तत्त्वबोधः - वेदान्तशास्त्र-प्रवेश-ग्रन्थः
Tattvabodha - A Primer to Vedanta
This course is on Tattvabodha, a text ascribed to Shankaracharya, which is a condensed and structured version of the teachings contained in Vedanta Bhaga (final portion of the Vedas). Tattvabodha is a fundamental and preparatory text to be studied before any scriptural text like Gita, Upanishads etc. This text is also in simple Sanskrit and so helps 1st and 2nd level Sanskrit students to get a feel of the basic concepts of Vedanta by following a proper text.
