[Advaita-l] Works of Sri Vidyashankara

[Venkatesh Murthy]

 Namaste

Sorry but you are forgetting one point. Kanchi Mutt has done Huge
amount of good work for Vedic education and Sringeri is lagging in
this area.

Why should we bother about who is saying who was where and when and
how? Let them say Adi Sankara was in 500 BC and ruled in Kanchi and
Sringeri saying 8th Century AD and he vanished in Himalayas.

We can't have quarrels like Uttaradi and Mantralaya Mutt about where
is Moola Raama. We are Advaitis and for us these matters are Maayaa
only.
