## Deepraani: Essence of Vaadrusti (447)
The liberated soul is a future inhabitant of the liberated state. Their path is one, the path of renunciation, and despite differences in stages, it is one, like the arrows on the shore of the ocean. Because the principle beyond the worldly existence is called 'Nirvana', it is one in essence, despite differences in words. Sadashiva, Parabrahma, Siddhatma, and other such words refer to the same one. Because it is free from the conflict of attributes, it is free from suffering, free from disease, and inactive. This principle is beyond the reach of birth and death. Therefore, when the seeker, through their lack of understanding, fails to recognize this principle of Nirvana, their devotion is filled with conflict. And this principle of Nirvana is inherently established. How can there be differences in the knowledge of this all-knowing, pure Nirvana, which is the closest goal? And if there is no knowledge, then how can their devotees be liberated?
**The seeker's one path**
**The principle of Nirvana is one**
**How can there be differences?**
**"The structure of the karmic matter is there, where the mind is not absorbed; the path is one, that of Shiva, the world is full of differences...mind"**
Then, one might wonder, how can there be differences in the knowledge of the liberated souls? The solution is that the knowledge is of different types, depending on the disciple's capacity and suitability. Because these liberated souls, who have overcome the cycle of birth and death, teach in a way that is suitable for the individual, based on their karmic tendencies and other factors. Or, another reason is that, although the knowledge is one, it appears different due to the differences in the listeners, because of their varying levels of merit and ability. And this also benefits everyone, according to their individual capacity and understanding. Or, it is because of the influence of time and space, that the knowledge appears different, depending on the perspective of the sage who is teaching. And the essence of this sage's knowledge is ultimately the same, all-knowing. Therefore, it is not appropriate to oppose or contradict the knowledge of the liberated souls without understanding their perspective. Because such opposition is ultimately harmful. Therefore, it is not appropriate to engage in debates and arguments about this all-knowing subject, like a shadow in the form of a debate. Therefore, the seeker who is eager for liberation should completely abandon the dry, intellectual pursuit of knowledge, which is born out of false pride. The seeker should not be attached to the pursuit of knowledge, because it is ultimately irrelevant. Because even the principles of Dharma have to be abandoned in the pursuit of liberation, then what is the point of this trivial, dry, intellectual pursuit?
**Explanation of the differences in knowledge**
**Intellectual pursuit**
**Abandonment**
**"Even Dharma, forgiveness, etc., are abandoned, the Dharma of renunciation is revealed; then what is the use of arguments for the ignorant, what is the use of study for the sage?...mind"**
