The past, present, and future and the world are a reality within the dualistic illusion or Maya.+

The past, present, and future and the world are a reality within the domain of the form, time and space. The form, time and space are a reality within the dualistic illusion or Maya. 

The dualistic illusion or Maya is created out of a single clay and that single clay is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.

From the standpoint of the Soul, the Self, there is no past, no present, and no future because the Soul is formless, timeless and spaceless existence. 

The past, present, and future belong to you. You and the world in which you exist belong to the dualistic illusion or Maya.

The past, present, and future is nothing to do with the Soul, the Self, which is present in the form of consciousness.

Remember: ~

First, realize the ‘Self is not within you. You are bound by the experience of the birth, life, death, and the world whereas the ‘Self is birthless and deathless because it is ever formless, timeless and spaceless existence.

The Soul is the Self. The Soul is present in the form of consciousness. Consciousness is the cause of the world in which you exist and it itself is uncaused.  Consciousness is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth. 

From the standpoint of the Soul, the  Self the world in which you exist is merely an illusion.  Thus, the world in which exists hides the Soul, which is the real God. 

Till you think the ‘Soul, the Self’ is within you, you will never be able to realize God in truth. God in truth is not limited to you but it pervades everything and everywhere in the world in which you exist.

Remember:~

You are with the body. You are born in this world. You are living in this world and you are going to die in this world.  The world itself is an illusion.

When the ‘Self’ is not you but the ‘Self is the Soul, which is present in the form of the consciousness then what is the use of discussing birth, life, death, and the world because the one which is born, lives and dies is not the Self.   

The Soul, the Self is birthless and deathless because it is the ever formless, timeless and spaceless existence.

You are the birth entity. Your existence is limited to the form, time and space. Your religion, your religious Gods your beliefs, your religious rituals and prayers, your race, your nationality are nothing to do with Soul, the  ‘Self’  because the Soul, which is present in the form of the consciousness itself is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth. 

It is not you have to establish in consciousness but by realizing you, and your experience of the world is nothing but an illusion created out of consciousness, Self-awareness arises in the midst of the dualistic illusion.  

Mentally reduce the world in which you exist into consciousness by realizing the world in which you exist is nothing but consciousness.  If everything is consciousness then nothing can exist without consciousness.  

When the conviction about the consciousness becomes firm then everything falls into the right slot 

Self-realization is very much necessary to realize the world is an illusion.   Until and unless you realize the Self is not you but the Self is the Soul Self-realization is an impossibility. :~Santthosh Kumaar
