Gnani is One who knows all the animate and inanimate things in the universe are merely an illusion created out of a single clay and that single clay is the Soul or consciousness. Knowledge of the Single clay is Advaitic Gnana.
A Gnani sees duality as nonduality in the midst of dualistic illusion or Maya because he has
attained Gnana.
Gnani does not consider his body as the body and the world in which he exists as the world because he has realized he and his body and the world in which he exists are merely an illusion created out of consciousness.
Remember:~
Ashtavakra Samhita: ~ "The man of knowledge (Gnani), though living like an ordinary man, is contrary to him and only those like him understand his state.

The Gurus and yogis belong to
religion, not Spirituality. Guru and yogis are meant for those who are
emotionally involved with their religion and religious Gods and Gurus A Gnani
will never force anyone to accept the path of wisdom.
Gnani will constantly bring the
seeker back to the fact of his inherent perfection and encourage him to seek
the truth, which is hidden by the illusory form, time, and space. A Gnani knows you need
nothing, not even him, and is never tired of reminding you.
A Gnani continuously shares
Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana with serious seekers.
A Self-declared Guru is more
concerned with himself than with his disciples and plays with their sentiments
and emotions. Sticking to such Gurus the seeker will not get the Self
–realization.
Guru and yogis are meant for
those who are emotionally involved with their religion and religious Gods.
Remember:~
Religion and yoga are not spirituality. Spirituality is nothing to
do with religion and yoga. Spirituality is based on the Spirit the real God
whereas religion and yoga are based on the matter (body). The matter is
nothing but an illusion created out the Spirit the real God.
Manduka Upanishads:~ It is impossible to find out
who is a Gnani because he bears no external mark. Neither nudity nor the yellow
robe has anything to do with him.
A Gnani cannot have the idea of
renouncing the world or giving up something of the practical world because that
would connote the idea of duality. Duality is merely an illusion from the
ultimate standpoint. Knowing no second thing at all there remains nothing to be
given up.
Self- Knowledge is only is true
knowledge not the absence of duality. Self -Knowledge cannot destroy the world
but it eliminates ignorance and exposes the unreal nature of the mind or
universe.:~Santthosh Kumaar
