ଉତ୍ପତ୍ତି ଓ କଥା
Advaita Vedanta tradition; attributed to Adi Shankaracharya (also appears in Brahma Jnanavali Mala) · Adi Shankaracharya (traditional) · c. 8th century CE
This couplet is one of the best-loved summaries of Advaita Vedanta. Its bold opening line — 'I shall declare in half a verse what is said in millions of books' — became a byword for the conciseness and power of the non-dual teaching. The half-verse it delivers, 'Brahman is real, the world is appearance, the self is Brahman,' is regarded as the crest-jewel statement of the entire tradition.
✦ ଶାସ୍ତ୍ରରେ କୁହାଯାଇଥିବା ପରି
Teachers say that the seeker who fully realizes the meaning of this single half-verse has grasped the goal of all scripture; for in directly knowing that the Self is Brahman and the world a mere appearance, the bondage born of ignorance is dissolved and liberation is attained.
