Schrader in his catalogue of the Sanskrit MSS. in the Adyar Library,
1908, notices an Upanishad called Mahamayopanishad, ascribed to
Sankara himself, which deals with the special qualities of the four
maths. Each is described as possessing one Veda, one Mahavakyam, etc.
The second part deals with the three ideal maths, Sumeru, Paramatman
and Sastrathajnana.]

[Footnote 520: There is some reason to suppose that the Math of
Sringeri was founded on the site of a Buddhist monastery. See _Journal
of Mythic Society_, Bangalore, 1916, p. 151.]

[Footnote 522: The old folk-lore of Bengal gives a picture of Siva,
the peasant's god, which is neither Vedic nor Dravidian. See Dinesh
Chandra Sen, _Bengali Lang. and Lit._ pp. 68 ff. and 239 ff.]

said to be written in a Dravidian language with an admixture not of
Sanskrit but of Pali words. See _Arch. Survey India_, 1911-12, Part I.

[Footnote 534: Thus the catechism of the Saiva religion by Sabhapati
Mudaliyar (transl. Foulkes, 1863) after stating emphatically that the
world is created also says that the soul and the world are both
eternal. Also just as in the Bhagavad-gita the ideas of the Vedanta
and Sankhya are incongruously combined, so in the Tiruvacagam (_e.g._
Pope's edition, pp. 49 and 138) Siva is occasionally pantheized. He is
the body and the soul, existence and non-existence, the false and the
true, the bond and the release.]
