What's interesting, at very least as history, is that it appears Advaita Vedanta--both that of Shankara and his paramguru Gaudapada owe a lot to Buddhism. Tell me, where can you find you find the concept of "maya" in any of the main Upanishads, Bhagavad-gita or the Badarayana sutras? You can't. Gaudapada and Shankara are both dependent on Nagarjuna's teaching of maya in Madhyamika.
