WHile introducing Vedantha, Swamy Sundara Chaitanya downplays Vedas and says they are not that Important. For the sake of Pravachanam it is Ok. Also he states Atma Gyana is sarvopadrava rahitha sthithi. While gyana gives ultimate experience.... still we have to live in this world, and we need to work, get money to fulfil our wihses, at least to survive. Just like switched of fan example, we are still bonded by karma. Teachings of Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa show some direction. We should have belief in Vedas and rituals and follow them too after self realization
