Sankara, one of the greatest philosophers of India, dedicated his brief and intense life (788-820) to reestablish the authority of the ruti, to codify the Advaita Vedanta, the doctrine of Non-duality, and to anchor the Metaphysical Tradition of the Veda through the foundation of monasteries and monastic orders.
Autorenporträt
SANKARA is regarded as one of the pre-eminent philosophical minds in the history of India. He realized the most perfect synthesis and harmonization of the entirety of Indian philosophical thought. His "method" for the research of Truth, which consisted primarily in liberating it from the veils that cover it, has given a contribution of great value to the metaphysical philosophical thought of the entire world. Sankara is considered from many perspectives a philosopher, a mystic, an exegete of the Sruti, a founder of monastic orders (mathas), an Avatara (Siva's incarnation). But above all, he is to be considered as the supreme Instructor (Acarya) who was able to indicate the true and supreme end of human existence, based on Knowledge, and which constitutes the very end of the Upanisad: the recognition of our own real nature and liberation (moksa) from samsara-becoming.
