It should be noted that Bhoktrutva bhava is explained only when atleast two entities (dvaita) exists. Thus Nyaya siddhanta also accepts Bahupurushavada indirectly  <blockquote>तत्राऽऽत्मा सर्वस्य द्रष्टा, सर्वस्य भोक्ता, सर्वज्ञः, सर्वानुभवकः । तस्य भोगाऽऽयतनं शरीरम् । भोगसाधनानीन्द्रियाणि । <ref>Pt.
