Sankara is the author of the Brahmasutrabhasya, the most important text of the school known as Advaita-Vedanta. Sankara teaches of the self by dialogues between a winning exponent and a losing opponent. Up to this day, Sankara's teaching has been invariably identified with the exponent's doctrines. In this book a distinction between the invisible authon and his alleged exponent is offered. Sankara the author is a new intellectual hero different from his exponent. Thus, due to the aforementioned distinction, a new philosophy and theory of freedom emerges, the teaching of Sankara, the author distinguished from his apparent exponent.Jerusalem Studies in Religion and Culture12.Hindu philosophyElectronic books.Hindu philosophy.181.482181/.482Grinshpon Yohanan1948-893503MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910461278803321The secret Sankara1996007UNINA
