1 Birth of Adi Sankara Adi Sankaracharya was born in the year 805 (AD) and is regarded as one of the greatest philosophers, mystic and poet of all times. His parents were Shivaguru and Shivataarakaa (also known as Aryamba). Sankaracharya's father died at an early age and he was brought up by his mother.
2 Birth place of great saint Kalady is the birth place of Adi Sankaracharya the great Indian Philosopher 2 shrines in memory of Sankaracharya - one for Dakshinamoorthy and the other for the Goddes Sharada. Kalady, 45 Kms from Cochin The Sri Ramakrishna Adwaitha Ashram is located here. Kaladi is connected to Kochi by road. Distance: 45 KM via Aluva in Kerala
3 Adi Sankara Adi Sankara (788 CE CE), also known as Śaṅkara Bhagavatpādācārya and Ādi Śaṅkarācārya, was an Indian philosopher who consolidated the doctrine of Advaita Vedanta, the most influential sub-school of Vedanta. His teachings are based on the unity of the soul and Brahman, in which Brahman is viewed as without attributes.
4 Adi Sankara's and his Philosophy His works in Sanskrit, all of which are extant today, concern themselves with establishing the doctrine of Advaita (Non- dualism). He also established the importance of monastic life as sanctioned in the Upanishads and Brahma Sutra, in a time when the Mimamsa school established strict ritualism and ridiculed monasticism.
5 Contribution to Hindu In this short span of life he travelled the four corners of the Indian subcontinent and established the four most revered places of worship which are thriving even today. Philosophy
6 Bhajagovindam enlightens the realities on Life and Death In 33 simple, sweet and lucid Slokas, giving easy and homely analogies and illustrations for easy understanding, Sri Sankaracharya dissects the human psyche by explaining the fallacy and futility of the human life, if one does not take shelter under Dharma or Truth or God.
7 Bhajagovindam recited by Enlightened Souls Worship Govinda, worship Govinda, worship Govinda, Oh fool! Other than chanting the Lord's names, there is no other way to cross the life's ocean.
8 Adi Sankaracharya Teachings The philosophy and teachings of Adi Sankaracharya were based on the Advaita Vedanta. He preached 'Non-Dualism'. It means that each and every person has a divine existence, which can be identified with the Supreme God.
9 In short span of life guides masses of Humanity In a short life-span of thirty-two years, Sankaracharya travelled all over India, establishing monasteries, reforming worship procedures in temples, writing philosophical treatises, debating with leaders of other religious traditions and instructing students who flocked to him for spiritual guidance.
10 Jeevatma Unites with Paramatma Advaita Vedanta considers the consciousness of the Self- Jeevatma - as continuous with and indistinguishable from the consciousness of the Supreme or Brahman- Paramatma.
11 Attains Maha Samadhi Sankaracharya attained Maha Samadhi at the age of 32 in the year 837 AD.
12 Adi Sankara Traditions are Immortal Adi Shankara founded four Maṭhas to guide the Hindu religion. These are at Sringeri in Karnataka in the south, Dwaraka in Gujarat in the west, Puri in Orissa in the east, and Jyotirmath (Joshimath) in Uttarakhand in the north.
