General definition (in Hinduism)
: archive.org: A History of Indian PhilosophyAccording to 艢a峁卥ara, (this) Brahman is the immediate consciousness (s膩办峁) which shines as the self, as well as through the objects of cognition which the self knows. It is thus the essence of us all, the self, and hence it remains undenied even when one tries to deny it, for even in the denial it shows itself forth. It is the self of us all and is hence ever present to us in all our cognitions.
