“The knower of Brahman reaches the Supreme:” this is to express in an aphoristic form the whole teaching of the Second Book (Ānanda-Vallī). Now the following verse (ṛch) is quoted (i) with a view to determine the nature of Brahman—who, as has been indicated in the words “the knower of Brahman reaches the Supreme,” is the Thing to be known, but whose characteristic nature has not been stated definitely—by way of giving a definition which will set forth His characteristic nature as distinguished from all else; (2) with a view that Brahman, of whom it has been but vaguely said that He should be known, may be more definitely known, ī. *c*., in order that we may know that Brahman, as defined below, is the *same as our own Inner Self (Pratyagātman) and no other;* and (3) with a view to shew that the fruit of Brahmavidyā declared above in the words “the knower of Brahman reaches the Supreme” consists in attaining to the state of the Universal Being (Sarvātma-bhāva, *lit.,* all-Self-ness), in being Brahman Himself who is beyond all attributes of samsāra. तदेषाऽभ्युक्ता ।* सत्यं ज्ञानमनन्तं ब्रह्म ॥ २ ॥* tadeṣā'bhyuktā |* satyaṃ jñānamanantaṃ brahma *|| 2 || 2. On that, this has been chanted: *“Real, Consciousness, Infinite is Brahman;....”* As referring to what is taught in the foregoing Brāhmaṇa text, the following verse (ṛch) is chanted: “Real, Consciousness, Infinite is Brahman;...”
For a clear understanding of what has been taught in the foregoing aphoristic statement, this sacred verse is cited. That is to say, the whole meaning of the aphorism is clearly explained in the verse. In the foregoing aphoristic expression, the śruti speaks of the “knower of Brahman.” Now, one will be inclined to ask what Brahman is. Accordingly, the śruti describes the nature of Brahman in the four words “Real, Consciousness, Infinite (is) Brahman.” ( taitriya KYV) 2 The three terms is in you; one who is seeking all outside, does not know , what is within; once that is tracked, the whole is tracked. TO UNDERSTAND THE GOD, OE HAS TO UNDERSTAND ONESELF. WHEN THE ELEPHANT IS SEEN BUT NOT THE WOOD (TIRUMULAR) ALL IS WELL. TILL THEN EARTH AND OTHER CHATUR BHUTAS WILL TAKE CARE OF THEMSELVES.
