Surely, this whole universe is Brahman! – Such is the august
verdict of the Atharva Veda. Therefore, all that exists is Brahman and nothing
but Brahman.
Under no condition can that which is superimposed upon any
substratum, have an existence independent of that substratum. That is
why everything that is manifested before our eyes in other words, this whole
universe is the supreme Brahman, the one Reality, the One without a second, pure
Being, pure Intelligence, the Unconditioned, the silent Peace, the Unlimited
without beginning or end, the Witness who remains apart from all activity absolute
Bliss.
And Brahman transcends the world of multiplicity produced by
maya that other name for ignorance. He is eternal and can never be touched by a
shadow of suffering. He is indivisible, incommensurable, without form,
undifferentiated, inexpressible and immutable. He shines with his own Light!
Vivekachudamani (231,
237-38)
