AdiShankracharya, the father figure of Sanyas-Parampara!

Pointing out the causes of the downfall of the country in face of foreign invasion, Ramdhari Singh Dinkar says-'One gets weakened first, defeat follows then.
The spirit of organisation of the country got shattered first, the reign of slavery took the hold of it later. Steeped with low loyalties of caste and sect, as the sense of political-social oneness among the people went to pieces and left through the windows, the freedom was inevitably to leave through the main gate.’ (Sanskrutikechaaradhyeyaye)
However there were many who took the weakness of social-segregation as one of the main problems of the country. And they did what they could for its eradication as well. And one of the most prominent among them was AdiShankaracharya, whose ‘Statue of Oneness’ is unveiled last year in Omkareshwar, Madhya Pradesh.
