This phenomenon applies to both mental and supra-mental world.It is not that every spiritual aspect and act is totally beyond common men’s reach. In this background Shastrashravana under a well-versed preceptor plays very vital role. Badarayana Vyasathe last Rishi of Vyasaparampara gives us various types of parameters with which we can unlock the subtlety of Upanishadic statement. In Sanskrit literature, various types Nyayasare appliedfor understanding of the Vedic statements. In the first chapter of Brahmasutra, Sutrakarauses many Nyayasin order to get SAMANVAYA (intentional harmony). ShastraDrishti is one of such parameter, which takes us to the real understanding of many Mahavaakyas and the salient statements like sTy< }anmnNt< äü, äüEv sn! äüaPyeit. In this context Shastram is Veda only. Dividing the Vedas into many artificial divisions like Mantra, Brahmana looks to be very much lopsided. Undoubtedly the Upanishads are the cream and core parts of the Vedas. Scholars with Upanishadic insight are the real zaô}. The great sages like Vamadeva are the real knower’s of the shastras. The great sage Vamadeva unfolds the mystery of Brahmavada declaring Ah< mnurÉv< sUyRí“ I am everything, everything is in me”. This particular insight is the real theory of everything. This realization facilitates a smooth passage for spiritual Sadhana. In the second Pada BadarayanaTakes many more statements which have very apparent validation ASpòäüil¼ain rd in the Upanishad. For example in the 3 chapter in Chandogya the statement goes like sv¡ oiLvd< äüt¾lainit zaNt %pasIt this statement further takes us to mnaemy> àa[zrIr> Éaêp> it means that everything is Brahman because everything emerges Brahman. That Brahman is not only universe in nature but also dwells and pervades inside the body activating the vital force, the mental force and makes the whole body spiritualized.
