Therefore, the Vedantic scriptures are replete with meditations

from many to One, and from One to many. They are also replete with

synonymous with the Universal One (BrahmanAtman Akiyam). What
existsisactuallytheUniversalOneorBrahman.Theseeminglymanifold

Vedanta prescribes some basic qualifications for the seeker of this

ultimatetruth.Theyarethequalificationsofselfrestraintandsoon.The
seeker of truth should approach an illumined Guru or the knower of
Brahman earnestly, and the Guru, in turn, showers his grace on his
discipleandteachestheultimatetruth.TheGurutheninstructsthemode
of spiritual practice or contemplating upon truth. The disciple then puts
his effort assiduously, and contemplates upon the nature of One, and
ultimately succeeds in attaining the truth, culminating in the form of an
experience. The disciple then becomes free from all Upadhis or
limitations originating from ignorance or Maya. He then becomes free
fromthecycleofrepeatedexistenceinthehumanbody.

Vedanta recognizes two aspects of Brahman. One is Saguna

Brahman(Brahmanwithattributes)andNirgunaBrahman(Brahmanas
a whole or without attributes). Saguna Brahman is our Gods and
Goddesses, and our Avatars, where the Brahman or the Knowledge of
Brahman is manifested in its fullness. Rama, Krishna, and Ramakrishna

Sri Ramakrishna is the great Avatar of this age, and the greatest
ever since, for he practiced and attained the truths of all religions. He
found the ultimate truths of all religions to be One. The greatest thing
aboutSriRamakrishnaishishumility,whichcomesfromthefullnessof
the knowledge of Brahman. If someone addresses him as Guru, he feels
great pain, and if someone asks for some upadesa he says, what do I
know? He dont even hurt a grass and doesnt stand on anyone. He

ThankYou.
