Vedas on Consciousness

The activity of the Brain is Mind,(Science)

Activity of the ind is Intellect, activity of the Intellect is Chitta(Indian Philosophy).

Mind is like a CPU , it receives sensations /Data.

No factual or judgemental pronunciations are made.

The Judgemental portion or the factual certification is made by Buddhi(Intellect).

How does Buddhi pass judgements or values to an even or sensations.

It is by the directions of the Chitta, Consciousness.

Consciousness in an attribute of Reality.

It is the Subject in the process of Cognition.

Then Shankaracharya dates back to between 4300-4000 BC!

But the Bhakti Literature mentions Gnana Sambhanda around 7 Century AD when Tirunavukkasar is mentioned as a contemporary of Sambanda.

This is supported by to other evidence in Tamil.

So Shankaracharya' date may be after 7 Century AD.

Now to the view that Shankaracharya did not establish the four Mutts.
