The Gaudapada-karikas is the earliest extant Advaita Vedanta text. It is only explicitly Advaita text deemed worth saving from before Shankara's time. Its philosophical doctrines makes it worthy of study in its own right and sets the stage for Shankara's slightly different Advaita. The text is presented here in a plain English translation with notes, along with a translation of the Mandukya Upanishad, and an extensive summary of Shankara's own commentary upon it. Also included are an essay on early Vedanta, who the author(s) of this text may be, and the influence of Buddhism on the text (especially that of Nagarjuna's Madhyamaka system); an account of the basic doctrines; an essay on Shankara's understanding of this text; and a philosophical critique of the doctrines. This books makes the claim intelligible that "All is consciousness, one, and unchanging" and thereby removes much of the shock of Gaudapada's Advaita Vedanta. But it also raises problems with the plausibility of the claim.

The history of the Vedanta school is well known since the time of Sankaracarya on, and its prehistory before Sankara is quite obscure. However, from the time of compilation of major Upanisads to Sankara there is a period of thousand years, and the tradition of Upanisads was not lost; there appeared many philosophers and dogmaticians, although their thoughts are not clearly known. The author has made clear the details of the pre-Sankara Vedanta philosophy, utilizing not only Sanskrit materials, but also Pali, Prakrit (Jain), as well as Tibetan and Chinese sources. In this respect this is quite a unique work. For this work the author was awarded the Imperial Prize by the Academy of Japan. Some sections of this work were already published in Indian as well as European and American journals in English. This work is a complete English translation of the entire book. The English translation was done with the financial aid by the Harvard-Yenching Institute, and the final touch was given by Mr. Trevor Leggett, the British writer, who is well-versed in Sanskrit as well as in Japanese.

Adi Shankara was an early 8th century Indian philosopher who consolidated the doctrine of Advaita Vedanta and is credited with unifying and establishing the main currents of thought in this branch of Indian philosophy.His works in Sanskrit discuss the unity of the Self and Nirguna Brahman "brahman without attributes". He wrote commentaries on the Brahma Sutra, Principal Upanishads and Bhagavad Gita) which are still authorities on the subjects and known for their erudition and lucidity. His works explain the ideas found in the Upanishads. Shankara travelled across the Indian subcontinent to propagate his philosophy through discourses and debates which he always seems to have won, hence his opponents converted to his way of thinking and the doctrine spread far and wide. It is still one that stands up to rigorous argument. This book explains the traditional prescription for enlightenment and gives guidance from beginning to end.
