Sumati, Pātrasvāmī, Śrīdatta and Kumāranandin were such prominent philosophers of the 74 and 8th centuries, whose works are mentioned by Buddhist and Jaina logicians, but the works have not yet been found. Sumati and Pātrasvāmī were renowned philosophers whose names are referred by the Buddhist logician śāntarakṣita (8th century) in his work Tattvasamgraha. Pātrasvāmī's Trilakṣaṇakadarthana was a famous trastise in which the hetulakṣaṇa of Buddhist philosophy was refuted vehemently. Vidyānanda mentioned in Tattvārthaślokavārttīka about Jalpanirņaya the work of Śrīdatta and in Pramāņa parīkņā, he mentioned Vādanyāya, the work of Kumāranandin.
In the eighth century Haribhadra Sūri (700 - 770), an original thinker and profound philosopher, authored several works. His famous philosophical works are Anekāntajayapatākā, Šāstrāvārtā samuccaya and Saddarśana śamuccaya. Commentary of Gunaratnasūri is famous on Şaddarśana- samuccaya - and commentary of Yaśovijaya (17th century) is also renowned on Šāstrāvārta samuccaya.
