Freedom happens when the unreal nature of the universe is exposed and the reality hidden by the universe is revealed.
The universe itself is what God is all about. The totality of the universe is what God is all about. You just study the nature of the universe with all the seriousness and sincerity to unfold the mystery of the universe. That is all you have to do.
Until the mystery of the universe is not solved, the God in truth hidden by the illusory universe will not be realized.
Look into the nature of the universe. And you will be able to see that universe by its very nature is illusory. The moment you understand that the universe is illusory, ignorance disappears and Self-awareness arises.
Only when you open the book of the universe the God in truth hidden in the book will be revealed. When you finish reading the book of the universe then the universe will become an illusion and God in truth alone prevails as the ultimate reality.
The path of wisdom is divided into three parts:~
First:- Hearing the truth--that consciousness is the only reality and that the universe along with you is merely an illusion or Maya.
Second:- Reasoning upon these words of wisdom of Sage Sankara from all points of view.
Third:- Giving up all further argumentation and realizing the truth. This realization comes from being certain that consciousness is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth.
Consciousness is the one single reality or Brahman. The individual self is a reality within the illusory universe or Maya.
You are also part of the divine book of the universe! And whatever you have seen, known, believed, and experienced as an individual is part of it.
Remember: ~
The ‘I’ is the universe. Without the ‘I’ the universe ceases to exist. The Soul, the ‘Self’, and the universe are one in essence because the universe is nothing but an illusion created out of the Soul, the Self, which is present in the form of consciousness.
This universe is only the veil of ignorance on the Soul, the Self, which is present in the form of consciousness. The Self is not you but the Soul, which is hidden by the universe. The Soul is hidden by the universe because the universe is merely a dualistic illusion or Maya created out of the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.
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 Maya.
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.
Sage Sankara says clearly, the universe is not real. He says that Brahman and Atman are one. The ultimate and Absolute Truth is the Self, which is one though appearing as many in different individuals. The individual has no reality. Only the Soul, the Self is Real; the rest, mental and physical are but passing appearances
The universe is unreal and the Soul, the Self, which is present in the form of consciousness is real. Therefore, only Atman is real because there is no second thing that exists other than Atman, which is in the form of consciousness.
Remember: ~ All is consciousness. The whole universe is consciousness. From consciousness, the universe comes. When the universe disappears, consciousness still remains without form, time, and space.
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 a reality. Until the universe prevails as a reality religion thrives. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
