A Yogi who has obtained enlightenment has the same use for the Vedas as one has for a small pond in a place flooded with water!
From the book
Countless Bodies + Countless Hearts Equals Brahman
Everyone creates their own ignorance. Man is born as an aspect of God, but has created this ignorance by himself. The feeling of 'I and mine' is ignorance. Due to this feeling, he is born and dies again and again. Truly all is Poornam. Everyone is Poornam. Those who are born from Poornam are Poornam. Yet the jeeva's ego does not allow him to know this. This is the reason for all sufferings. He cannot experience the all-pervading One.
