ADVAITA GOD IN TRUTH
Friday, April 12, 2024
If man had seen God creating the world, he could admit it, but how could he have seen God before he came into existence.+
No religious God can exist apart from the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.+

Advaita regards consciousness as permanent and all-pervading while Buddhists regard it as momentary.+
Advaita is very different from Buddhism. Advaita regards consciousness as permanent and all-pervading while Buddhists regard it as momentary.
Buddhism has not proved the truth of Nonduality because they did not believe in the existence of Athma they believed in emptiness. Without Athma there is no nonduality. Buddhist fail to recognize that emptiness is the nature of the Athma, the 'Self'.
Madhyamikas regard that a non-existent entity can appear in perception like it does in the snake in the rope illusion.
Sage Sankara’s Advaitic wisdom is a hidden treasure of the spiritual truth.+
Sage Sankara’s Advaitic wisdom itself is Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana. Sage Sankara’s Advaitic wisdom is the fairest flower of wisdom in the world.
Sage Sankara’s Advaitic wisdom is a hidden treasure of the spiritual truth. Sage Sankara’s Advaitic wisdom itself is Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.
Sage Sankara says: ~ “A buried treasure is not uncovered by merely uttering the words: “Come forth.” You must follow the right directions, dig, remove the stones and earth from above it, and then make it your own. In the same way, the pure truth of the Atman, which is buried under Maya can be reached by getting tod of ignorance.

The Soul, the ‘Self’ cannot be experienced because it is ever nondual and it is cause of the experience.+
Gita says throughout the book, not to rely on Yoga, but to rely on reason (Buddhi) (discrimination between real and unreal).+
Self-realization cannot be achieved through egocentric knowledge or yoga because Self-realization is not the product of any action, but it is a mental (inner) journey and can be achieved only through perfect understanding and assimilation of ‘what is what’.

The ‘I’ is blocking your realization of truth.+
Most of the Gurus and Yogis s approach was more practical, and they stuck with the reality of the 'I', they take it as real. All their teachings of Advaita are based on the dualistic perspective. They describe marvelously the goal but do not indicate the steps to be taken: their recurring phrases "unified consciousness" and "let go" and "'love alone" are not a roadmap. Such teaching will not yield the truth of the whole.
Many Gurus describe perfection is the awakening to Reality ~the realization that pure Consciousness alone is, that the perpetually fluctuating and evanescent contents of the mind derive from it. This awakening effectively happens in an instant. But in order for the lightning flash to take place, resulting in a firm and unshakable certitude, long labor is necessary, which they seem to underestimate. “Truth is formless is their answer.
Many Gurus' teachings seem essentially negative, potent but bitter medicine for those imprisoned by institutional cults. They break the disciple's bonds but then lead him to a vast desert where they abandon him.
The ‘I’ is blocking your realization of truth. The ‘I’ based teachings have to be discarded in order to realize the Advaitic reality.
The seeker has to make sure what is this ‘I’ supposed to be? The seeker has to make sure the unreal nature of the ‘I’ which comes and goes in order to realize the truth, which is beyond the form, time, and space
That is why Bhagavad Gita: ~ “The permanent is always there, only the transient ‘I’ comes and goes. (2.18)
The ‘I’ hides the truth of the whole.
Where there is ‘I’ there is ignorance.
Where there is ignorance there is separation.
Where there is separation there is duality.
Where there is duality there is an illusion.
Where there is an illusion there is the mind.
Where there is the mind there is the universe.
Where there is the universe there is waking or dream.
Where there is the universe there is waking or dream there is form, time, and space
Remember:~
Where there is no ‘I’ there is no ignorance.
Where there is no ignorance there is no separation.
Where there is no separation there is no duality.
Where there is no duality there is an illusion.
Where there is no illusion there is no mind.
Where there is no mind there is no universe.
Where there is no universe there is no waking or dream.
Where there is no waking or dream there is no form, time, and space
When there are no divisions of form, time, and space there is the Advaitic reality.
Perfect understanding of ‘what is what leads to the realization of Advaitic truth, which is beyond the form, time, and space.
Without knowing ‘what the mind is in actuality how you can know the consciousness? Playing with words is not spirituality. The consciousness is the cause of the mind and it itself is uncaused.
Preaching teaching is not wisdom. only through perfect understanding and the realization of ‘what is what leads to the realization of the truth, which is hidden within the form, time, and space and it is without the form, time, and space.
Consciousness is not an object but it’s the subject. Knowledge of both the object and the subject is ‘Self’-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
