| Apr 23 at 3:19 | comment | added | Viṣṇu _Deva _Śrī. | Plainly speaking, the Bhāgavata Purāṇa, as the source of quotations for the works of Śaṅkara and Gauḍapāḍa, has not been conclusively proved, as the Bhāgavata Purāṇa can be said to be the borrower from Gauḍapāda or both might have quoted from a different common source. It is for this reason that the 2 verses common to Māṭhara Vṛtti and Bhāgavata Purāṇa 1.8.52 and 1.6.35 are not taken as a conclusive evidence, for fixing the date of the Bhāgavata Purāṇa. | |
| Apr 23 at 3:19 | comment | added | Viṣṇu _Deva _Śrī. | Attempts have been made to shift the date earlier still by referring to Gauḍapāda’s Bhāṣya on the Uttara Gītā where he mentions the Bhāgavata Purāṇa, and quotes Bhāgavata Purāṇa 10.14.4. But this Gauḍapāda is supposed to be a later author of the same name as that of Śaṅkara’s spiritual grand-sire. On the contrary, it can be argued that the Bhāgavata Purāṇa borrowed words and ideas from the Māṇḍūkya Kārikās of Gauḍapāda. | |
| Apr 23 at 3:15 | comment | added | Viṣṇu _Deva _Śrī. | In giving a list of heretical texts (mithyā śruta i.e. non- Jaina literature), the Nandī Sūtra gives the following list of works and authors (standing for their works): Bhārata (Mahābhārata), Rāmāyaṇa, Kauṭalīya (Artha Śāstra), Kanaka-Sattari (Īśvara Kṛṣṇa’s Sāṅkhya Kārikās), Vaiśeṣika, Buddha-Vācanā, Kāpālika, Lokāyata, Ṣaṣṭi Tantra, Māṭhara, Purāṇa Bhāgavata, Patañjali etc. | |
| Apr 23 at 3:15 | comment | added | Viṣṇu _Deva _Śrī. | Yes thats true man. We have, however, an independent source of a definite date which can be regarded as the lowest limit of the date of the Bhāgavata Purāṇa The Nandī Sūtra, a work of the Śvetambara Jaina canon, was composed by Devardhi Gaṇi, the president of the finalredaction (Vācanā) of the Śvetāmbara Jaina Canon, held at Valabhī (Saurāṣṭra) in 980 or 993 after Vīra i.e. 453-466 A.D. or 512-525 A.D., as the History and Culture of the Indian People Vol. III, p. 415, takes it. | |
| Apr 23 at 3:12 | comment | added | user34398 | No, not really. The jaina text mentions Bhagavata as a text of Vaishnavas so it is talking of the Krishna Bhagavata. Btw how do we know there are two Gaudapadas? | |
| Apr 23 at 3:04 | comment | added | Viṣṇu _Deva _Śrī. | That Gaudapada is said to be different Gaudapada not the guru of Adi Shankaracharya. Some say both have just borrowed words from the same source. As for jaina text it mostly just mentions the name Bhagawata Purana which can also mean Devi Purana. So, it's just a heresay and nothing less. But the fact of the matter is Ramanuja never ever mentioned it. Now, as i have already mentioned in my answer a believer should follow his beliefs with devotion. Tbh for everyone that view should be more than enough. I guess we are done. Goodbye. Tc.. | |
| Apr 23 at 1:19 | comment | added | user34398 | Tbh the view of bhagavata being post ramanuja has been refuted as it is quoted by Gaudapada , the param guru of adi shankara in his uttara gita bhasya. Not to mention a Jaina text of about 4th to 5th century mentions the vishnu bhagavatam too. | |
