Description

“Sankara is not an individual. Sankara is an institution. No single person could ever have achieved what he had achieved in his short span of life. No Master or Prophet had ever achieved so much, for so many, in so short a time. Very often this tempts us to consider that Sankara was an Avatara.”

Sankara work represents the total turnover of a highly competent person, working intensively every hour of the day, under conditions of the highest mental and intellectual efficiency. Yogis invoke this total capacity, lying dormant in everyone.
