When the mind has become quieț through the use of mantra, and through its enlightened understanding of the philosophy of vibrations and karmas, we can go beyond body, speech, and mind and experience what we are in essence. At the time of a deep meditation, the above-mentioned manifestations of consciousness, knowledge, recognition, and the others, become synonymous, yet inadequate to describe the non-verbal transcendent experience. .
As we go beyond body, mind, and language, we slowly start experiencing the nature of atman which the ancients expressed in this way:
आत्मानमात्मना वेत्ति मोहत्यागाद् य आत्मनि तदेव तस्य चारित्रम् तज्ज्ञानं तच्च दर्शनम्
Atmanam atmana vetti Mohatyagad ya atmani
