Richard King's Early Advaita Vedanta and Buddhism: The Mahayana Context of the Gaudapadiya-karika, published by State University of New York Press in 1995, is a peer reviewed academic monograph examining the Mahayana Buddhist influences on an early and foundational Advaita Vedanta text. Its authority rests on standard university press review and King's specialist standing in comparative Indian philosophy. Its central argument, that early Advaita drew more on Buddhist thought than later Advaita tradition has generally acknowledged, remains a position within an active and still debated area of Indology rather than an uncontested consensus.
