One of the outstanding works of this period is the Advaita-brahmasiddhi of Sadānanda Kāśmiraka. He might have existed during the early part of the eighteenth century. This work is written in an easy and simple style. He gives an excellent summary of all the most important Vedāntic doctrines in the different schools of Advaita.
