Although VidyaaraNya is careful to incorporate the basic positions of his teachers,he departs from the mainstream Advaita of Shankara by prescribing in addition to knowledge a further program of yogic discipline based on such texts as the Bhagavad Giitaa (BhG),the Paatañjaliiya Yogasuutras (YS),the GauDapaadiiya Kaarikaas (GK),and the Laghu-YogavaasiSTha (LYV).He integrates the structures of thought from the Shankaran Advaita and the Paatañjaliiya Yoga systems into one system bearing on the life and goal of the renouncer.
