Description
Résumé:The aim of this short article is to introduce a topical text called the Dásásloki of Ādi Śaṃkara, widely known as Śaṃkara (the systematic propounder of Advaita Vedānta, ca. eighth-century CE) and its only available commentary the Siddhāntabindu by Madhusūdana Sarasvatī (ca. sixteenth-century CE, generally said to have hailed from Bengal). While these two classics delineate in a nutshell the basic tenets of Advaita Vedānta philosophy and are placed with great significance in the tradition, very little work on them, particularly those based on textual study, has been done in modern scholarship. Thus, the article, without going into much detail of the content of these two works (i.e. the Dásásloki and the Siddhāntabindu) and the commentaries available (on the Siddhāntabindu), gives, in brief, their introduction, in order to revisit them.
