You, your body and the world appear together and disappear together. It is impossible to separate you from the world in which you exist.+

You, your body, and the world appear together and disappear together.  It is impossible to separate you from the world in which you exist.

Until you think you are an individual separate from the world and the world existed prior to you and you are born in it afterward ignorance will prevail as a reality. Till ignorance is there the universe prevails as reality.

The world in which you are born, living, and going to die is the dualistic illusion or Maya.   

Sage Sankara says: ~ “The exercise in discrimination between real and unreal and renunciation of the false is real leads to Self-awareness.

Remember:~

First, realize the ‘Self is not within you. You are bound by the experience of 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. The 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  God in truth. 

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

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 the birth, life, death, and the world because the one which is born, lives and dies is not the ‘Self.   

The Soul is birthless and deathless because it is an ever-formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.

You are the birth entity. Your existence is limited to form, time and space. Your religion, your religious Gods your beliefs, your religious rituals and prayers, your race, and your nationality are nothing to do with the Soul, the ‘Self’  because the Soul, which is present in the form of 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 raises 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 how can anything exist which is not consciousness?

When the conviction about 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

Oneness means Advaita. Advaita means one without the second.+

Oneness means Advaita. Advaita means one without the second. This Oneness is a fundamental quality of the Soul, the Self.

The universe of diversity is a dualistic illusion or Maya created out of the Soul, the Self, which is present in the form of consciousness. The oneness is reality and diversity is an illusion.

Just by saying let there be ‘oneness’ the diversity will not vanish. Without the Advaitic wisdom, ignorance will not vanish. Without getting rid of the ignorance, the dualistic illusion (the world in which you exist) prevails as a reality.

Trying to get rid of the ‘ego’ is like trying to get mangoes from a coconut tree. The truth is not imagination.

Ornamental words may give satisfaction to a certain mindset but it blocks one from realizing the ‘Self’ hidden by the ignorance.

The ultimate truth is the fullness of consciousness. There is nothing apart from consciousness, because, the whole universe is nothing but consciousness. 

Remember:~

In ignorance we are many. In reality, there is only oneness. When the reality appears this world in which we exist which we think as reality becomes an illusion.

The sky,  the star, planet, sun, the moon, the earth,  the mountain,  the ocean, and the person are all the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness, but  consciousness is not specifically any of these while simultaneously being all of these. Only when the Soul is hidden within the illusory form, time and space the sky, the star, planet, sun, the moon, the earth, the mountain, the ocean, and the persons are a reality. The nature of the Soul is the formless, timeless and spaceless existence.

It is necessary to realize the sky, the star, planet, sun, the moon, the earth, the mountain, the ocean, and the persons are all created out single stuff, which is the consciousness.  Consciousness is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth.  God in truth alone is real, the sky, the star, planet, sun, the moon, the earth, the mountain, the ocean, and the person are all merely an illusion created out of consciousness

It is this Supreme Oneness which alone is real since there is nothing else but the Self. Verily, there remains no other independent entity in the state of realization of the highest Truth." 

 Oneness is the nature of the Soul, the Self.  Oneness means Advaita or nonduality. When the universe appears then the duality appears. When there is duality then there is no Oneness. When there is Oneness there is no duality. 

By saying I and you are one the Oneness will not arise.

There is no Oneness in the realm of ignorance.

There is no Oneness when ‘I’ is present. 

There is no Oneness when the mind is present.

There is no Oneness when the dualistic illusion is present.

There is no Oneness when the universe is present.

There is no Oneness when the waking or dream is present.

There is no Oneness when the individual experience of birth, life, death, and the world is present. 

There is consciousness Oneness in the midst of the dualistic illusion when Advaitic wisdom dawns.

Remember:

All is consciousness.  The whole universe is consciousness. From consciousness, the universe comes. When the universe disappears, the consciousness still remains without form, time and space.

Sage Sankara: ~ “VC~ All this universe which through ignorance appears as of diverse forms, is nothing else but Brahman (Consciousness) which is absolutely free from all the limitations of human thought.

Sage  Sankara:~ VC~.63: "Without knowing and examining the external world, one can’t know the Truth, as the idea that the external world exists, won't go. It can go only by an inquiry into the nature of the external world.

After verifying through deeper inquiry if one finds the world is the reality within the illusion then he cannot again say the world is not an illusion.

If one is frightened to accept the world is an illusion (waking) then he is unfit to acquire Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana. Those who stuck with the reality of the world are stuck with the reality of the individual experiences of birth, life, and death, which takes place within the unreal world. 

