That great person who has 'seen/experienced' the Atma will explain it to another equally blessed person.
The caveat here is, just by listening/speaking about Atma doesn't automatically let the person 'see/experience' It.
Such guru/sishyas are very rare to come across!!

One 'sees' the Atma in wonder. Another 'one' speaks about It in wonder. Someone else listens to this wonder..
Even though everyone see, speak & listen about Atma in absolute wonder, nobody (rare exceptions aside) has actually 'experienced' It's true nature !!

'rAma rAvanayo: yuddham rAma rAvanayo: iva' - The battle of Rama & Ravana, is well just that!!
