श्लोक 54: शंकराचार्य जी कहते हैं ... कोई भी उपलब्धि स्वयं की प्राप्ति(पाने )से बढ़ कर नहीं है ।स्वयं को जान पाना सर्वश्रेष्ठ उपलब्धि है। सब संसारिक सुख एक बुलबुले की तरह क्षण भर के हैं। आत्मज्ञान ही सर्वोत्तम ज्ञान है । इसके समक्ष सब कुछ तुच्छ हो जाता है। ब्रह्ममन > उत्तम बुद्धि, अति शांत मन और परम ज्ञान की स्थिति है । श्री कृष्ण जी कहते हैं: •क्षेत्र -वह स्थान जहां "मैं नहीं हूं"। अर्थात ..शरीर/ मन/ बुद्धि और माया पूर्ण संसार ...( जिसे जाना जा सके) ..वह सब क्षेत्र है।वह "मैं नहीं हूं।" और ,•क्षेत्रज्ञ- जो "मैं हूं"।यह "मैं " आत्मा शाश्वत और सर्वव्यापी है ।"मैं" क्षेत्र के बदलते रूप का भी साक्षी हूं। प्राचीन काल में मंदिर.... पूजा /अर्चना के स्थल ना होकर केवल मनन और ज्ञानियों के प्रवचन का स्थल हुआ करते थे। लिंग एक प्रतीकात्मक चिन्ह है ...जो अनादिकाल को दर्शाता है। जो यह बताता है कि भगवान ना ही जन्म है और ना ही मृत्यु है। वह निराकार और अनंत है। क्योंकि पुरातन काल में वातावरण में ही इतनी शुद्धता थी कि बुद्धि भी अति शुद्ध हुआ करती थी। यही कारण था कि एक प्रतीकात्मक चिन्ह से ही सब कुछ स्पष्ट हो जाता था। वह जो हर जगह है और जो हर में बसता है -वह ब्रहमन है। इस तरह आत्म ज्ञान ही ब्रह्म ज्ञान है। "शिव"- "ब्रह्म"- "आत्मन"-"मैं" .....सब एक ही है। Verse 54 Shankaracharya says that no attainment is greater than the attainment of Self, no achievement is greater than this achievement. Big or small the worldly pleasures are no more than a bubble. On the contrary the bliss of self- realisation is unparalleled and no knowledge is higher than this knowledge. The minuscule intellect holding immeasurable Brahman :- When the intellect becomes totally refined; free of all afflictions; and becomes completely still - it is said to be attainment of already attained Brahman ( it is moving from not-knowing the Self to knowing the Self). In Gita, Sri Krishna explains the difference between the words: ksetra is all that which is not ‘I’, ie. the body-mind-intellect and the entire elemental world, the field-of-the-knowable. ksetragya is ‘I’ am the Self, that which is eternal and witnesses the ever changing ksetra. In ancient times, temples were not built as places of worship, rather it was a place for quite contemplation or for listening to the discourses given by enlightened masters. Linga was just a symbol. God has no form. When the surface of the Linga is traced, there is no starting point or an endpoint; indicating God is birthless and deathless. In earlier times people had evolved pure intellects, jnana had the upper hold. Abstract symbolisation was enough to explain things. That which is everywhere and that in which all exist - is Brahman. The highest knowledge is the knowledge of Brahman. Shiva means Brahman, Brahman means ‘I’, ‘I’ means the Self.