The pursuit of truth is for those who have the courage to accept the reality as it is, that is the reality without form, time and space.

When you finally realize the ‘‘Self’ ‘is not you but the ‘Self’ is the Soul then you will realize the world in which you exist is merely an illusion created out of the Soul. The Soul is present in the form of consciousness.

Sage Sankara says:~ VC-47-  All the effects of ignorance, root, and branch, are burnt down by the fire of knowledge, which arises from discrimination between these two—the Self and the non-Self.

Till you think you are an individual separate from the world and the world existed prior to you and you are born in it afterward the ignorance will prevail as a reality. Till ignorance is there the universe prevails as reality.

Sage Sankara says: ~ “The exercise in discrimination between real and unreal and renunciation of the false is real meditation, then why you are indulging in other types of meditation.

Perfect understanding and realization of ‘what is what’ leads Self-awareness. By holding onto theories one remains in the realm of duality. You have to mentally go on dropping what is not the truth through deeper Self-search. 

Finally when you become aware of the fact that, your ego, your body, and the world are one in essence then there is Self-awareness in the midst of duality. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar

Sage Sankara says: - VC-47 All the effects of ignorance, root, and branch, are burnt down by the fire of knowledge, which arises from discrimination between these two—the Self and the non-Self.

Sage Sankara said ~ Atman is Brahman ~ That is the Soul is the ultimate reality.

Sage Sankara said ~ The world is an illusion ~ that is the world in which you exist is an illusion.

Mentally hold on to the real and discard the unreal by realizing the world in which you exist is nothing but an illusion created out of the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness is the ultimate reality. Whatever existed as the illusion is nothing but consciousness.

Remember this, the ‘Self’ not you but the ‘Self’ is the Soul, which is present in the form of the consciousness.

If the ‘Self is not you then the world in which you exist is nothing to do with the Self. The world in which you exist is a reality until you hold the ‘Self’ as the ‘I’.

From the standpoint of the Soul, the Self, the world in which you exist is an illusion.

You have to mentally discard the ‘I’, which is an illusion.

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

To get Advatic Gnana:~

The seeker must First: Realize the truth ~ that the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness is the only reality and the world in which he exists is an illusion.

Second: Soulcentric reasoning from all points of view.

Third: giving up all further argumentation based on the ‘I’ and realizing the truth, which is hidden by the ‘I’.

This realization comes from being certain that the Soul alone is real and the ‘I’ is unreal.

Stick to the truth.

If one wants to acquire Atma Gnana or Brahma Gnana or ‘Self’- Knowledge or knowledge of consciousness, one has to drop all ritualistic and orthodox baggage to move forward in their pursuit of truth.

We have to grow from the inside out. None can teach us, and none can make us spiritual. There is no other guru but our own soul.”

Self-knowledge or Atma Gnana or Brahma Gnana cannot be attained by one who is without strength or earnestness or without the receptiveness and courage to accept the truth and reject the untruth. If a serious seeker strives sincerely by means of inquiry, analysis, and soul-centric reasoning, he will be able to realize it.

It is only through the seekers' sincerity and earnestness in their spiritual pursuit, that the knowledge started revealing on its own. Anyone who has humility and patience and is sincere and ready to drop their accumulated dross and receptive to accept the truth will enter non-dual ‘Self’-Awareness when his conviction becomes firm. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar

This idea of worshiping Guru as God is not a Vedic idea but adopted from Jainism and Buddhism.+

There is no need to condemn Gurus and yogis but the seeker of truth must know their falsity for his own information and how they become a hindrance in the path of wisdom.

By condemning Gurus and yogis, the ignorance will not vanish but one will be able to get rid of the ignorance by removing all the blockade which is blocking the realization of truth.

By sticking to Gurus and yogis, the ignorance will not vanish but ignorance becomes more and more deep-rooted. There is no need for grace and blessings of the physical Guru because you and your physical Guru belong to the dualistic illusion. Thus, all the grace and blessings of the physical Guru are illusory. If you stick to your physical guru and get emotionally and sentimentally get involved with the physical Guru and keep glorifying and worshiping the physical Guru you are unfit to acquire Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.

Yogis and Gurus are not Gods:~

This idea of worshiping Guru as God is not a Vedic idea but adopted from Jainism and Buddhism.

Vedas bar human worship: ~

Yajur Veda:

"They are enveloped in darkness, in other words, are steeped in ignorance and sunk in the greatest depths of misery who worship the uncreated, eternal prakrti -- the material cause of the world -- in place of the All-pervading God, But those who worship visible things born of the prakrti, such as the earth, trees, bodies (human and the like) in place of God are enveloped in still greater darkness, in other words, they are extremely foolish, fall into an awful hell of pain and sorrow, and suffer terribly for a long time.":~ (Yajur Veda 40:9.)

