• C. Shankaracharya
• D. Gautam

Hint:

Vedanta Philosophy emphasizes the unity of the individual soul (Atman) and the universal reality (Brahman), forming the basis of much of Indian spiritual thought.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

The originator of Vedanta Philosophy is Badarayan, also known as Vyasa. He is credited with composing the Brahma Sutras (Vedanta Sutras), which systematize the philosophical teachings of the Upanishads. Vedanta, meaning ”end of the Vedas,” focuses on the ultimate nature of reality (Brahman) and the liberation of the soul (Moksha). While Shankaracharya later provided significant interpretations, the foundational text was authored by Badarayan.
