Manduka Upanishads: ~ A Gnani bears no external mark. Neither nudity nor the religious robe has anything to do with him.

A Gnani continues to drive the point the Source with the fervor of one that knows and with the talent of expression.  

Only a Gnani who has directly known truly understands the Truth and can have the perseverance and passion to share it.

Gnani, Gnana, and the world in which we exist are one in essence.   All states are illusory because there is no division in consciousness. The Soul is the fullness of consciousness.

The experience of the birth, life and death, and the world are a reality within the waking experience, but the waking experience is the dualistic illusion.  Thus, whatever experienced as a child, youth and old age is false. 

Whatever appears as a form is false. Whatever has a name is false.  Whatever appears and disappears is a falsehood. People who live in the appeared universe are bound to be false because the universe appears as a waking or dream and disappears as deep sleep. All the three states are a falsehood.  

Whatever is permanent is a reality, whatever impermanent falsehood is.  Thus, the three states which appear and disappear are a falsehood.

Remember:~

All the contents of the universe are false.  Thus, whatever is born, lives and dies within the universe is a falsehood. The individual experiences are a reality within the falsehood.

The gold, silver, diamonds have their value within the falsehood.  All the attachments burden and bondage experienced as a reality within the falsehood.  

Religion and its idea of God are based on the false entity within the falsehood.  Love and hate are a reality within the falsehood.  The universe and all its contents are an illusory reality.

Perfect understanding of ‘what is what’ through deeper thinking and reasoning helps to acquire Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.

Truth is very simple but it is very difficult to grasp because of ignorance. You have to only realize the world in which you exist is created out of single clay. And that single clay is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.

Thus you and your body and the world in which you exist are nothing but consciousness because they are merely an illusion created out of the consciousness. Perfect understanding of ‘what is what’ is needed.

A Gnani can point at the sky, but the seeing of the star is the seeker's own work. It is necessary to reflect on the same truth again and again till it becomes a reality. One needs to constantly reflect on the subject until he gets a firm conviction of what is what. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
