| '''Yadava Prakaasa''' was an [[Advaita]] scholar and a contemporary of [[Vaishnava]] Acharya [[Ramanuja]].<ref>{{cite book|title=Ramanuja and Schleiermacher: Toward a Constructive Comparative Theology|author=Jon Paul Sydnor|publisher=Casemate Publishers, 2012 - Religion - 238 pages|page=21}}</ref> He was one of the teachers of Ramanuja during the latter's early years in [[Kanchi]]. It is said that Ramanuja joined Yadava Prakaasa's school while he was only sixteen years old.<ref>{{cite book|title=The Divine Body in History: A Comparative Study of the Symbolism of Time and Embodiment in St. Augustine and Ramanuja|author=Ankur Barua|publisher=Peter Lang, 2009 - Religion - 253 pages|page=17}}</ref>

| However severe differences rose between them early on, over the interpretation of several [[Vedic]] texts and scriptures of [[Hinduism]] like [[Chandogya Upanishad]]. This eventually led Ramanuja to break away from Yadava Prakaasa and expound his own school of thought known as [[Vishishtadvaita]].<ref>{{cite book|title=Sri Ramanuja|author=Madabhushini Narasimhacharya|publisher=Sahitya Akademi, 2004 - Hindu saints - 51 pages|pages=18–19}}</ref>

| When Ramanuja was a student under Yadava Prakasa, the latter grew jealous of Ramanuja's rise to fame. So Yadava Prakasa tried to get rid of Ramanuja during a tour to the [[Ganges]] in north India. Govinda, Ramanuja's cousin came to know of this sinister plot and warned Ramanuja who then left the group and escaped to Kanchi with the help of an elderly hunter couple. Later Yadava Prakasa realised his folly and became a disciple under Ramanuja.<ref name=vaishnavam>{{cite web|url=http://srivaishnavam.com/ramanuja_lifehistory.htm|title=Ramanuja's Life History|website=SriVaishnavam}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.iskcontimes.com/archive/yadava-prakasha-plots-kill-ramanuja|title=Yadava Prakasa plots to kill Ramanuja|website=Iskcon Times}}</ref>