Then why worship and glorify the Gurus and Yogis (human form) in place of God when Veda bars such activities and also warns people who indulge in such activities are enveloped in still greater darkness, in other words, they are extremely foolish, fall into an awful hell of pain and sorrow, and suffer terribly for a long time.

The one who identifies himself as a Guru, yogi, or some Guru's direct disciple does not belong to the path of Advaita or Atmic path.

If you are seeking the truth, nothing but the truth then it is your bondage, that you are stuck to some Guru or yogi. If you are seeking truth then you have to be free from the Gurudom. Gurudom is meant for the ignorant populace who are not seeking the truth but some peace and comfort in their practical life.

Ashtavakra Samhita: ~ "The man of knowledge (Gnani), though living like an ordinary man, is contrary to him and only those like him understand his state.

The truth-seeker seeks only truth. The inner Sage will guide you with love. Your sincerity and seriousness lead you to your inner core. Sincere and serious seekers are not excluded.

Sage Sri, Sankara: ~ "Though I wear these robes of a Sanyasin, it is only for the sake of bread." (Select Works of Sage Sri, Sankara" also his commentary on Brihad)

Thus, the above passage proves that all those who were the sanyasin robes are wearing them for the sake of bread belong to the religion; they are nothing to do with Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana. There is no need to criticize and condemn the Gurus, yogis, and swamis because they are needed for the welfare of the ignorant mass in the dualistic world.

Sage Sankara says the transparent Truth of the Self, which is hidden by the illusion, is to be attained through the instructions of a knower of Brahman, (Gnani)

~ Then why you are sticking a Guru who is not a Gnani.

That is why Swami Vivekananda said: ~ “You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, and none can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher, but your own Soul.”

By worshipping the religious Gods and Gurus one will not get Self-realization or God-realization.

The Soul, the inner Guru reveals ‘what is real’ and ‘what is unreal” when the seeker is receptive and ready. : ~ Santthosh Kumar

You cannot get rid of the desire. By getting rid of the desire, the ignorance will not vanish.+

You cannot get rid of the desire. By getting rid of the desire, ignorance will not vanish. The ignorance will vanish only when you realize the fact that the ‘Self’ is not you but the ‘Self is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. 

Clinging to any physical Guru is clinging to ignorance. The half-baked knowledge propagated as the ultimate truth leads the seeker to the hallucinated version of the truth. 

Sage Sankara page 482: On Gnani: ~ "The knower of Brahman wears no signs. Gives up the insignia of a monk's life…his signs are not manifest, nor his behavior." 

Sage Sankara: ~ The Knower of the Atman or the knower of Brahman or Brahma Gnani. 

When the knower of Brahman (Gnani) wears no signs it means he does not identify himself as Guru or yogi or teacher or Swami because a Gnani sees the form, the time and space are one in essence. Thus, there is unity in diversity in his realization. 

Sage Sankara says the knower of Brahman wears no signs. Gives up the insignia of a monk's life then it is of no use to renounce the worldly life, and become a sanyasi or monk or Sadhu to acquire ‘Self’-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Brahma Gnana. 

The seeker of truth need not renounce the worldly life run to the mountains or run behind the Gurus or Yogis to waste their precious life and fortune in order to get Self-knowledge. If the seeker has an intense urge to realize the truth, then that very urge leads to realizing the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth. 

What is the use of renouncing anything within the dualistic illusion? By giving up anything the ignorance will not vanish. By hearing ornamental words from some guru wisdom will not dawn. Sticking to some Guru trying to get Self-realization is trying to drain the sea drop by drop. 

The path of wisdom is the inner path. The inner path is a mental path. Without stepping out of the boundary of form, time, and space, it is impossible to assimilate Advaitic truth. The Advaitic truth is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth. 

This path of wisdom is Soulcentric, therefore, it is very difficult to tread this path from the egocentric perspective. Even the yogis and saints have not come to understand the state of the Soul, the ‘Self’. 

Ignorance is the cause of the ‘I’. The ‘I’ is present in the form of the mind. The mind is present in the form of the universe. The universe appears as waking or a dream (duality) and disappears as deep sleep (non-duality). 

Man and his experience of the world are the results of ignorance. Man and his experience of the world cease to exist as a reality in the realm of the Soul, the ‘Self’. 

