REALISATION
that the concept of indeterminate or attributeless God (nirguna) is better than that of determinate God (saguna). Others hold just the opposite view. In fact both of them are erring. They neither attain nirguna brahman nor saguna Ishwara. There are no doubt, the two ways; but the goal is one – the realisation of the Ultimate or Eternal Absolute”. (Wisdom Unfurled Page 10, Para 2)
Epistemologically explaining the state of realization he stated that “Ignorance and knowledge are the two extremities of the same thing. Up to a certain extent it is termed as ignorance, after that it turns into knowledge. They are like the two poles of a magnet. Thus avidya (ignorance) has no existence without vidya (knowledge), or vidya without avidya. If one is there, the other must also be there. That means when the veil of ignorance is torn off, avidya and vidya are both gone. Avidya comprises the entire sphere included in both avidya and vidya. That is the state of tam which is beyond both. It is in true sense the state of realization – where is neither avidya nor vidya.
