Written work
Commentary on the Bṛhadāraṇyaka Upaniṣad
बृहदारण्यकोपनिषद्भाष्य (Bṛhadāraṇyakopaniṣadbhāṣya)
The longest of his Upaniṣad commentaries, on the oldest and longest Upaniṣad. It comments on the dialogues of Yājñavalkya —the teaching to Maitreyī, the "not this, not this" (neti neti)— and the saying "I am brahman" (aham brahmāsmi). It contains some of his most precise discussions of ignorance, action and renunciation.

Authorship note
Authentic according to Hacker and Mayeda; his disciple Sureśvara devoted a vast verse sub-commentary (Vārttika) to it.
