Commentary
Yo, so like, ancient peeps, like Vasishtha, been spittin' truth about this whole field-knower vibe since, like, forever. Ancient hymns, like the Rig Veda, dropped mad knowledge in different ways. Brahma Sutras? That's Vyasa or Badarayanacharya's attempt to make sense of all the conflicting stuff in the Upanishads. Gotta study those Sutras to, like, *really* get the Upanishads. They're also called Sariraka Sutras 'cause, like, fifteen sutras in chapter two, part three are all about the body (the field). Brahma Sutras also explain the field-knower thing, with stuff like 'only as the Self, let a man meditate on It.' It's all super logical, convincing, and no cap, decisive. No doubt in the Brahman tea.
