Advaita Sharada Project Second Release

February 2, 2017

Jagadguru Shankaracharya Sri Sri Bharati Tirtha Mahasannidhanam released the second version of the Advaita Sharada Project of the Sringeri Math on February 2, 2017 as part of the ongoing Sharadalaya Swarna Shikhara Kumbhabhisheka Celebrations.

The project being undertaken by the Sri Shankara Advaita Research Centre of the Math in association with M/s Sriranga Digital Software Technologies, Mysore, was originally made live on the internet during the Shankara Jayanti 2014 Celebrations and contained the Prasthana-traya Bhashyam-s of Sri Adi Shankara Bhagavatpada as searchable and hyperlinked text.

Being executed under the guidance and direction of Sri Mahasannidhanam and Sri Sannidhanam, the Advaita Sharada Project has now introduced for the first-ever time an elegant interface for featuring sub-commentaries or Vyakhyana-s.

The revamped second release features Vyakhyana-s (Ratnaprabha and Sri Padmapadacharya’s Panchapadika) to the Brahma Sutra Bhashyam and to the Gita Bhashyam. Sri Sureshwaracharya’s Vartikas on the Taittireeya Upanishad Bhashyam are also part of this release.

Other texts include the 14th century work pertaining to the Brahma Sutras namely “Vaiyasika Nyaya Mala” of the 11th Acharya of the Peetham (Jagadguru Sri Bharati Tirtha I), Sri Totakacharya’s Shruti-Saara-Samuddharanam and Sri Hastamalakacharya’s Hastamalakeeyam (along with the commentary by Sri Adi Shankaracharya).

A sub-commentary on Panchapadika titled Vaktavya Kashika, written by Sri Uttamajna Yati, a Sannyasi disciple of Jagadguru Sri Jnanottamacharya, the 5th Acharya of the Peetham has also been included.

Prakaranas of Bhagavatpada such as Vivekachoodamani, Sarva-Vedanta-Siddhanta-Saara-Sangraha and Shatashloki are also featured. More texts, sub-commentaries and features will be added in the subsequent months.

The contents may be accessed at the Project’s website that has been blessed with the Srimukham of Sri Mahasannidhanam.

  • The Self (Atma) is never born nor does It ever die; neither does It cease to exist after having once existed nor does the Self come into existence, like the body, having not existed before. Unborn, eternal, It undergoes no change whatsoever and is primeval; It is not destroyed when the body is destroyed. Bhagavan Sri Krishna on Significance of God
  • A person who hears about the condemnation of another incurs sin. What need be said about the sin incurred by a man who actually engages in nit picking? Jagadguru Sri Adi Shankara Bhagavatpada on Prabodha Sudhakara
  • If you pray with faith and devotion, the Lord will certainly listen to your earnest prayers. Jagadguru Sri Chandrashekhara Bharati Mahaswamigal on Significance of God
  • Our nation and its culture have a hoary past and we should all be proud of it. Mere aping of the West is not beneficial for us. For example, care of aged parents is something that has come down to us traditionally and we must never neglect this duty by imbibing concepts of some free societies, wherein concern for one’s own parents is at low ebb. Jagadguru Sri Abhinava Vidyatirtha Mahaswamigal on Significance of God
  • It is a great blunder not to make proper use of the body and mind that has been given to us by God. Jagadguru Sri Bharati Tirtha Mahaswamigal on Significance of God's Names
