List of writings by Sri Adi Shankaracharya
As we observe the birth anniversary of Bhagavaan Sri Adi Shankaracharya, The Hindu Media Guyana (THMG) shares a list of the literary, devotional and philosophical works of the Shankara.
A list of all the works by Shri Adi Shankaracharya is given below. Even today many scholars wonder how was it possible for Acharya to write so much in a very short lifespan of 32 years. It depicts that he was the greatest scholar and a man on a mission to teach and establish the philosophy of Advaita. Though the majority of his works concentrate on Advaita, he equally pitches on bhakti since he believed that bhakti was a very essential step for Chitta Shuddhi without which Self-realisation was not possible. Hence he composed verses and hymns in praise of every lord, the majority of which were concentrated on Vishnu, Shiva, and Shakthi. He wanted the people to worship the lord in any form of their wish, the results of which must finally purify their mind and make it fit for self-realisation. From his life history, it is evident that he was blessed by Lord Narasimha, Goddess Saraswati, and Lord Vishvanatha. Hence one can find a true Vaishnava, Shaiva and Shaakta in him. The most highlighting factor is the baashya for Hastamalakeeyam written by Shri Shankaracharya since rarely a Guru has written baashya for the work of his own disciple. Below is the list of works by Shri Adi Shankaracharya which are widely accepted to be his works.
