[Advaita-l] Today Bhagavan Ramanuja Jayanti too

[kuntimaddi sadananda]

PraNAms to all

Today is Bhagavan Ramanuja Jayanti too.

His Shree Bhashya on Bri Sutra has been considered a brilliant analysis where he considers Advaita doctrine in terms laghu and mahaa purvapaksha before his siddhanta. 

The emphasis on the Sharanaagati as means of moksha forms the basis of the Vishishtadvaita darshana which was later expanded by Shree Vedanta Deshika. 

Hari Om!

ON Shakara:
 
 " An exquisite thinker, a brilliant intellect, a
 personality scintillating with the vision of Truth, a heart
 throbbing with an ardent desire to serve the nation, sweetly
 emotional and relentlessly logical , in Sankara the
 Upanishads discovered the fittest spiritual general...... Be
 he in the halls of the Upanishad commentaries or in the
 temple of the Brahma Sutra expositions, in the amphitheatre
 of his Bhagvad Gita discourses or in the open flowery fields
 of his devotional songs, his was a pen that danced to the
 swing of his thoughts "
