One has to go beyond Vedas means go beyond religion. Go beyond religion means, go beyond the concept of God. Thus, going beyond Veda, religion and conceptual god means going beyond illusion

It is impossible to acquire Self-knowledge or Bramha Gnana or Atma Gnana with religious belief, god, guru glorification, and scriptural studies. Religion, god and guru glorification and scriptural studies are barricades in unfolding the truth.  Religion, God, guru and scriptures are based on the physical entity or ego, which is the false self (waking entity) within the false experience (waking).  Thus, it cannot transport the seeking mind to reality, which is beyond duality. 

The belief system is based on physicality. One has to dismantle the physical structure mentally by realizing the fact that, the self is not physical, but it is the  formless soul, to overcome all conflicts and move towards the universal truth. Until one thinks the body is one thing and the world is another he will remain in ignorance. Only when he becomes aware of the fact that, the body and the world both are created out of single stuff, then there is unity in diversity in his understanding.

The seeker has to confirm the fact that, the self is not the physical body, and self is not the mind or ’I’.  The mind is the whole experience of duality, which appears as waking or dream and disappears as deep sleep.  This basic knowledge is very essential in the pursuit of truth. Inquiry, analysis and reasoning is the tool for the attention of the seeking mind back to its primal state, which helps it to realize the fact that,  all the three states are mere mirage created out of the soul, which is  present in the form of the consciousness.  

Self-knowledge or Bramha Gnana or Atma Gnana  puts an end to the ignorance, which is the cause of the experiencing the duality as reality. Experiencing the duality (waking), as the reality is the cause of the misery.  Therefore, it is necessary for the seeker  to trace the invisible witness of the three states to overcome the ignorance.  Only when the seeker  overcomes the ignorance, realizes the fact that, ‘I’ is not the self but the soul is the true self, and learns to view and judge the three states on the base of the soul as self, the truth will start unfolding. 

the Seeker has to realize through deeper inquiry, analysis and reasoning the fact that,   ‘I’ is the mind. Mind is the whole experience of duality, which appears and disappears as waking or dream.   When the seeker  gets a firm conviction the self is the soul, it becomes aware of the fact that, viewing and judging the three states on the physical entity or ego is erroneous.  The judgment based on the physical entity  or ego is falsehood, because the physical entity  or ego is the false self within the false experience.   

Mundaka Upanishad says:  The rituals and the sacrifices described in the Vedas deal with lower knowledge. The sages ignored these rituals and went in search of higher knowledge. ... Such rituals are unsafe rafts for crossing The sea of samsara, of birth and death. Doomed to shipwreck are those who try to cross The sea of samsara on these poor rafts. Ignorant of their own ignorance, yet wise In their own esteem, these deluded men Proud of their vain learning goes round and round Like the blind led by the blind.

Truth is a bitter pill. It becomes very difficult for the seeker to accept it at first; because of his inherited conditioning. Gradually he will be able to grasp it as he moves on.

One has to go beyond Vedas means go beyond religion. Go beyond religion means, go beyond the concept of God.  Thus, going beyond Veda, religion and conceptual god means going beyond illusion.   That is the end of the Vedas (Veda –antha)

It is necessary for the seeker to do his homework, and verify the validity of all the claims, rather than blindly believe, what others expound as knowledge, till, the un-contradicted truth is obtained.
