There have been earlier commentaries on the Veda like Ve峁卥a峁璦 M膩dhava鈥檚 峁歡arthad墨pika written during the time of the early Chola king Par膩ntaka, but S膩yana鈥檚 has ever remained the most popular.
痴颈诲测腻谤补峁噛补 will long be remembered as the greatest pontiff at 艢峁涐箙geri of the seat of 艢a峁卥ara who established his monasteries in different places in India with his order of several monks to propagate Advaita that he so lovingly taught in his short span of life of thirty-two years

Vedanta (啶掂啶︵ぞ啶ㄠ啶�, ved膩nta) refers to a school of orthodox Hindu philosophy (astika), drawing its subject-matter from the Upanishads. There are a number of sub-schools of Vedanta, however all of them expound on the basic teaching of the ultimate reality (brahman) and liberation (moksha) of the individual soul (atman).

The author of the treatise should be identified with M膩dhava-S膩ya峁嘺, or with Bharat墨t墨rtha, or with Cinnambha峁弓a? (Thakur 1961).
