This booklet – though small in size, has profound, lofty, unalloyed teachings of Adi Sankara – was the product of relentless and long-drawn research carried out over a period over 70 years by Sri Sri Satchidanandendra Saraswati Swamiji, of hallowed memory.

As a result of a process of decadence and degeneration in the caliber of the preceptors and their teachings in the post Sankara era, many an alien and doctrinaire tenet, totally opposed to the traditional methodology propounded and propagated by the most ancient line of teachers like Veda Vyasa, Gaudapada, Sankara and Surewara, have come into vogue even in the highest Vedantic circles. Here is a sincere and sagacious attempt to cleanse all the accretions or dross that Sankara’s Vedanta has gathered over a millenium now and present Sankar Vedanta in its pristine pure glory. It is hoped that this booklet will shake up many scholars and seekers alike from their slumber and stimulate them to go in for great works in Sanskrit like ‘Vedanta Prakriya-Pratyabhijna’, ‘Mandukya Rahasya Vivriti’ etc. as also English works alike ‘How to Recognize the Method of Vedanta’, Intuition of Reality’ etc. by the Rev Swamiji.
