Liberation is not something to be bestowed upon us by an angel from the heavens. It is to be claimed by everyone, as everyone is qualified for it. How can we free ourselves from the entanglements of worldly living?
Lord Krishna points out, "The liberated one sees actions as being done in various ways by Nature itself, and also the Self as the non-agent."
There is no shortcut to becoming free. It is an arduous task of constant attention. It is a conscious detachment from material matters. It is vigilant abidance in the actionless Self.
The scriptures teaching Vedanta insist on the reality of One appearing as many. Thus, even as one sees diversity through the senses and the mind, the intellect must remain riveted on the conviction that One Brahman alone is manifesting everything! Only through this can one reach the state of liberation - Brahman.
