It is time to discard the ‘I’. Never use the word the ‘I’ or I AM for the Self. +

Everyone is holding some teaching or teacher or their accepted truth as a yardstick. All the accumulated egocentric knowledge is inadequate or useless in unfolding the mystery of the mind or universe.

The ‘I’ is inborn samskara or conditioning, and because of this inborn samskara or conditioning one has accepted the ‘I’ as the ‘‘Self’’, he is ignorant that the ‘I’ itself is the cause of ignorance. 

Because of this ‘I’   he has accepted illusion as a reality.   Therefore, there is a need to realize ‘What is this ‘I’?’  in actuality. Without knowing ‘what is this ‘I’?’ in actuality it is impossible to unfold the hidden truth which is beyond the form, time, and space.

The ‘Self ‘is not the ‘I’. The ‘Self’ is not within the body. The ‘Self’ is hidden by the ‘I’. The ‘I’ is ignorance. The ‘I’ is an illusion.

Bhagavad Gita: ~ “You must first see the ‘I’ as illusory before you see others as illusory. ~ CH.2 v.16

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’ comes and goes to realize the truth, which is beyond form, time, and space. 

The 'I-centric' Gurus and their teachings are not the Advaitic wisdom of Sage Sankara. 

Until you hold the ‘Self ‘as the ‘I’ you will never be able to get Self-realization.  ‘I’ hides the Soul, which is the Self. ‘

'I’ is ignorance.

‘I’ is the duality.

‘I’ is form, time, and space.

‘I’ is the universe.

‘I’ is the waking.

‘I’ is the dream.

‘I’ is the illusion.

‘I’ is the experience of birth, life, death, and the world.

But  remember:~

Without the ‘I’ there is no ignorance.

Without the ‘I’ there is no duality.

Without the ‘I’ there is no form, time, and space.

Without the ‘I’ there is no universe.

Without the ‘I’ there is no waking.

Without the ‘I’ there is no dream.

Without the ‘I’ there is no illusion.

Without the ‘I’ there is no experience of birth, life, death, and the world.

The ‘I’ hides the Soul, the Self. which is the cause of the 'I'. 

That is why Ashtavakra Gita 16:10:~ If you desire liberation, but you still say ‘I',  if you feel the ‘Self’ is the ‘I’, you are not a wise man or a seeker. you are simply a man who suffers.

Bhagavad Gita: ~ The permanent is always there, only the transient ‘I’ comes and goes. (2.18)

It is time to discard the ‘I’. Never use the word ‘I’ or I AM for the Self.   : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
