The Vedanta Sutra and the Upanishads
Vedanta Sutra reads sacred texts as putting forward a single doctrine centering on the concept of Brahman. This Brahman-centric approach was controversial, and rejected by other Brahmanical schools. Vedantans joined Upanishads as fundamental sources of wisdom into nature of Brahman; Shankara commented on Bhagavad Gita in same way. Bharatayana thinks that even the gods can achieve liberation by knowing Brahma whereas Jaimini restricts this to humans.
