Adi Shankara or Shankaracharya as most refer to this great philosopher sage lived well over thousand years ago.In the thirty two years that he lived he achieved more than many would do in many life times.Post Budhism and Jainism,Shankara single handed-ly resurrected a battered Hindu religion. Bhaja Govondam,history says arose from Shankara's dismay at seeing an old man memorising Sanskrit Grammar rules.In his inimatable and unique style Shankara tells him to stop.Remember the Lord's name instead says the master. Bhaja Govindam has many of the Hindu cherished value systems bare of their sophisticated facade.In the process.Shankara shatters one's delusions that condition our life.The author in this book tries to simplify it in line with modern life.
