Summary

Manuscript used for consultation and study and is a Hindu philosophical treatise, critical gloss, and super-commentary addressing the early Mīmāṃsā view of the embodied Self, as presented in the Śārīrakamīmāṃsābhāṣya by Śaṇkarācārya. Śaṇkarācārya's work is itself a commentary on the ancient Brahmasūtra. The commentary is written from the perspective of the Advaita (non-dualism) Vedānta school of philosophy.
