Following received from Sthiti  Dasgupta, an ardent devotee of Shri  shri Thakur --
Lord Krishna says, "The  supreme indestructible is Brahman" Bhagvad Gita, sloka no.3 ch.8. Sri Sri Thakur views that the  word Brahman has been derived from  the  root word "Brinh" which means "Expansion"(Briddhi) or "Effulgence"(deepti) that is Brahma=Brinha(Briddhi, Deepti) +man(karttari) ref .bagartha  Deepika, pgno.108 . As per this analysis, Sri Sri Thakur defines "Brahman" in the following  terms: that which being developed and becoming everything, yet remains the same, is Brahman "ref. Satyanusaran, Eng Version. he also says "Brahman" as" Brihat  bhava  samanwita briddhiparata saha aadi karana" or otherwise "Biswasristika adi upadana "Ref. bagartha deepika.
Hence it is now clear that "Brahman" is the common factor which is manifested in all living entities(living and non living) as there base. It is due to the presence of  brahman that each individual has the ability to respond, react and perpetuate with an uphill move towards  becoming.. It is not the Varna as we all know. Whom we call Brahman are only "Vipras".
