Guest guest Posted October 3, 2004 Report Share Posted October 3, 2004 [Moderator's note: West is dwAraka and not kedarnath as mentioned by the author. Details of the 4 AmnAya maTha-s can be found in AmnAya stotram. Please see http://www.escribe.com/religion/advaita/search.html?query=AmnAya for the details of the stotram and a translation] dear rangan ji, aadi shankara established four aamnaaya mathas in the four directions, and they are: badrinath - north ; kedarnath - west, puri - east , and , shringeri - south. it would follow from this that the kanchi math constitutes one of the large number of sankara maths in the south coming under the dakshina aamnaya math , which is shringeri sharada peetham. kaanchi followers, however , claim that acharya shankara, after founding the four aamnaya maths, himself settled down at kaanchi. the controversy is never going to be resolved! with regards, a.v.krshnan. ________________ _________ALL-NEW Messenger - all new features - even more fun! http://uk.messenger.
