Besides giving an outline of the system, each of them emphasizes some one or other of the main features. Aparokṣānubhūtiḥ is one such title manual, which, while presenting a brief description of Vedanta, deals specially with that aspect of it which relates to anubhūtiḥ realization of the highest truth. Such realization, unlike the knowledge of objects through sense-perception of inference, is an immediate and direct perception of one’s own Self, which is here indicated by the word aparokṣa.
