Tattvabindu ( Devanagari: तत्त्वबिंदु ) is an independent treatise of the Indian philosopher Vachaspati Mishra on Sanskrit grammar, which focuses on Mīmāṃsā theories of sentence meaning. In Tattvabindu Vachaspati Mishra developed the principles of hermeneutics, and discusses the "theory of meaning" for the Mimamsa school of Indian Philosophy. It is an influential work attempting to resolve some of the interpretive controversies over classical Sanskrit texts.
