The Wikipedia article entitled "Buddhist influences on Advaita Vedanta " states: > A few Buddhist scholars made the opposite criticism in the medieval > era toward their Buddhist opponents. In the sixth century AD, for > example, the Mahayana Buddhist scholar Bhaviveka redefined Vedantic > concepts to show how they fit into Madhyamaka concepts, and "equate[d] > the Buddha's Dharma body with Brahman, the ultimate reality of the > Upanishads. My question is this an accurate description of the teachings of Bhaviveka? Did he redefine Vedantic concepts to fit a Buddhist view? I want people knowledgeable on this subject to answer.
