Self-Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana is nothing to do with practical life, which is limited to form, time and space

People take their gurus as their model. Many think that wisdom to be the matter of theorizing.  But it is not so. Self-Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana  is nothing to do with practical life, which is limited to form, time and space. Everyone has to experience    birth, life, death and the world within the waking experience.  The dream becomes unreal when waking takes place. And waking becomes unreal when the self, wakes up in its formless non-dual true nature in the midst of waking experience. –

 Egocentric theorizing   does not lead to self-awareness. Water is the root of the element of the snow and cloud, similarly, consciousness is root of the element of the universe. From consciousness the universe comes into existence. In consciousness the universe resides. And into the consciousness the universe is dissolved. Consciousness is parent of all that is there.

All the add-ons and attribute based knowledge, which are inferior, have to be bifurcated and excluded to know the ultimate truth.  The seeker of truth has to drop all the inferior knowledge based on the attributes and go beyond Vedas to understand assimilate and realize the ultimate truth or Brahman. 

Reason is the common ground for whole humanity in modern age, whereas the appeal to scriptural relations reaches only the sects.  Those who argue that truth is only in their religion are vain logicians, depending on mere ideas, speculations and imaginations. 

Truth is 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 concept of god.  Thus, going beyond Veda, religion and conceptual god means going beyond illusion.   That is end of Vedas [Veda –antha]
