Nature of avidya is it is beginingless and has an end. This is true for any avidya. Like if I dont know the route to a certain city by employing the right means of knowldge I can know the route to that city.
Similarly by using vedas the means of knowledge which removes self ignorance through shravanam from a shrotriya brahma nishta guru invariably will lead to knowledge.
Many people feel that saying so is arrogance they feel to gain self knowledge is possible only for great sanyaasis and we are after all small people etc.
These thoughts are not rooted in reality. If we have the iccha shraddha and bhakti all are eligible to shravanam.
Shravanam leads to knowledge. Because its a means of knowlddge. Similar to looking at mount everest gives mount everest knowledge. You cant say only great people can see mount everrst i am small person so I should never be able to see it. Thats wrong. If you use eyes you will know mount everest is huge.
Simiarly through shravanam self ignorance WILL go. If not wecontinue shravanam with shraddha . We can lead a karma yogi lifestyle to make our minds clearer and capable of receiving knowledge through shravanam. Unless you expose urself you will never be aware. So lets be karma yogis and continue to listen with shraddha.
Om.
