वेदान्त पारिजात सौरभ (भगवद् निम्बार्काचार्य - द्वैताद्वैत वेदान्त ब्रह्मसूत्र भाष्य सटीक)

266 VEDĀNTA-KAUSTUBHA [SŪ. 1. 4. 28. ADH. 8.] Bhāskara closely follows Śaṁkara. He too finishes with the refutation of the Sāṁkhya doctrine in adhikaraṇa 3, takes the inter- vening three adhikaraṇas as concerned with the general concordance of texts, but takes the last two adhikaraṇas as referring to the Sāṁkhya doctrine. Śrīkaṇṭha is the most consistent of all. He finishes with the refutation of the Sāṁkhya doctrine in adhikaraṇa 3, once for all, and directs the remaining adhikaraṇas to other topics. Résumé The fourth section of the first chapter consists of:—

1. 28 sūtras and 8 adhikaraṇas, according to Nimbārka.
2. 28 sūtras and 8 adhikaraṇas, according to Śaṁkara.
3. 29 sūtras and 8 adhikaraṇas, according to Rāmānuja.
4. 27 sūtras and 8 adhikaraṇas, according to Bhāskara.
5. 29 sūtras and 8 adhikaraṇas, according to Śrīkaṇṭha 6 28 sūtras and 8 adhikaraṇas, according to Baladeva. Rāmānuja and Śrīkaṇṭha split sūtra 26 in Nimbārka-bhāṣya into two separate sūtras, while Bhāskara takes the sūtras 17 and 18 in Nimbārka-bhāṣya as one sūtra.
