writes about the book
The author of this book has deftly avoided getting into the
waters of controversy regarding dates and times found in the other biographies.
She has based her work on Madhava Vidyaranya’s Shankara Digvijaya and has
presented to us a fascinatingly cogent story of this great phenomenon.
It is an authentic account of Shankara’s life and works and
will be counted among the finest monographs on the subject.
The author does not just dryly narrate the course of events;
she richly stuffs the events with concepts and ideas that keep evoking the
reader’s choicest feelings. The
Upanishads, the Brahma Sutras, Bhagavad Gita, Shankara’s mesmerizing compositions, his treatises, his stotras, the gods and goddesses
of the Vedic pantheon, quotes of other saints and thinkers all intersperse the
description of events.
