| The student who receives ब्रह्मविद्या with श्रद्धा (devotion) while doing तपस् in the forest can reach अर्चिर्देवाः (the God of Light) during Utkramana time. The student who has attained knowledge in the above-mentioned manner continues on his journey through the daytime, शुक्लपक्ष (full moon night) and when the Sun is in the Northern hemisphere. Then through the देवताः he reaches आदित्य, and from there to चन्द्र (the Moon God), moving further to the [[विद्युत्|energy]] देव (उर्जा). There he is received by the देवदूत (Bhagawan’s assistants), who welcomes him to परमब्रह्म (the Absolute). This is देवयान मार्ग (the divine Way), the final destination in the [[भूलोक|Bhuloka]] dimension. | | The student who receives ब्रह्मविद्या with श्रद्धा (devotion) while doing तपस् in the forest can reach अर्चिर्देवाः (the God of Light) during Utkramana time.

| The human body is likened to the Cosmos. The Brahmajñāni (the wise one) goes to the higher realm through heart veins which are beyond hundred, unlike the ordinary person who transits through the veins lesser in number. A critical question that arises is how does he perceive through which veins he is passing through? Such discussion is unwarranted as one who has worshiped the Param purusha, is absorbed in the ultimate goal, the wise seeker who through his own education and by God’s grace being illuminated is able to recognize the veins that help him depart to a higher realm. Such an advanced soul can transit through the path of light and even if such a person dies at night or in Dakshinayana, the jnani will attain "brahmaLoka" (Moksha). | | The human body is likened to the Cosmos.
