Aadi Shankaracharya - Life and Works | Dr Sucheta Paranjpe | Indic Studies Toronto

Aadi Shankara needs no introduction - a philosopher par excellence, he travelled all over India to help restore the study of the Vedas. His ingenuity, logic and knowledge of the Vedanta tradition of Sanatana Dharma made Advaita the most important tradition for millennia to come. This talk presents an overview of the life and works of the great Guru.
About the Speaker: Dr. Sucheta Paranjpe is a retired Professor of Sanskrit, an associate Faculty at Leipzig University, Germany and visiting Faculty at Macalester College, St. Paul. She continues to be a passionate student of Vedic studies, particularly the Mahabharat.

Despite being a Vedic Scholar, Her views about Tantra is limited to Panchmakara and full of prejudices. Tantra is hudge ocean. Awakening Kundalini is also Tantra Practice. Adi Shankaracharya indeed was against Vamachara in the name of spirituality. But he was proponent of Shri Vidya too., which is दक्षिणमार्गी (Samayamargi ) Tantra. In every peeth, You would see Shree Yantra with Chandramoulishwar ShivLinga. In Jyotirmath, You would see idols of 64 yoginis.
'Soundarya Lahari' is regarded as Tantric Text and has great importance in Shri Vidya upasana.

One request for video makers Indic Toronto : can you please mention the names of books Shrimati Suchetaji mentioned in this video in the details of video or in comments section .please 🙏🌷

[@sunilpg9089]

🙏if you say thantric is atheists
Then how they worshiped shiva and devi

[@mystictilopa2812]

The meanings of atheism in the Indian context are different. One meaning is If you don't believe in Vedic philosophy you are an atheist.

[@pranav_chalotra]

Tantra is hudge ocean. Adi Shankara was proponent of Shri Vidya. 'Soundarya Lahari' written by him is of great importantance in Tantra.

आप के येक विडिओ मे आप ने कहे हो की ऋग्वेद मे विष्णू का उल्लेख नही हे, और वेद यांनी वैदिक परंपरा विष्णू को भाव नही देती l फिर श्री गुरू शंकराचार्य ने बद्रीनाथ मे विष्णूमूर्ती की फिर से स्थापना कीव की l इतनी बडी गलती जानबझ कर की या फिर कोई प्रयोजन था आने वाले भविष्य को वेदोनसें हटाकर पुराणो मे उलझाने के लिये l
