[V Subrahmanian]

Namaste

There was a furore in the YouTube over (Ramanuja) Sri Chinna Jeer's recent
remarks about Shankaracharya and the establishing of Amnāya Peeṭhams. Here
is a video discussion where Vidwan Sri Lalitaditya Gannavaram of Sringeri
answers questions related to 'Was Adishankara a great Vaishnava?' in
Telugu.

For the benefit of those who can't follow Telugu, an English summary and an
English translation of the content of the video generated by AI is also
presented here.

useful one:
