Vivekachudamani

Absolutely amazing. Soul opener.

Worth the price

Thought provoking in vedantic philosophy, especially about the 5 sheaths i.e., koshas

Swami Chinmayananda needs no endorsement. In this book, he has given, as usual, a simple to understand commentary on the Vivekchudamani. Adisankaracharya himself has tried to explain things in simple terms, but Swamiji, by first providing the translation of each of the slokas, and then giving a commentary on them, which are enriched by easy to understand examples, makes the task of the reader easy. But, in my view, you do need a bit of basic awareness, if not necessarily the understanding of various Vedantic concepts, to have a better appreciation. In my humble opinion, a study of Drig Drishya Vivek, followed by Aparokshanubhuti, would help you to appreciate this better.

This book by Swami Chinmayanand is for understanding very minute nuances of the text written by Adi Shankaracharya.

I know Chinamya publications are a pitch above the rest. But this rendering of the Vivekachudamani is really very good. Revered Swamiji has poured his heart into it. It is a must read for those who intend to go deep into the basics of Vedanta.

Good

It includes the Sanskrit and the commentary by Swamiji is invaluable. Such a deep approach and modern view, completely practical and applicable to anyone living a normal social life.

To think that a 30 year old around 2,000 years back had such insights is truly amazing.It is a long treatise on Advaitha - with a lot of repetitions of the One message - but something truly enjoyable.For those who do not know Sanskrit - like me it should be motivation enough to learn the language as I could feel the brilliant poetry at work by Adi Sankara

This book changed my life.. I figured out who I am.. Best studied with a guru or someone who has experience in the subject, but you can launch yourself ahead and just start reading and see what happens to.. If you really want to know who you are, and read this with an open mind, it will change your life :) <3
