It is not possible to become something other than what you are.
However, due to ignorance I take myself to be body mind, limited and so on.And there is an inside my body, outside my body. Then there is I need this , I need that to make me happy.
This is tree of samsara.
This is tree of samsara.
Through knowledge the ignorance is resolved.
As a result of knowledge, nothing new is gained.
What you are is left as what you are, devoid of any confusion or ignorance.
Therefore adi shankaracharya compares it with , sun revealing itself when the clouds disappear.
Hence we must not treat the moksha purushartha like some achievement similar to gaining wealth or power. It is rather the end of all those pursuits which leads to false goals. It is knowledge of that which is real, the anantha svarupam which is ananda svarupam.
