Hi Virgo,
Any authentic and traditional Indian system will call the reality as Brahman. Be it Vedic Yoga or Tryambaka or whatever.
What is Brahman ?
It is the reality.
It can not be described in words for words limit it.
it can not be held completely in our memory since memory limit it.
What is the world and what is Brahman ?
As the learned men put it there is only Brahman. Your true self.
The world appears as it is to all of us due to a veil of ignorance called maya. But maya is neither real nor unreal. It is basically irrelevant or useless at the best. Maya is not reality. It covers the true reality.
Brahman is the true nature of soul. It is unlimited, happiness, one, unchangable, wisdom, eternal, undivisible ....
But when the veil of ignorance removes itself by following a path of say Vedic Yoga Or Tryambaka Or whatever ...
True Brahman is realized.
That is the reality - which can not change.
Well this is all that all the Indian scriptures describe whether Yoga, Tryambaka, Sankhya or whatever.

Vedic yoga is bhakti-yoga, devotional service to the Surpreme Personality of Godhead. There are intermediate realizations, namely Brahman and Paramatma, but the destinations of those who stop at these realizations cannot satisfy the eternal hankering of the soul to be united in pure love with the Supreme Lord. We are prakrti, the energy of the Lord and the Lord is purusha, the energetic source of everything. As prakrti, the enjoyed, our fulfillment in complete bliss and knowledge is realized when we are purified of all desires but the desire to surrender all of our energy to the service of the Supreme Lord.
Realization of the Supreme as consciousness is known as Brahman realization, the all-pervading aura of God. Higher than this is the realization of the Lord's localized personal feature in everyone's heart and pervading the whole material cosmos. In this feature He is known as Paramatma or Supersoul. The highest realization is realization of the personal form of the Lord in which He exchanges loving relationships with His devotees. The principle that governs happiness in this world, ie, the more selfish the desire the more miserable the result, also applies to spiritual realization. When we give up all desire for selfish results in our spiritual goals and surrender to the Lord in pure love, our bliss and knowledge has no limit.
