The history of Buddhist thought evinces two types of following of the Buddha, one philosophical and the other theological. Theologically, his followers form two camps known as Hinayana and Mahāyāna, each having many sects and subsects. Philosophically, Buddhist thought in India has four broad divisions, namely, Vaibhāṣika, Sauträntika, Madhyamika, and Yogacara. Nārāyaṇa Bhatta in Manameyodaya cryptically summarizes the basic thrust of each of these four schools as follows:
Mukhyo Madhyamiko vivartamakhilam sunyasya mene jagat, Yogacara mate tu santi matayah tasam vivarto' khilah Artho' sti kṣaniko tvasavaruumito kathyeti Sautrantiko. Pratyakşam ksana bhan guram ca sakalam Vaibhasiko bhāṣate.
Mukhyo Madhyamiko vivartamakhilam sunyasya mene jagat, Yogacara mate tu santi matayah tasam vivarto' khilah Artho' sti kṣaniko tvasavaruumito kathyeti Sautrantiko. Pratyakşam ksana bhan guram ca sakalam Vaibhasiko bhāṣate.
