Sage Sankara is the Vedic Sage of universal order projecting him as a non~Vedic Sage is a great error.
The Vedic truth is a pure spiritual truth. The essence of the Vedas is pure spirituality. Advaita propagated by Sage Sankara is pure spirituality. Advaita is nothing to do with non-Vedic Advaitic orthodoxy, which is meant for the ignorant populace.
When Sage Sankara says that Ataman is Brahman (God in truth) then why accept anything else as God other than Atman.
Sage Sankara says: ~ Ataman is Brahman. Thus, the Soul the innermost ‘Self’ is God. Therefore, all the Gods with form and attributes are mere imaginations based on the false self. Thus, there are adulterations and add-ons in the past, which have to be bifurcated if one wants pure Vedic essence.
This clearly indicates the nature of the ‘Self’, which is the Soul. Thus, the Soul is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God. When the Soul is the ultimate truth or God why indulge in worshiping the religious God, which is not God in truth.
The Hindu belief system which came into existence after the 2nd century has nothing to do with the Vedas and Vedic religion or Sanatan Dharma.
The ultimate truth or Brahman is God. God in truth is not the religious God we believe and worship.
Understanding what is God is not so easy. Religious people can only imagine God based on their inherited blind beliefs.
Vedic God is Atman. God is the Soul, the Self. God becomes the universe in waking and the universe becomes God in deep sleep. The universe is nothing but an illusion created out of God in truth.
When you realize the ‘Self’ not but the ‘Self’ is the Soul, God then there is no second thing that exists other than God, which is present in the form of consciousness.
Advaitic truth is very easy but it is most difficult to assimilate because of the inherited beliefs and accumulated knowledge.
Without dropping all the inherited beliefs and accumulated knowledge which is based on the illusory form, time, and space it is difficult to understand and assimilate the knowledge of the formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.
If you have the courage of Buddha, who dropped the religion, Vedas, and the concept of God then only you are fit to acquire Self -knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.
That is why Sage Sankara:~ VC~.61. For one who has been bitten by the serpent of Ignorance, the only remedy is the knowledge of Brahman. Of what avail are the Vedas and (other) Scriptures, Mantras (sacred formulae), and medicines to such a one?
VC- v6~ Let erudite scholars quote all the scripture, let Gods be invoked through sacrifices, let elaborate rituals be performed, let personal Gods be propitiated---yet, without the realization of one‘s identity with the ‘Self’, there shall be no liberation for the individual, not even in the lifetimes of a hundred Brahmas put together
Sage Sankara goes on to say: ~A sickness is not cured by saying the word “medicine.” You must take the medicine. Liberation does not come by merely saying the word “Brahman.” Brahman must be experienced. Until you allow this apparent universe to dissolve from your consciousness until you have realized Brahman, how can you find liberation just by saying the word Brahman? The result is merely noise. Until a man has destroyed his enemies and taken possession of the splendor and wealth of the kingdom, he cannot become a king by simply saying “I am a king.”
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 and the effects of Maya, can be reached by meditation, contemplation, and other spiritual disciplines but never by subtle arguments.
Only when you realize God in truth you will realize the universe is nothing but consciousness, which is God in truth because the universe is merely an illusion created out of God in truth.
Advaita is “Science of the Soul, which is the ultimate truth or Brahman. Sage Sri, Sankara’s wisdom is the universal truth and ultimate truth par excellence.
Advaita does not belong to any particular religion. It is not philosophy but Advaita is the truth of our true existence.
Advaita is the Science of Truth; the Atmic path is the path of spiritual liberation par excellence, wide and deep as the ocean which contains virtually all the water of the world and in which all particular forms ultimately dissolve.
Advaita is “Science of the Soul, the Self, which is the ultimate truth or Brahman. Sage Sankara’s wisdom is the universal truth and ultimate truth par excellence.
The Advaita is the Soul ~ the One without A Second.
Advaita is the nature of the Soul. The Advaita is the Soul, which is present in the form of the consciousness itself. The Advaita is the spiritual heart. The Advaita is Self-evident. It is not established by extraneous proofs. It is not possible to deny the Advaita because It is the very essence of the one who denies It. Advaita l is the basis of all kinds of knowledge, presuppositions, and proofs.
Advaita is present in the form of consciousness and is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
