Quote
The knowledge of this world is not considered knowledge, it is worldly knowledge. Scriptural knowledge is considered as instrumental knowledge. Knowledge of the ‘ultimate goal’ (to experience Pure Soul) is the (real) knowledge. Scriptures are instruments and the knowledge within the scriptures is also an instrument. Whereas, the knowledge of the Self is the ultimate goal!

Bondage of worldly life cannot tie us down; such is the knowledge of Vitrag (Enlightened One). Our ‘Self’ is such that it can never be tied down. Recognize (know) that ‘Self’, attain the Knowledge of the Self; such is the Soul.

Quote
The Self is kalpswaroop (becomes what it contemplates). If kalpswaroop remains nirvikalp (free from I-ness and my-ness), then it is a parmatma, and if it remains as vikalp (I-ness), then it is sansari (worldly living being). To live as nirvikalp, it is difficult to attain that even in millions of lifetimes. Only when one meets a Gnani Purush (the enlightened one), such a state can be attained.
