Namaste;

 

I couldn't locate any Sub-commentary on Sahnkara on Gita but the

following is the only one available and it is on Brahma Suutra.

Sri Subhanu Saxena a great advaitin scholar has in one of his

postings at the Advaita-L postings has explained about the Sub-

commentary of Sankara Bhashya written by Swami Satchidanandera

Saraswati. This work is not a sub-commentary on Sankara Bhasya on

Gita but on Brahma Suutra. Those interested may access the following

links – the first one specifically on the above referenced posting.

The second link is a detailed compilation of Sri Subhanu's advaita-

related postings at advaita-L list. Sri Subhanu articulates his

points well and I strongly recommend the interested members to read

his works.

Namaste Br. Vinayaka -ji,

 

This may not directly answer your question but the Gita Supersite

has available o-line a large number of well-known commentaries on

the Gita with the original Sanskrit text.

 

I believe one of the last 2 commentaries on the list, either Sri

Neelkanth or Sri Dhanpati is a sub-commentary/gloss on the Shankara

Bhasya. will try and confirm in the next day or so.

 

regards

Sundar Rajan

Srigurubhyo NamaH

Namaste,

 

Sri Sundar Rajan's reference is correct. The above two are sub-

commentaries. The former, although Advaitic cannot be said to be

totally based on The Acharya's commentary. But the latter, called as

it is: Bhaashyotkarsha-dIpikA, is a gloss bringing out the greatness

of the Acharya's Bhashya. Both of them are in Sanskrit and i do not

think an English/Kannada (which would help Br.Vinayaka ji)

Translation of these are ever made.

 

To my understanding, the Kannada translation of the Acharya's Bhashya

(complete sentence-by-sentence translation with foot notes) is that

of Sri Sachidanandeshwara Saraswati SwaminaH of Holenarasipur is a

good one. Perhaps the only authentic Shankara bhashya in Kannada.

It is a publication of Adhyatma Prakasha Karyalaya, Bangalore, and

Holenarasipur. I do not know if Swami Adidevananda or some other

Swami has translated the Bhashya in Kannada from the Ramakrishna

Order. Kindly check.

Namaste,

Kindly read the name of the Author as ' Sri Sachidanandendra Saraswati

Swaminah'. The error is regretted.

Sri Subhanu Saxena a great advaitin scholar has in one of his

postings at the Advaita-L postings has explained about the Sub-

commentary of Sankara Bhashya written by Swami Satchidanandera

Saraswati. This work is not a sub-commentary on Sankara Bhasya on

Gita but on Brahma Suutra.

 

praNAms

Hare Krishna

 

As far as I know, Sri SatchidAnandEndra Saraswati swamiji has not written

any sub-commentary on any of the shankara bhAshya...but he has translated

shankara's prasthAna traya bhAshya into Kannada language (with an

elaborated footnotes)...Apart from this he has written some independent

works in Kannada, English, sAnskrit like..adhyAsa bhAshyArtha vimarshe,

sugama, shuddha shankara prakriya bhAskara, vEdAnta mImAmsa sArasarvasva,

vEdArtha sArasaNgraha etc.etc. based on shankara's vEdAnta sUtra bhAshya.

 

Hari Hari Hari Bol!!!

bhaskar

I am aware of a half completed sub-commentary from his pen on the Bhashya on the 13th Chapter alone. He just wrote it for the first and second slokhas..

 

 

Thanks & Regards,

Venkat.

 

Sadgurubhyo Namah.
