On the other hand, there may be an ascent in the scale of being.
When the soul is a-dreaming, what it thinks it sees and hears, etc., is all illusion, for it does not see or hear, etc., what it thinks it does. In a state of profound dreaminess the soul leaves the body and lives in close fellowship with Brahman.
How is the soul to obtain final release from the thral- 157 The World's Greatest Books dom of material conditions? By meditating on Brah- man as he is set forth in the sacred scriptures.... Brah- man must be thought about and meditated on in all his attributes, and this produces identity with the one great self of existence.
Though Sankara makes this to be the teaching of the Sutras, in another place he insists that Brahman is with- out attributes. He is not, therefore, consistent. The meditation on Brahman which leads to soul-freedom must have regard also to Brahman's negative qualities, i.e., his not being gross, nor subtle, wise nor fooHsh, etc.
THE RELATION OF KNOWLEDGE AND CONDUCT The knowledge of Brahman is independent of action, and not subordinate to it.
