Sri Adi Shankara Bhagavatpada & His Teachings:
Chapter 1 - Birth and History of Sri Adi Shankara Bhagavatpada (Kannada):
"In our land, Bharata, many great souls have taken birth. They all came for the welfare of the world. Among such great souls, Sri Adi Shankara Bhagavatpadacharya is the foremost.
Sri Adi Shankara incarnated about 1200 years ago in our land. His incarnation took place in Kerala, South India, in the "agrahara" of Kalady on the banks of the holy river Purna. His parents were Shivaguru and Aryamba. The couple had no children for a long time. The couple ardently prayed to and worshipped Lord Parameshwara for progeny. As a result of their service to Lord
Parameshwara, He Himself incarnated as their son. They named Him Shankara.
During their period, many non-Vedic doctrines were prevalent in our land. Each of these doctrines were opposed to our Sanatana Vaidika Dharma. People did not have proper knowledge of Vedanta. Each one started speaking in their own manner. There was a general unrest amongst the people. It was as if there was no place for duties ordained by the Vedas. A situation had risen where the tenets of the Upanishads were not known to anyone. There was an air of confusion and indecisiveness. In such a state of affairs, when the Devatas prayed to Lord Parameshwara, The Lord, responding to their prayers, incarnated as the son of Shivaguru and Aryamba.
In childhood itself, Sri Shankaracharya acquired the knowledge of all languages and scripts. His Upanayana took place at a very early age. He completed the Adhyanana (study) of all the Vedas, and acquired great proficiency in all the Shastras. He took up Sanyasa at the age of eight itself. Endowed with complete renunciation, He accepted Sanyasa from Mahatma Govinda Bhagavatpada who was residing on the banks of the holy river Narmada. At His behest, Sri Shankara traveled the length and breadth of the country. He made the masses aware of the tenets of Sanatana Dharma. He enlightened them with the Vedanta Tattva.
Vedanta means the final portions of the Vedas. We call them the Upanishads. The Atma Tattva has been propounded in the Upanishads. This Atma Tattva has also been expounded by the Lord in Bhagavad Gita. Bhagavan Veda Vyasa Maharishi compiled Brahmasutras that elucidate the Atma Tattva. The Upanishads, Bhagavad Gita and Brahmasutras -- these three go by the name "Prasthanatraya". In all these three, the non-dual Atma Tattva alone is propounded. The same (Atma Tattva) has been explained by Sri Shankaracharya in His commentaries.
Sri Shankaracharya wrote excellent commentaries on the Prasthanatraya. He attained fame as "Bhashyakara Sri Shankaracharya". Today if we wish to understand the correct import of Vedanta we must study Sri Shankaracharya's commentaries on the Prasthanatraya. The Tattva expounded by Sri Shankaracharya in His commentaries on the Prasthanatraya, have been subsequently extensively elaborated by many great personages such as Sri Vidyaranya, Sri Appaya Dikshita.
Thus, Sri Adi Shankaracharya Bhagavatpada is the great Acharya who conveyed to the masses the correct import of Vedanta Tattva. If He had not incarnated then, we would not have had the correct knowledge of Vedanta Tattva today. If we are in a position to understand the Vedanta Tattva today, it is a result of the incarnation of Sri Shankaracharya.
Hence, every follower of Sanatana Dharma should have the utmost faith and devotion towards Sri Shankaracharya. We will know about the tenets taught by Sri Shankaracharya subsequently (in the following discourses.)"

Respected Shankaracharya, you said shrimad adisankaracharya was born in 8-th century but it is not true because now we are using Gergian and julious calender so called english era calender, but if we count based on Vikram sambhat and yudhisthir sambhat then it perfectly predicting the age of Mahabharat and birth of Krishna. Based on Vikram sambhat and yudhisthir sambhat the birth of adisankaracharya was about 3-century B.C. In 8-th century there was another shankaracharya but he was not adisankaracharya. It was historians who have no exact knowledge and they said the 8-century shankaracharya was adisankaracharya. I am a former student of IIT Roorkee and i did some research on aadiguru shankaracharya and through my mind and body i consider aadiguru is my spiritual master. I request you to let tells the devotees of sanatan philosophy that aadishankaracharya was born in 3-century B.C., being seating in highest Post of sanatan philosophy you are the guidence of this great nation cultures and let people know the truth through you. Namastuvyam brahmarshi.

जगद्गुरु शंकराचार्य भगवान् को प्रणाम्। जगद्गुरु शंकराचार्य भगवान् पुरी पीठाधीश्वर श्री निश्चलानंद सरस्वती जी महाराज ने बताया कि शिवावतार आदि शंकराचार्य भगवान् का अवतरण दिवस 507 ईसा पूर्व (BC) है। लेकिन श्रृङ्गेरी के शंकराचार्य महाराज 1200 ईस्वी(AD) बता रहे हैं। अङ्ग्रेजों की कूटनीति के कारण आदि शंकराचार्य भगवान् के अवतरण दिवस को 1200 ईसवी बताया जाता है।

[@nagendrakr5004]

See wiki Adi Shankaracharya belongs to 8th century Which is approximately 1200 years back
