Sri Dakshinamurty Stotram is one of the shortest and the most inspired works of Sri Adi Sankara which is known for it’s philosophical import,subtlety of expression and confident assertion.With unerring dexterity the master addresses these stanzas to the students who have already fully studied the Sastra to reach new heights in the seats of their meditation. In the revised edition,diacritical marks are used for transliteration of samskrta words in verses and commentary.Non-English words have been italicised.This will help readers to identify and pronounce the words correctly. The English plural sign ‘s’ has been added to untranslated samskrta words after a hyphen (-) to show that it is not elemental to the words e.g,mantra-s,Veda-s,Rsi-s etc., A key to the transliteration and pronounciation has been added in the beginning of the book.

About Author
Adi Shankara (Malayalam: , Sanskrit: , IAST: di a kara, pronounced [a d i a k r ]) (788 CE - 821 CE?), also known as a kara Bhagavatp d c rya and di a kar c rya, was an Indian philosopher who consolidated the doctrine of Advaita Vedanta, a sub-school of Vedanta. His teachings are based on the unity of the soul and Brahman, in other words non-dual Brahman, in which Brahman is viewed as without attributes. He hailed from Kalady of present day Kerala. Shankara travelled across India and other parts of South Asia to propagate his philosophy through discourses and debates with other thinkers. He founded four mathas ("monasteries"), which helped in the historical development, revival and spread of Advaita Vedanta. Adi Shankara is believed to be the organizer of the Dashanami monastic order and the founder of the Shanmata tradition of worship. His works in Sanskrit, all of which are extant today, concern themselves with establishing the doctrine of Advaita (Nondualism). 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. Shankara represented his works as elaborating on ideas found in the Upanishads, and he wrote copious commentaries on the Vedic Canon (Brahma Sutra, Principal Upanishads and Bhagavadgita) in support of his thesis. The main opponent in his work is the Mimamsa school of thought, though he also offers some arguments against the views of some other schools like Samkhya and certain schools of Buddhism that he was partly familiar with.
