यावानर्थ उदपाने सर्वतः सम्प्लुतोदके। तावान्सर्वेषु वेदेषु ब्राह्मणस्य विजानतः॥
yavan artha udapane sarvatah samplutodake tavan sarveshu vedeshu brahmanasya vijanatah
Translation
All the purposes served by a small well can be served by a great reservoir of water. Similarly, all the purposes of the Vedas are fulfilled for one who knows Brahman.
Commentary
A brilliant analogy - one who has realized Brahman has already achieved what all Vedic rituals aim for. Just as a reservoir makes a small well unnecessary, Self-realization transcends all lesser practices.
