People who study Vedanta are under the delusion and conclude that they declare:~ "I-Am-Brahman", but they fail to realize the fact that Brahman is everywhere and in everything!
The existence of Brahman is not limited to his physical identity because it is the very essence of form, time, and space.
Yoga Vasistha:~ "Teachers, interpretations of sacred texts, the force of religious merit--none of these lead to the realization of that Ultimate Truth which is revealed in the clear reflection of the heart, engendered from contact with the good."
Sage Sankara: ~ VC Let erudite scholars quote all the Scripture, let Gods be invoked through sacrifices, let elaborate rituals be performed, let personal Gods be propitiated---yet, without the realization of one‘s identity With the Self, there shall be no liberation for the individual, not even in the lifetimes of a hundred Brahmas put together (verses-6)
Sage Sankara said:~ Talk as much philosophy as you like, worship as many Gods as you please, observe ceremonies, and sing devotional hymns, but liberation will never come, even after a hundred aeons, without realizing the Oneness.
The ‘I’ is the ignorance. Till one holds the Self 'I', it is impossible to acquire Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.
Thus, the seeker has to get rid of ignorance, which is present in the form of ‘I’, to realize the ultimate truth or Brahman. :~Santthosh Kumaar
