Brahma Sutras systematizes the philosophy of the Upanishads in 555 aphorisms. In this book the original aphorisms are given in Devanagari followed by word-for-word English rendering, and the interpretation of the sutra according to Shankaracharya. The introduction contains a comparative study of the bhashyas of Shankara, Ramanuja, and Nimbarka.
Be not afraid, for all great power throughout the history of humanity has been with the people. From out of their ranks have come all the greatest geniuses of the world, and history can only repeat itself. Be not afraid of anything. You will do marvelous work.
-Swami Vivekananda
