Whereas Brahmavidya and Panchagnividyas are also expounded in the same Chandogya Upanishad, they are saprapanchaka in approach for the ordinary householder, whose observances lead him to the realization of the Brahman.  However, it is evident that all these vidya's are steps in the process of the evolution of the human mind and all ultimately lead a sadhaka to the Infinite (variously called as Brahman, Parabrahman or Absolute consciousness or Pure Consciousness).
