Shiva Advaita (
Southern India that was founded by Śrīkaṇṭha Śivācārya during the eighth century.[1][2] According to this doctrine, the Shiva and the Brahman are the one and the same.[3]
Śrīkaṇṭha Śivācārya (also known as Nīlakaṇṭha Śivācārya) wrote a commentary on
Nirguna Brahman, which is central to Advaita.[5] In contrast to Śrīkaṇṭha, who considers his Brahma Sutra Bhasya Viśiṣṭādvaita (qualified non-dualism), which affirms the supremacy of Saguna Brahman, Appayya affirms a form of pure non-dualism and recasting Śrīkaṇṭha's work in an effort to establish Shiva Advaita in his Śivādvaitanirṇaya.[5]
