In plain words
He who penetrates to the ultimate meaning of the Upanishads is truly established in Vedānta. When the scriptural question asks how a living creature escapes the bonds of birth and suffering through recitation, one might mistakenly think ritual practice alone brings immediate freedom. To dispel this, the text declares that a true seeker must be grounded in Vedānta, showing that liberation springs from knowledge alone, while ritual actions serve merely to purify the mind.
Close to the Sanskrit
He who reaches and understands the meaning of the Vedāntas and Upanishads is a Vedāntaga. Based on the scriptural text 'What reciting does a creature become free from the bondage of birth and saṃsāra?', when the doubt arises that ritual recitation is a direct cause of liberation, it has been stated that 'A Brāhmaṇa should be a Vedāntaga' to show that rituals are not the direct cause of liberation, but knowledge alone is. However, the causality of actions is through the purification of the inner organ.
