Sanskrit commentaries on the Prasthānatrayī
Rambhadracharya composed Sanskrit commentaries titled Śrīrāghavakṛpābhāṣyam on the Prasthanatrayi – Brahma Sutra, the Bhagavad Gita, and eleven Upanishads. These commentaries were released on 10 April 1998 by the then Prime Minister of India, Atal Behari Vajpayee.[2][21] Rambhadracharya composed Śrīrāghavakṛpābhāṣyam on Narada Bhakti Sutra in 1991. He thus revived—after five hundred years—the tradition of Sanskrit commentaries on the Prasthanatrayi. He also gave the Ramananda Sampradaya its second commentary on Prasthanatrayi in Sanskrit, the first being the Ānandabhāṣyam, composed by Ramananda himself.[22][23] Rambhadracharya's commentary in Sanskrit on the Prasthanatrayi was the first written in almost 600 years.[22]

Critical edition of Ramcharitmanas
Rambhadracharya's most controversial work was the critical edition of the Ramcharitmanas, which was published as the Tulsi Peeth edition.[24] He was accused of tampering with the epic,[24][25] but the dispute died down after Rambhadracharya expressed his regret for any annoyance or pain caused by the publication.[26] A writ petition was also filed against him but it was dismissed.[1] This edition was published in 2005 by Shri Tulsi Peeth Seva Nyas.[2][11]
