"Liberation is achieved not by observances or by analysis, nor by deeds or learning, but only by the realisation of one's oneness with God, and by no other means. The beauty of a lute and skill in playing its cords can bring some pleasure to people but can hardly make you a king.  In the same way, speech alone, even a deluge of words, with scholarship and skill in commenting on the scriptures, may achieve some personal satisfaction but not liberation."<ref>Sankaracharya.
