'''Mahīdhara''' ("earth-bearing") was a 16th-century commentator of the [[Vedas]]. His treatises include the ''Mantramahodadhi'' (''[[mantra]]-uda-dhí'', "great ocean of mantras") of ca. 1588, and the ''Vedadipa'' (''veda-dīpa'', "light of the Vedas"). The latter concerns the Vajasaneyi-samhita of the [[White Yajurveda]].

Mahīdhara's namesake is a legendary mountain described in the ''[[Mahabharata]]'', which is also an [[epithet]] of [[Vishnu]].

The commentaries of "[[Sayana]]", Skanda, Venkata , '''Mahīdhara''', etc are of recent times. All of them belong to a time ''later'' than [[Yāska|Yaska]]'s. According to [[Dayananda Saraswati|Swami Dayananda]] these commentaries were '''fine'''. [[Dayananda Saraswati|Swami Dayanada]] based his commentary on the [[Brahmana]]s and the [[Nirukta]] .
