Brahmasūtra is the basic text for all Vedānta. When these
Vedānta sūtras were composed cannot be told definitely because
of the lapse of a long time; however, since it is known as having
been written by Maharṣi Bādarāyaṇa Vyāsa, the period of its
writing may be at the end of Dvāpara Yuga and the beginning
of Kaliyuga; thus, it can be inferred that its time should be
about 5000 years ago. Brahmasūtra was composed in very
early times according to our forefathers. But, as per the present-
day Westerners' opinion, this should have been composed
around 400 B.C. According to our legends, as per the story in
the first Skandha of Śrīmad Bhāgavata, it is learnt that these
sūtras should have been composed little earlier than Śrīmad
Bhāgavata. In Śrīmad Bhāgavata, Bhagavān Śrī Kṛṣṇa 's sports
are described; and Bhagavān Śrī Kṛṣṇa was on this earth some
5000 years before. Therefore, the period of Brahmasūtras
composed by Veda Vyāsa also should have been the same.
Even in Śrīmad Bhagavadgītā, in the śloka ‘brahmasūtra-
padaisćaiva’ we come across mention of Brahmasūtra by name;
from this it is clear that these sūtras" period of composition
should have been earlier than Śrīmad Bhagavadgītā.
In the Brahmasūtra, the number of sūtras are differently
stated by the different Bhāṣyakāras; chief among them are-
