An interesting video, shared by Vishvas, features Dr. Maheswaran (a disciple of Mani Dravid Shastri) offering a critical assessment of Bellamkonda Ramaraya Kavi's interpretation of the Antaryāmi Brāhmaṇa. Maheswaran argues that Bellamkonda's exegesis deviates from established Advaita siddhānta. While acknowledging Bellamkonda Ramaraya Kavi's literary prowess and contributions, Maheswaran contends that his commentary does not fully align with traditional Advaita sampradāya hermeneutics


Just the first 10 minutes of this video give a clear view.

Such interpretive deviations likely account for why scholars representing alternative Vedāntic traditions do not place Bellamkonda Ramaraya Kavi's compositions on par with definitive Advaitic works like the Advaita-siddhi and other foundational texts of comparable stature within the sampradāya.

Best Regards,
