Upadeshasahasri 12.8

12.8 Shankaracharya

विज्ञातेर्यस्तु विज्ञाता स त्वमित्युच्यते यतः । स स्यादनुभवस्तस्य ततोऽन्योऽनुभवो मृषा ॥

vijñāteryastu vijñātā sa tvamityucyate yataḥ | sa syādanubhavastasya tato'nyo'nubhavo mṛṣā ||

Since it is the knower of knowing that is meant by 'you' [in 'You are That'], that alone would be his [real] experience; any experience other than that is false.

क्योंकि ज्ञान के ज्ञाता को ही 'तुम' [वह तुम हो] कहा गया है, इसलिए वही उसका [सच्चा] अनुभव होगा; उससे भिन्न अनुभव मिथ्या है।

Meaning today and contextआज के लिए अर्थ और संदर्भ

Realisation is not a new event that happens to you; it is recognising the knowing that is present in every event.

आत्मबोध कोई नई घटना नहीं जो आपके साथ घटे; यह उस जानने को पहचानना है जो हर घटना में मौजूद है।

Shankaracharya defines true experience: being the knower of all knowing.
