    So true are these words. How to be united with the world. After all the world is not different from what we are. Getting to know this through knowledge or otherwise is the one termed Mukti?

    One thing is missing in this piece is "the process of writing". The "seer", the "seen" and the process of "seeing" - when all are indeed one and we create these 3 is the ultimate tatvam in Vedanta. Similarly the "Knower" (Subject /Actor), "Knowing" (Action /process) and the "Known" (object). In Vedanta this is discussed in many places - including "drik, drishya viveka". (This is called as Tri-puti). In Bhagavadgita - 18.18 this is dealt in detail - read with multiple commentaries. You'd need a bit of Linguistic understanding to go deep in this. This sloka has many "Goodartha" deep/ hidden meanings.
