According to Sages of Truth, the Atmic path is not meant for the religious and yogic mindset. There is no need to convince anyone and waste time in perverted arguments and provocation.
The seeker's aim is to think deeply and reflect constantly to realize the truth, which is beyond form, time, and space.
The ignorant who want to remain in ignorance is not qualified for the Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.
The Atmic path is not for religious and yogic-minded people. Religious and yogic people must move on to their chosen path. The Atmic path is for only seekers of truth who are seriously searching for the truth of their own existence.
Sages of truth restrained themselves parting the Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana to the mass and only a selected few. It was hidden from the people who were not qualified and receptive to it.
Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana was not written down but was imparted orally to the chosen few.
Thus, religion was given to the masses, and knowledge of the Spirit was given to only a selected few. Thus we find traces of the knowledge of the spirit in the religious books as parables.
Katha Upanishad says: ~ This Atman is attained by him alone whom It chooses. To such a one Atman reveals Its own form. ( II -23-P-20)
Upanishads:~ Fools dwelling in darkness, but thinking they wise and erudite, go round and round, by various tortuous paths, like the blind led by the blind. (Upanishads Nikilanada - Ch II-5 P-14)
The Soul, the 'Self' reveals ‘what is real’ and ‘what is unreal” when the seeker is receptive and ready
Do not believe in a thing because you have read about it in a book. Do not believe in a thing because wise man has said it was true. Do not believe in words because they are hallowed by dualistic knowledge Find out the truth for yourself. The seeker has to use Soulcentric reason, which leads to the realization of the truth, which is beyond form, time, and space
Advaitic wisdom can never be gained by argument and provocation. Discard all the accumulated dualistic knowledge by realizing the world in which you exist, exists because of ignorance.
Get rid of ignorance by realizing the world in which you exist is created out of single clay and that single clay is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.
Realizing the ‘Self’’ is not you but the Soul is Self-realization. The Soul is the cause of the universe and it, itself is uncaused.
Katha Upanishad says:~ Fools dwelling in darkness, but thinking themselves wise and erudite, go round and round, by various tortuous paths, like the blind led by the blind. (Ch~ II-5 P-14)
Those who indulge in a perverse argument from their own standpoint and opinion are not seeking the truth, which is beyond form, time, and space. They just want to exhibit their accumulated knowledge accumulated from here and there. They think what they know is the ultimate truth.
They think whatever they propagate is the ultimate truth. The question never occurs to them, “Is what I know is really the truth.
Remember:~
Remember:~
Many people quote Advaita without understanding it really in its highest aspect. They declare themselves as Gnanis, but their knowledge is really mysticism.
Sage Sankara says: ~ “What is accepted without a proper inquiry will not lead a person to the final goal. On the contrary, such acceptance will result only in evil, something detrimental to our spiritual progress.
Seekers of truth should not believe blindly in traditional orthodox nonduality without verifying all the facts from every angle. One has to reflect through reasoning, over and over again without getting tired of the process. (Commentary on Vedanta-sutra).
There is no hope for those who call themselves realists because they are unwilling to make an inquiry into what is real. The true seeker of truth analyses and inquires, not relying on first impressions, and hence he is fit for the path of Advaitic wisdom.
They have to know that what they are saying is true. There are so many conflicting teachings by many gurus, that one gets confused as to which are true.
They will be unable to prove because they do not know the proper test of truth they preach what is written in books with their own interpretation without verifying them.
Why does one start with assuming that anything he knows is true? Many things he regards many things unconsciously as true because he enjoys them or is pleased or satisfied with them. But without verification, nothing has to be accepted as truth. Advaitic wisdom gives uncontradictable truth which is the rational truth, scientific truth, and ultimate truth.
To realize the Advaitic truth is the seeker's aim, which is quite different from the opinions of dualistic egocentric schools. Advaitic truth is Soulcentric truth and uncontradictable truth. All the various views are mere opinions and have nothing to do with the ascertainment of the ultimate truth, which is beyond the experience of birth, life, death, and the world.
In the Advaitic path, the seeker of truth has to analyze the whole world; and think consistently on it. He has to exercise his thinking faculty and inquire continually; discrimination is essential; this practice is the only way to grasp the Advaitic truth.
Gnana is that knowledge, knowing which everything else becomes known. Truth can be known by its being impossible of contradiction and depending entirely on what is not the self. The seeker of truth has to go to the very root of things. He rejects everything which is untrue by Soulcentric reasoning." : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
