It is achieving the knowledge of oneness, i.e., to know that outside we are many but inside all are one.__edanta_ mentioned about __neness_, but could not say what is oneness. When I am saying that I am a living being all your Vedanta__, scriptures and traditional religions become extinct.

Achievement of divine consciousness means innumerable people will give him this divine consciousness. Innumerable people will come and say, __e are you._ So, when these people are announcing this before me, then only I am getting divine consciousness. At the same time they are also achieving it.
