Jaimini's guru was Badarayana, who founded the Vedanta school of Hindu philosophy. He is also credited with authoring the Brahma Sutras. Both Badarayana and Jaimini quoted each other as they analyzed each other's theories. Badarayana emphasises knowledge, while Jaimini emphasises rituals. They sometimes agree with each other, sometimes disagree, and often present antithesis to each other.
