योगवासिष्ठः yogavāsiṣṭhaḥ - book-4, chapter-31, verse-24

ब्रह्म सर्वं जगदिति वक्तुं नाज्ञस्य युज्यते ।
तपोविद्याननुभवे स तदेवानुभूतवान् ॥ २४ ॥

brahma sarvaṃ jagaditi vaktuṃ nājñasya yujyate ,
tapovidyānanubhave sa tadevānubhūtavān 24

24. brahma sarvam jagat iti vaktum na ajñasya yujyate
tapasvidyāananubhave saḥ tat eva anubhūtavān

24. ajñasya brahma sarvam jagat iti vaktum na yujyate,
tapasvidyāananubhave saḥ tat eva anubhūtavān (kutaḥ)

24. It is not appropriate for an ignorant person (ajña) to declare, 'The ultimate reality (brahman) is this entire universe.' For without the experience (anubhava) gained through spiritual discipline (tapas) and knowledge (vidyā), how could such a person have truly experienced that very reality (brahman)?
