‘I’ is the cause of ignorance. The ‘I’ hides the truth of the Self.+

The Knowledge of the Soul itself is the Self-knowledge. The ‘Self’ is not the ‘I’. This ‘I’ is the cause of ignorance. The ‘I’ hides the truth of the Self.

Ignorant people are based on the ‘I’ because they are unaware of ‘what is this ‘I’ in actuality. They stuck to the reality of the ‘I’, which they take it as real.

The witness is not you but the witness is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. The Soul, witness, witnesses you the world in which you exist together.

Until you hold the ‘I’ as the witness, you will not know the witness, which is hidden by the ‘I’. The ‘I’ is not the witness but the ‘I’ is witnessed.

I AMNESS is not the reality. Whenever the ‘I AMNESS is there the dualistic illusion or Maya is present. Whenever dualistic illusion is present the world in which you exist is present. The world in which you exist appears and disappears. Thus, The ‘I AMNESS appears and disappears.

The ‘I AMNESS’ is not permanent. The Soul, the Self is the witness of the coming and going, of the ‘I Am. It is erroneous to identify the Soul, the Self as the ‘I AMNESS'. The ‘I am’ represents ignorance. How can you watch the ‘I AMNESS’ the truth which is hidden by the ‘I AM- by you keeping quiet and keeping silent the truth will not emerge.

The ‘I’ hides the Soul. Therefore, the seeker has to realize ‘what is this ‘I’ supposed to be in actuality.

If the Self is not ‘I’ but the Self is the Soul then from the standpoint of the Soul, the Self:~

Where is the ‘I’?

Where is the ego?

Where is the body?

Where is the mind?

Where is the world in which you exist?

Where is the form, time, and space?

Where is the waking experience?

Where is the duality?

Where is void?

They are or have become one with the Soul which is present in the form of consciousness. consciousness is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth.

The ‘I’ is present only when the mind is present. The mind is present only when the world is present. The world is present only when there is a waking experience.

Deeper self-search reveals the fact that the waking experience is not considered different from the world. The world is not considered different from the mind. The mind is not considered different from the I’. This truth has to be assimilated.

The ‘I’ is merely an illusion created out of the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. ‘I’ is not the subject. The ‘I’ is an object to the Soul, which is the formless, timeless, and spaceless subject.

The subject (Soul) is the witness and the object is the witnessed (I).

That is why Bhagavad Gita: ~ The permanent is always there, only the transient ‘I’ comes and goes. (2.18)

The ‘I’ hides the Soul, the Self

People think the ‘I’ without the body is the Self. The seeker has to understand the fact that the fact that ‘I’ is not the Self, but the witness of the ‘I’ is the true Self, which is eternal.

If you hold ‘I-centric Gurus and their teaching as final you will remain hallucinating in the world of imagination.

Do not waste your time effort and life sticking to such half-baked dualistic Advaita teaching. Remember your goal is to reach the ultimate end of understating.

People refuse to accept anything other than their Gurus' words. For them, their Gurus' words are the ultimate truth. They do not accept anything other than their accepted truth. There is no need to convince such a mindset.

Such a mindset is not fit to acquire Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana. The seekers of truth accept only the truth nothing but the uncontradictable truth. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
