One who has to get over large river, does not feel happy at only seeing the other shore. If the case were otherwise, (i. c., if by merely sceing the other shore he could reach it) then might one become happy. It is quite different with one acquainted with truth. The mere knowledge of Truth will give him happiness. As soon as such knowledge begins to fructify, the person may be considered to have reached the other shore. They who thus know the Soul as freed from all worldly objects and is but the One, are said to acquire high and excellent knowledge.
