On the cover page : Veda Vyasa author of Brahma Sutra which gives the
summary of all the four vedas.
From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vyasa
Vyasa (Devanagari: व&स, vyāsa) is a central and revered figure in the majority of Hindu traditions. He is also
known as Badarayana. He is also sometimes called Veda Vyasa (व)द व&स, veda vyāsa), (the one who split
the Vedas) or Krishna Dvaipayana (referring to his complexion and birthplace). He is accredited as the scribe
of both the Vedas, and the supplementary texts such as the Puranas. A number of Vaishnava traditions regard
him as an avatar of Vishnu.[1] Vyasa is also considered to be one of the seven Chiranjivins (long lived, or
From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brahma_sutra
The Brahma sūtras, also known as Vedānta Sūtras, constitute the Nyāya prasthāna, the logical starting point
of the Vedānta philosophy (Nyāya = logic/order). No study of Vedānta is considered complete without a close
examination of the Prasthāna Traya (Prasthanatrayi), the texts that stand as the three starting points. The
Brahma Sutras are attributed to Badarayana.
While the Upanishads (Śruti prasthāna, the starting point of revelation) and the Bhagavad-Gītā (Smriti
prasthāna, the starting point of remembered tradition) are the basic source texts of Vedānta, it is in the Brahma
sūtras that the teachings of Vedānta are set forth in a systematic and logical order.
While the earlier commentators like Adi Shankara treat Bādarāyaņa, the author of the Brahma Sūtra, as the
Jnana-Shakti Avatara (knowledge-power incarnation) of God, Vaishnavite tradition identifies him with Krishna
Dwipayana Vyāsa, the author of the Mahābhārata.
