Some time ago, External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj expressed a view that Gita should be declared the “National Scripture” of India. Now, the government is contemplating to declare Adi Shankaracharya as the country’s “National Philosopher”. If media reports are to be believed then the Union government is mulling over designating the great philosopher’s birthday on May 11 as “National Philosopher’s Day”.

Sri Sankara is the pioneer of Advaita Vedanta! He traveled from Kanyakumari to Kashmir to spread our religion! He deserves this belated recognition! Let us not create a fight!

The facade of Ramanuja by MuKa was just a ploy to get NB Hindu votes! He is now busy sharpening his anti sanskrit sword & has asked Tamils to beat the (dead) language with a whip so that it is thrust out of TN!

So is he planning to change his name?

Karunanidhi is a pure Sanskrit name.

But Ramanuja went around the Vishnu Concept in terms of of Digvijaya.

So its like Subramanya going around the world and Ganesha going around Shiva-Parvati.

So who is the rightful recipient of the Jnaana Phalam in this case?
