TEXT 89

'gopāla-bhaṭṭācārya' nāma tāṅra choṭa-bhāi
kāśīte vedānta paḍi' gelā tāṅra ṭhāñi


SYNONYMS

gopāla-bhaṭṭācārya—Gopāla Bhaṭṭācārya; nāma—named; tāṅra—his; choṭa-bhāi—younger brother; kāśīte—at Benares; vedānta paḍi'-studying Vedānta philosophy; gelā—went; tāṅra ṭhāñi—to his place.


TRANSLATION

Bhagavān Ācārya's brother, whose name was Gopāla Bhaṭṭācārya, had studied Vedānta philosophy at Benares and had then returned to Bhagavān Ācārya's home.


PURPORT

During those days and also at the present, Vedānta philosophy is understood through the commentary of Śaṅkarācārya, which is known as Śārīraka-bhāṣya. Thus it appears that Gopāla Bhaṭṭācārya the younger brother of Bhagavān Ācārya, had studied Vedānta according to the way of the Śārīraka-bhāṣya, which expounds the Māyāvāda philosophy of the impersonalists.
