Shankaracharya Jayanti 2023: Adi Shankaracharya Jayanti is celebrated as the birthday of the legendary Indian sage and philosopher Adi Shankara. He was believed to be a theologian from the eighth century. He is regarded as one of Sanatana Dharma’s most essential remembrances. Jayanti is also known as Jagathguru, Adi Shankaracharya, and Bhagavatpada Acharya (the Guru at the feet of the Lord). He exemplified the Advaita Vedanta doctrine, which had a significant influence on the evolution of Hinduism. He also spoke about Vedic knowledge.
Adi Shankaracharya jayantis are celebrated on Panchami Tithi during Shukla Paksha of Vaishakha month and green occurs between April and May in the following year, the Shankaracharya jayanti date would be April 25, 2023.
His parents were quite elderly and had devoted their lives to serving the needy and doing religious work. The death of Shankara’s father at an early age delayed the beginning of his academic career. At a young age, Shankara demonstrated an interest in leading an ascetic lifestyle. However, due to his mother’s censure, he only began living as a heretic at a later age after obtaining her permission. There is a narrative about how he convinced his spouse to allow him to live an ascetic lifestyle.
When he was eight years old, he accompanied his mother to a river. While bathing, a crocodile grabbed his limb. While his leg was still in the crocodile’s mouth, he called his mother and asked for permission to become a hermit. Shankara’s mother eventually granted him permission after recognising his devotion to this endeavour, and he was subsequently set free. He abandoned his home and travelled to a Saivite sanctuary along a river in north-central India, where he became Govinda Bhagavatpada’s disciple.
Shankaracharya is believed to have vanished without a trace in the Himalayas while strolling behind the Kedarnath temple. Therefore, it is believed that he perished at the age of 32 in 820 CE
