Religious Landscape Of India During Shankara’s Time

One of the richest sources of information from the life of Acharya Shankara is the religious landscape of the land of Bharat. While we typically associate the Acharya with the rejuvenation of Upanishadic wisdom, his contribution to streamlining and resurrecting the religious fabric of Bharat is Himalayan. While my upcoming book ‘Sankarayanam – The journey of Sankara’ delves deeper into this topic, the ‘Weekend with wisdom’ session of INDICA Moksha intends to offer a glimpse into this.
