(George) 1848 1914 Thibaut, George Frederick William Sankaracarya The Vedanta-Sutras with the Commentary by Sankaracarya Sacred Books of the East, Volume 1 Produced by Srinivasan Sriram, David King, and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team "The Vedanta-Sutras with the Commentary by Sankaracarya" translated by George Thibaut is a philosophical text written in the late 19th century. This work consists of an essential compilation of the Vedanta teachings, accompanied by the authoritative commentary from Sankaracarya, a pivotal figure in Indian philosophy. It addresses fundamental concepts regarding the nature of reality, Brahman, and the self, presenting a deep inquiry into the relationship between individual souls and the absolute. The opening of this text outlines the significance of various Brahmanical works that must accompany the understanding of the Vedas, particularly focusing on the systems of Mimamsa—specifically the Purva and Uttara Mimamsa—that systematize Vedic knowledge. It sets the stage for discussing how the Vedanta-Sutras provide a coherent interpretation of the Upanishads, which explore profound philosophical teachings related to Brahman. The introduction emphasizes the necessity of commentary for comprehending these texts, hinting at the depth and complexity of Sankaracarya's philosophical discourse that will unfold in the following chapters.