Consciousness is the ultimate truth or Brahman. The world in which you exist is created out of consciousness. 

When this truth is revealed from the inner core then the Advaitic wisdom will dawn. When wisdom dawns then the Soul, the ‘Self’, remains in its own awareness in the midst of the diversity. :~ Santthosh Kumaar

Your quest is over. To realize this simple truth why you are struggling. Sage Sankara has already declared 'What is the truth?' and 'What is the untruth? +

To realize this simple truth is why you are struggling. Your quest is over. You need not search for the truth. Sage Sankara has already declared 'what is the ultimate truth' and 'what is the untruth'. His declaration is final. There is no need to follow anyone or any teaching.

Sage Sankara says: ~ Atman is Brahman. The Atman alone is real is not religious truth. Sage Sankara declared this Advaitic truth, which is the ultimate truth to the whole world, many centuries back is the rational truth, scientific truth, and the ultimate truth.

The Atman which is present in the form of consciousness is real and eternal, the world in which we exist is merely an illusion.

There is no need to search for the truth the truth is already declared by Sage  Sankara you have to realize the world in which you exist is merely an illusion created out of the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. to realize this simple truth,  why you are struggling.

That is why Buddha: ~ Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders.

That is why Sage Sankara says:~ V-C:~65. As a treasure hidden underground requires (for its extraction) competent instruction, excavation, the removal of stones and other such things lying above it, and (finally) grasping, but never comes out by being (merely) called out by name, so the transparent Truth of the Self, which is hidden by Maya and its effects, is to be attained through the instructions of a knower of Brahman, followed by reflection, meditation and so forth, but not through perverted arguments.

To realize the Self is not you, but the ‘Self’ is the Soul, there is no need for a Guru, there is any need to study scriptures, there is no need to go to the mountain, there is no need for gurus blessing or grace. There is no need to waste your fortune and precious time of your life. There is no need to follow anyone.

If you have an intense urge and are ready to drop all your accumulated knowledge and start afresh then you are fit and ready to take this mental journey.

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.

So-called spiritual paths are useless unless it causes us to seek the truth of our true existence. All controversies about creation, the nature of the universe, evolution, the purpose of God, etc., are useless in the Atmic path.

Bhagavan Buddha: ~ There are only two mistakes one can make along the road to truth: not going all the way... and not starting.

Throw your mental garbage and start NOW.

Swami Vivekananda:~ This bending the knee to superstitions, this selling yourself to your own mind does not befit you, the Soul. Self is infinite, deathless, and birthless. Because the Self is infinite Spirit, it does not befit you to be a slave. ... Arise! Awake!

Sage Sankara said: ~ Neither by the practice of yoga nor philosophy, nor by good works nor by learning, does liberation come, but only through the realization that Atman and Brahman are one in no other way. (1) Vivekachoodamani v 56, pg 25

Why you are waiting.  Conquer the truth on your own independently. That is what Sage Sankara wants you to do.

The Soul, the inner Guru reveals ‘what is real’ and ‘what is unreal” when the seeker is receptive and ready.

Come ye slow, or come ye fast; it is but the Soul, the Advaita that reveals itself at last.

Millions are searching for truth, but one in million will realize it. If you are a truth seeker then you are, one from that million. 

The Soul, the 'Self' reveals‘ what is real’ and ‘what is unreal” when the seeker is receptive and ready.

It takes time for the seeker to gain the perfect understanding of ‘what is the truth’ and ‘’what is untruth’.

It takes time for the Soul, the Self to wake up from the sleep of ignorance, and it takes time for one realizes the 'Self"(truth), hidden by the ignorance (I).

Slowly but surely you must imbibe the truth, which is beyond form, time, and space by realizing that form, time and space are one in essence.

When you enthrone the Soul, which is present in the form of the consciousness in your subconscious, you will realize the world in which you exist is merely an illusory play of consciousness.

The consciousness is ‘One’, and all divisions of the form, time, and space are illusory. Be established in this Advaitic Truth, which is eternal. 

Remember: ~

Read, reason, and reflect, again and again, to get a firm conviction. Repeated reading and reflection on my blogs and posts help the seeker to get rid of all accumulated knowledge, which is blocking his realization of truth.

Reading and reflecting on my blogs and posting is a mental exercise to sow the seed of Advaita. That is the only way to make the egocentric subconscious to Soulcentric.

 Reading my posts and blogs often propels the reader into the thinking process. By reading the repetition of the words on this subject, the inner whirling in the subconscious takes place which replaces the old thoughts by accepting the new thoughts.

