Adi Shankaracharya, or Adi Shankara, or the first Shankara, was a great Vedic guru, philosopher, and teacher.

So, each of them proposes theories and dates for Shankaracharya’s birth. Some of the proposed dates are: • According to the records from the Adi Shankaracharya’s four cardinal peethams, these four institutes were established on various dates like Dvaraka Pitham (491 BCE), Jyotirmatha Pitham (485 BCE). Moreover, the books like Shankara Satpatha and others provide information regarding his birth’s astronomical data, highlighting 509 BCE as his birth date.

The 'Philosophical' Birth of a Philosopher In the south Indian state of Kerala there once lived a learned Nambudiri brahmin couple. Even though this pious duo enjoyed all the blessings of life - fertile fields, abundant milch cows, plentiful wealth, well-built mansions and hosts of loving relatives - all this failed to give joy to them for the simple reason that even after many years of conjugal bliss, they were still not blessed with a symbol of their affection - an offspring.

That she carried within herself an exceptional foetus was evident and is glorifyingly described in the traditional biographies: "as her pregnancy advanced, her whole body became lustrou...
