He is best known for his commentary on the Brahma Sutras, known as the Sri Bhashya.

The Sri Bhashya is a comprehensive and systematic exposition of the Brahma Sutras, one of the most important texts of Hindu philosophy.
