Raghunatha's analysis of relations revealed the true nature of number, inseparable from the abstraction of natural phenomena, and his studies of [[metaphysics]] dealt with the [[negation]] or [[nonexistence]] of a complex [[reality]]. His most famous work in logic was the [[Tattvachintamanididhiti|{{IAST |Tattvacintāmaṇidīdhiti}}]], a commentary on the ''[[Tattvacintāmaṇi]]'' of [[Gangesha|{{IAST |Gangeśa Upādhyāya}}]], founder of the ''{{IAST |Navya Nyāya}}'' school.
