Sri Bhasya app for iPhone and iPad

The Sri Bhasya is the most famous work of Sri Ramanuja, (1017–1137). It is his commentary on Sri Badarayanas Vedanta Sutra. It was completed when he was around a hundred years old (citation required).

In his commentary, Ramanuja presents the fundamental philosophical principles of Visistadvaita based on his interpretation of the Upanisads, Bhagavad-gita and other smrti texts, the previous acaryas, and of course the Vedanta-sutra itself.

This is done by way of refuting Sankaras Advaita Vedanta and in particular his theory of maya. In his Sri-bhasya he describes the three categories of reality (tattvas): God, soul and matter, which have been used by the later Vaisnava theologians including Madhva.

The principles of bhakti as a means to liberation (moksha) were also developed. Rāmānuja wrote the Vedānta-Dīpa and Vedānta-Sāra to aid in the overall understanding of the Sri Bhasya.

Ramanuja refers to a commentary on Brahma Sutra by Bodhāyana in the opening verse of his commentary, stating that his views are in accordance with previous masters like Bodhāyana.
