according to Advaita. It resides in human beings, animals, birds, trees, nature, objects and virtually everywhere, One who has realized the Supreme Brahman becomes a man of self-realization. Such a person regards all the pairs of opposites such as heat and cold,
happiness and sorrow, profit and loss, victory and defeat and failure and success alike. He is not disturbed by failures and insults. He gets total control over his mind. He sees Brahman everywhere and gets liberated.
