Review
The Brahma s tras, also known as Ved nta S tras, constitute the Ny ya prasth na, the logical starting point of the Ved nta philosophy (Ny ya = logic/order). No study of Ved nta is considered complete without a close examination of the Prasth na Traya (Prasthanatrayi), the texts that stand as the three starting points. The Brahma Sutras are attributed to Badarayana. While the Upanishads ( ruti prasth na, the starting point of revelation) and the Bhagavad-G t (Smriti prasth na, the starting point of remembered tradition) are the basic source texts of Ved nta, it is in the Brahma s tras that the teachings of Ved nta are set forth in a systematic and logical order. While the earlier commentators like Adi Shankara treat B dar ya a, the author of the Brahma S tra, as the Jnana-Shakti Avatara (knowledge-power incarnation) of God, Vaishnavite tradition identifies him with Krishna Dwipayana Vy sa, the author of the Mah bh rata. The book gives word-to word meaning. --Wikipedia

Product Description
The Brahma Sutra is the third of the canonical texts and is regarded as the Nyaya-prasthana, because it sets forth the teachings of Vedanta in a logical order.The work is known by other names including Vedanta-sutra, Sariraka-sutra, and Bhiksu-sutra.The Brahma Sutra Bhasya is an important but difficult Vedanta scripture. This is our most popular translation, and is regarded by some as indispensable for all students of Vedanta.Includes word for word meaning of each aphorism under its Sanskrit text, followed by a running translation, with additional words in brackets for clarification.Translation based primarily on the Ratnaprabha.

Product Description
The Purva Mimamsa sutras of Jaimini can be said to give a synthetic view of the science of rituals as propounded in the Karmakanda portion of the Veda. The Brahma sutra or the Uttara Muimamsa sutra of Badrayana does the same in connection with the teaching of the Jnana Kanda portion, or the Upanisads. The Brahma sutra of Badarayana has four chapters and each of these adhyayas is divided into four padas. Each pada is divided into adhikaranas comprised of sutras, varying in number. The number of sutras in each adhikarana depends on the nature of the topic dealt with in that adhikarna. Each adhikarna according to the commentators, takes up for consideration a visaya vakya. Contents : Introduction Adhyaya 1 Adhyaya II
