Is the sense in which Brahman is the same thing as a unified field just the sense that it is a single thing that is identical to the world as a whole? Basically like Spinoza's idea of God? (Which was considered heretical by most European theologians.) It seems to me that there is some similarity between that and a unified field (and in fact, I know some philosophers that are currently arguing on the basis of quantum field theory that the universe is really one indivisible whole and that all objects we're familiar with are dependent on it, rather than the whole being dependent on the parts), but I don't see the connection to a theory of everything. In particular, I don't see how it gives rise to a theory.
