THE SECRET INSTRUCTION
After this comes the secret instruction, which is knowledge of Brahman. Brahman is spiritual substance. The spirit soul is Brahman, and so is the Supreme Spirit. Arjuna asks.
“What are the symptoms of a person whose consciousness is absorbed in Brahman? How does he speak, how does he sit, and how does he walk?“ (Bhagavad-gita 2.54)
In the eighteenth chapter the conclusion is given:
“One who is situated in Brahman sees Brahman everywhere, and he thinks, ‘I am also Brahman.’ Thinking in this way, he will meditate on Brahman, and will not experience happiness or distress. He remains steady in any situation, and merges his
consciousness in Brahman.“ (Bhagavad-gita 18.54)
“Go on doing your duty and don’t desire the fruits of your labour.“ (Bhagavad-gita 2.47)
In a general way. this is knowledge of Brahman.
