Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The Brahma Sutras by the Sage Badarayana is one of the key texts in the study of Vedanta. It systematises and harmonises the ideas expressed in several Upanishads. The text criticizes the concept of dualism of the Samkhya philosophy, and instead advocates the concept of non-dualist Brahman as the Ultimate Reality or Truth. It describes the nature of the self (Atman), and the knowledge which is essential for achieving the Liberation (moksha) in one's life. The Brahma Sutras consist of 555 aphorisms or sutras, divided in four chapters (adhyayas), with each chapter divided into four parts (padas). Each part (pada) is further subdivided into sections called Adhikaranas. Each Adhikarana is associated with one or more sutras. Although the Brahma Sutras are said to be unambiguous, comprehensive, and irrefutable, they are nonetheless subject to different interpretations including those by Sankaracharya, Ramanujacharya, Nimbarkacharya, Vallabhacharya, and Madhvacharya. The Brahma sutras echo the essence of Vedas. These aspects are described in my book, comprising of 3 Parts and 19 Chapters, along with the English translation and commentary on each sutra.
