Ayamatma Brahman

(“This Self is Brahman”) In the Hindu
philosophical tradition, one of the
“great utterances” (mahavakyas)
expressing ultimate truth. The truth
here is the identity of atman (the individual Self ) and Brahman (Ultimate
Reality); this identity is the heart of the
mystical texts called the Upanishads.
Aside from their importance in a
philosophical context as fundamental
truths, four mahavakyas were also
appropriated as symbols by the four
divisions of the Dashanami Sanyasi
ascetics. Each division had its own
mahavakya, just as each had a different Veda, a different primary sacred
center, and a different ascetic quality.
Ayamatma Brahman is the mahavakya
associated with the Anandawara division of the Dashanami Sanyasis.
