Knowledge and knower dhyana

Sri Sadgurubhyoh Namah

VBT 137 :
Jnaanaprakaashakam sarvam sarvenaatmaa prakaashakah,
ekam ekasvabhaavatvaat jnaanam jneyam vibhaavyate

Translation :
Knowledge reveals all, and the self of all is the revealer, and the knowledge and knower is of same nature. One should meditate on knowledge and known.

Commentary :
Known is the object, knower is the self, and knowledge is about the object.  The nature of knowledge and knower is same. With this knowledge contemplate on knowledge and known.
What this means is that knower, and known is also same.
