Note: Mani wrote that sankaracharya vehemently condemns vrittikaara's views. Dr. N.S. Anantha rangachar feels that this vrittikaara is not the same as the the vrittikaara (bodhayana - which ramanuja follows). apparently it is clear the Shankaracharya never mentions anything about bodhayana vritti on bramhasutras. It cannot be said that shankaracharya never considered the theistic advaita as a possible explanation. however he never refers to anything from bodhayana vritti. and yes it is clear that Sri Ramanujacharya follows bodhayana vritti which was supposed to be very voluminous work which was even extent at vedantadesika's time according to some, since he refers to it in adhikarana saravali. krishna
