The Vivekachudamani of Sri Sankaracharya is a classic text of Advaita Vedanta, one of the six orthodox schools of Hindu philosophy. This book, translated by Swami Madhavananda, is a comprehensive commentary on the original Sanskrit text, which is a dialogue between a student and his teacher, exploring the nature of reality and the path to liberation.The book is divided into 580 verses, each of which is explained in detail by Swami Madhavananda. The verses cover a wide range of topics, including the nature of the self, the illusion of the world, the role of the guru, and the various stages of spiritual practice. The commentary is written in a clear and accessible style, making it suitable for both scholars and general readers.Throughout the book, Sri Sankaracharya emphasizes the importance of discrimination (viveka) in spiritual practice, which involves distinguishing between the eternal and the temporary, the real and the unreal. He also emphasizes the role of devotion (bhakti) in the path to liberation, which involves surrendering to a personal deity or guru.Overall, the Vivekachudamani of Sri Sankaracharya is a profound and inspiring work of philosophy and spirituality, offering a timeless message of wisdom and guidance for seekers of all backgrounds and traditions.This is a new release of the original 1926 edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