Perfect understanding removes all sorts of an obstacle in the pursuit of truth. Only through constant repetition of words in my posts will make one think differently but it also creates more doubts and confusion in his subconscious and his inner urge to know the truth, even more, intense. And it also helps to overcome some of our conditioning, which we have inherited from parental grooming and circumstances.

Repetition of the words assists a seeker to help to focus his attention from form (body) to formless (Soul or consciousness), which is very much necessary in the pursuit of truth. And repetition is an effective tool and has an effect on the subconscious mind, which is not receptive to receiving new truth because it is conditioned to receive only a logical conclusion based on ego (you). : ~ Santthosh Kumaar

People think God is somewhere, up there, monitoring every act of the people, guiding the lost and uplifting the poor.+

People think God is somewhere, up there, monitoring every act of the people, guiding the lost and uplifting the poor. God is the one who punishes the evil and rewards the benevolent. 

Some people even claim of seeing them in stone idols or some conceptual belief, in inanimate or living things. Is it our faith that makes us believe that there is some supreme power above us or is it a reality, that can never be answered. 

Until this conviction is there one is in the grip of the dualistic illusion. The dualistic illusion keeps one in ignorance of our true existence. Therefore, there is a need to verify the fact that the ‘Self’ ‘, is not you but it is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. 

When you become aware of the fact that, the ‘‘Self’’ is the Soul, then you realize the fact that whatever is known, seen, believed, and experienced on the base of the false self is an illusion. 

You are the false self  (ego)within the false experience(waking). You are not the ‘Self’ because you are the birth entity whereas the Soul, the ‘Self’ is birthless and deathless. The Soul is birthless and deathless because it is the ever formless, timeless, and spaceless existence. 

From the standpoint of the Soul, the ‘Self’, you and your experience of the world and your religion and your religious God and your accumulated knowledge is a falsehood because the waking experience is merely an illusion. 

Bhagavad Gita: ~ Brahmano hi pratisthaham ~ Brahman (God) is considered the all-pervading consciousness, which is the basis of all the animate and inanimate entities and material. (14.27). 

When Bhagavad Gita says, God is considered the all-pervading consciousness which is the basis of all the animate and inanimate entities and material then nothing has to be accepted  as God other than consciousness. 

Bhagavad Gita: 7: 19: Atman (God in truth) alone exists~ everything is Atman, there exists nothing except Atman. Such a man is extremely rare."

The Vedas confirm God is Atman (Spirit), the ‘Self’. 

Rig Veda: ~ 'Prajnanam Brahma'- Consciousness is the ultimate reality or Brahman or God in truth.

God in truth is the Atman, the Self. Atman is present in the form of consciousness.

Do not accept any other God other than Atman not worship other than Atman.

Let these words be inscribed in your subconscious.

Nothing is real but God. Nothing Matters but love for God in truth. God in truth is everywhere and in everything.

God in truth is hidden by the illusory universe. God in truth alone is and all else is an illusion.

Rig Veda: ~ The Atman is the cause; Atman is the support of all that exists in this universe. May ye never turn away from the Atman, the  ‘Self’. May ye never accept another God in place of the Atman nor worship other than the Atman?" (10:48, 5) 

The dualistic worship of "God” is only for the ignorant populace. The God in truth is only Atman, the innermost ‘Self’. In reality, there is no duality, no differentiation. Only Atman exists. 

Yajur Veda – chapter- 32:~ God is Supreme Spirit has no ‘Pratima’ (idol) or material shape. He cannot be seen directly by anyone. He pervades all beings and all directions.

Yajurveda: ~ There is no image of God in truth. God in truth is unborn and eternal. (Chapter 32, Verse 3)

Yajurveda: ~ God in truth is nondual and pure." (Chapter 40, Verse) 

Yajurveda: ~ "They are entering darkness, those who worship the natural things (like air, water, fire, etc.), they are sinking more in darkness who worship created things." (Chapter 40, Verse 9)

Thus, Idolatry does not find any support from the Vedas.

Bible says: ~ “God is a Spirit, and they that worship God must worship God in Spirit and in Truth". (John 4:24)

The Spirit is the root element of the universe. The Spirit is present in the form of the Soul, the ‘Self’. The Soul is present in the form of consciousness. 

From the Spirit, the universe comes into existence. In the Spirit, the universe resides. And into the Spirit, the universe is dissolved. The Spirit is the parent of all that is there. 

If God is the Spirit, then how does man know God created the world? There is no proof. If man had seen God creating the world, he could admit it, but how could he have seen God before he came into existence? (i.e. were created). : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
