Vallabha Acharya
Vallabhacharya (1479–1531 CE) was a devotional philosopher, who founded the Pushti sect in India, following the philosophy of Shuddha advaita (Pure Non-dualism).
Vallabhacharya accepted the 'Acharya' designation of Vishnuswami Sampraday (Rudra Sampraday) upon request of Bilvamangala Acharya, the last Vishnuswami Sampraday acharya before Vallabhacharya. This was after Vallabhacharya won the famous debate of Brahmavada over Shankaras in the courtyard of the Emperor Krishna Deva Raya of Vijayanagara Empire — the prosperous South Indian Empire. Apart from being the acharya of Vishnuswami Sampradaya, Vallabhacharya also propagated the Pushtimarga upon the god Krishna's order and thus became the acharya of not only Vishnuswami Sampradaya but also Pushti Sampradaya.
He is the Acharya and Guru within the Vaishnava traditions as promulgated and prescribed by the Vedanta philosophy. He is associated with Vishnuswami, a prominent Acharya of Rudra Sampradaya out of the four Vaishnava Sampradayas.

En Route To The Unified Field Theory
by: FlopI'd like to stay and introduce myself to you
And all your friends who tell you what you do is good
I fall down laughing as they offer you their gratitude
For making them believe the things you do
(chorus)
I feel so tired and I'm leery that the time
You spend with me is of design
I come to see you live your life out on parade
As if your will is so benign
I say goodbye and through the doorway
I will leave you to the key to all the happiness you find
You fill my resevoir with shame
And resignation to banality that fills your little mind
(chorus)
Mercury baby, airless and waiting
Revolving at a high velocity
Proud to be much closer to the sun
Shine your light on everyone
The answer is waiting and soon I'll be fading
Albert would be proud if he could see
