Re: On the unity of ontology(being), epistemology(consciousness) and soteriology(blis
A Christian can gain a complete knowledge of Judaism and not be a Jew. I said that but I am sure if it is really suitable because I believe all religions can lead to the absolute so let me try something else. A Capitalist can learn everything about Marxism and not be a Marxist and by the same token a pandit or philosopher can learn very much about Shiavism and not be a devotee of Lord Shiva having all the knowledge and not applying that knowledge is the difference. If one doesn't through yoga break his or her attachments to this world and the obstacles to self realization that knowledge is good for teaching and commenting. So as WunderMonk said and I agree I think knowledge does not produce liberation.
I don't know that Advaita philosophy defines Brahman by satchitananda or describes Brahman as it or as his attributes. You see I believe The Supreme Reality, The Absolute, Shiva to be without attributes, Shiva simply is and what is is Shiva. I believe Satchitananda to be the evolution to Self Realization.
I don't have enough knowledge to fill a small pail but this is what I believe and hope it is not too long until I know.

All is Siva there is nothing without Siva.
