He Who Does Not Know Is Like A Sacrificial Animal

And to this day, [those] who...know the self as I am Brahman [the ONE], become all this universe. 

Even the gods [any other dimensional beings] cannot prevent his becoming this, for he has become their Self. ...if a man worships another deity thinking: He is one and I am another, he does not know.

He [who does not know] is like a sacrificial animal to the gods. As many animals serve a man, so does each man serve the gods. Even if one animal is taken away, it causes anguish to the owner; how much more so when many are taken away!

Therefore it is not pleasing to the gods that men should know this [that they are the ONE].

-- Brihadaranyaka Upanishad, I.iv.10

"Consciousness shines in various external and internal forms.
There is no existence of objects apart from consciousness.
Therefore the world is simply a form of consciousness."

-- Kalikakrama, as quoted in the Shiva Sutras translated by Jaideva Singh

Awakening means understanding what is happening

Rise like Lions after slumber
In unvanquishable number,
Shake your chains to earth like dew
Which in sleep had fallen on you –
Ye are many – they are few.

-- The Masque of Anarchy, Percy Bysshe Shelley
