| | Vedanta Sutra and the Vedanta by Dr. Subhash C. Sharma |
 | | For Badarayana the Veda is eternal and the sastra (scriptural knowledge) is the great authority. | | | Badarayana indicates in the Sutra that active service and renunciation of the world get equal support from the scriptures, and finds himself inclined towards the combining of the spirit of renunciation with strenuous life. | | | Badarayana affirms a monistic view of the world. |

| | Salutations to Sri Vyasa, the Avatara of Vishnu, the wise Badarayana and Sri Krishna Dwaipayana. | | | Sri Vyasa (Badarayana or Krishna Dwaipayana), the Guru of Jaimini, is the author of the Brahma Sutras otherwise known as the Vedanta Sutras. | | | Vedas consist of three portions viz., the Karma-Kanda which deals with sacrifices or ceremonial rites, the Upasana-Kanda which treats of Upasana (worship) and the Jnana-Kanda which deals with knowledge of Brahman. |

| | Brahma Sutras |
| | As such, it is clear that the Brahma-sUtra was written at a time when the six schools in general, and vedAnta in particular, were already widely known, and discourse among their scholars had already developed to a very great degree. | | | Considering that the two are seen in the mImAmsa-sUtra and the Brahma-sUtra to have apparently conflicting opinions in some cases, it would seem that Jaimini may have been an independent mImAmsaka scholar before meeting BAdarAyaNa; he presumably lost to the latter in debate and became his student, as was the common practice of the day. | | | Even a biography of shaMkara written long after him seems to symbolize and recognize the difficulty with his approach, by stating that he had argued with BAdarAyaNa and defeated him. |

| | Self As Knower in Vishisthadvaita |
| | Sage Badarayana, in Aphorism 11 of Pada ii of Chapter I of his Brahma Sutras refers to this verse of the Katha Upanishad and says that the two selves referred to are the individual self (Jivatma) and Brahman (Paramatma). | | | This verse is referred in Aphorism 7 of the third Pada of chapter I of the Brahma Sutras of Sage Badarayana. | | | Of the two selves the one that transmigrates is limited by adjuncts and is fit to follow either the path of knowledge or that of Karma according as it seeks liberation or worldly prosperity. |

| | Brahma - Sutras |
| | Badarayana shows that the Vedantic texts harmoniously teach Brahman as the plenary Reality, the world-ground which is of the nature of Existence-Consciousness-Bliss, which is the supreme object of meditation, and which is the final goal to be realised. | | | In the first chapter which is on Harmony (Samanvaya), Badarayana teaches that the Vedantic texts, taken as a whole, have as their purport Brahman, the non-dual Reality. | | | They hold that God is only the efficient cause who fashions the world out of extraneous matter which is co-eternal with God. |

| | Primarily associated with the Upanishads and their commentary by Badarayana, the Vedanta Sutras, Vedanta thought, according to the pre-Shankaran Buddhist sources (Aryadeva, Kamalashila, Bhavya) monotheistic, later split into three groups, initiated by the thinking and writing of Adi Sankara. | | | The Uttara ("later") Mimamsa school is perhaps one of the cornerstone movements of Hinduism and certainly was responsible for a new wave of philosophical and meditative enquiry, renewal and revival of Hinduism, and established strong philosophical foundation. | | | Most Hindu thought today in some way relates to changes affected by Vedantic thought, which focused on unity of all God. |

| | Relation to the "Mimamsa-sutras" (from Indian philosophy) -- Britannica Concise Encyclopedia - The online ... |
| | Badarayana approves of the Mimamsa view that the relation between words and their significations is eternal. | | | Just as the Mimamsa-sutra traditions of Badari's tradition were revived by Prabhakara, a 7th–8th-century scholar, and Jaimini's defended by Sabara and Kumarila, a 7th–8th-century scholar, Baharayana's sutras laid the basis for the development of Vedanta philosophy. | | | Often, Jaimini's interpretation is contrasted with that of Badari; in such cases, Badarayana sometimes supports Badari's view and sometimes regards both as defensible. |
