Deepest Knowledge in the Universe

Recently somebody dropped out of our course complaining that it did not have enough depth. They must have been sitting on the shore without diving in because the science that we are presenting is unlimitedly deep. Even one word of this science has the power to carry the sincere student across the inconceivably large span of our universe and across its even larger seven-fold coverings to the transcendental abode of the Supreme Person, who possesses perfect knowledge of everything past, present, and future. So anyone who does not think that this knowledge is deep should just try applying it. If they do so, they will experience first hand that it is the deepest knowledge in the universe.

Answers According to the Vedic Version:

Question: Final Conclusion of the Vedic Science

First of all I am very, very thankful to your for all your replies. My question is regarding the two classes of philosophers. One class believes that the highest truth is a kind of impersonal, formless oneness or light that is devoid of all qualities (nirguna) while the other class understands the highest truth as a person with transcendental form possessing unlimited (saguna) qualities. After listening to the personalists I tend to agree with them, but then the arguments of the impersonalists often create confusion in my mind. What is the proper understanding according the final conclusion of the Vedic science (Vedanta)?

Your servant,

Answer: Nothing Merges Into Oneness

The impersonalists, who worship God as the impersonal oneness, which is known also as the brahmajyoti or the divine light, are incomplete in their understanding. The light they are attracted to is nothing but the effulgent rays emanating from the transcendental body of Sri Krishna. Worshipping that light without realizing who is the person from whom that light is emanating will be always be frustrating and incomplete. This is so because love is the basis of satisfaction for the living being and we cannot have a loving relationship with light. We can only have a loving relationship with a person. Therefore the devotees of the Lord, those who realize the person who is the source of the light, find superior permanent happiness by reviving their original loving relationship with the Supreme Person. And the impersonalists remain ever frustrated in their attempts to permanently merge themselves in the brahmajyoti. They must be frustrated in this regard because Krishna confirms in the Bhagavad-gita that He exists eternally and that all of the living beings exist eternally. In other words, there is no point in time or beyond time in which everything is merged into the brahmajyoti, the impersonal oneness.
