Sri Madhvacarya Sri Madhvacarya (1239-1319) was a Vaishnava (devotee of Vishnu) and devoted himself to defeating the impersonal philosophy. He taught that there is the Supreme Lord, the individual souls, and the material world. He taught that the individual souls are superior to matter and are distinct from the Lord and are His servitors. He also taught that each person molds his own karma,
and that by serving the Supreme Lord one can eliminate karma and return
to his position of serving the Lord in the eternal spiritual world. Madhvacarya went to the Himalayas to meet Srila Vyasadeva. Vyasadeva gave him a shalagram-shila called Astamurti and approved his Bhagavad-gita commentary.
