Shankara-Bhashya On The Brahma-Sutra

Description

Buy Shankara-Bhashya On The Brahma-Sutra Second hand books, Authored by m. r. yardi, Bhandarkar Oriental Research Institute in paperback binding from Used Book Store.

This book by M. R. Yardi offers the essence of Vedanta philosophy, providing an accessible introduction to the Brahma-Sutra for the general reader. While the Upanishads and Bhagavad-Gita are widely known, the Brahma-Sutra is often perceived as a complex text reserved for scholars. The author, guided by His Holiness Dr. Kurtakoti, the former Shankaracharya of Karvir Peeth, delves into the spiritual wisdom of the Brahma-Sutra. Initially shared through articles, these contributions have been compiled into this book for broader dissemination to those seeking a higher life. The book thoughtfully explores the origins, nature, and importance of the Brahma-Sutra, discussing debates surrounding its authorship and compilation period, as well as principal commentaries and their perspectives. It highlights that the author’s name, Badarayana, appears in only a few sutras. Focusing on themes rather than individual sutras, and drawing attention to the special features of Shankara-Bhashya, the author makes the Brahma-Sutra’s message and significance more understandable. Across sixteen chapters, the book covers topics such as the path to valid knowledge, the nature of Brahman in its various forms, the relationship between the individual self and Brahman, and the integral roles of ritual worship and meditation in spiritual realization. With clear language and concise expression, it illuminates the interconnectedness of spiritual scriptures and the core tenets of Vedanta schools. Reading this book offers insight into the potent spiritual force that inspired Swami Vivekananda’s powerful pronouncements on Vedanta.
