God in truth is not within your body but God in truth is hidden by the illusory universe in which you exist.+

 

Searching for the God? Remember God is not within your body but God in truth is hidden by the world in which you exist.

God in truth is not in any mosque, temple, or church. The religious Gods are not God in truth.

Sage Goudapada’s rational exposition of Advaita: ~ “Whatever is seen, whether external or internal, whether by the ordinary persons or yogis, is unreal.

From the standpoint of the Soul, the ‘Self’, whatever you have seen known and believed, and experienced as a person becomes unreal (illusion).

To realize the world in which you exist is an illusion you have to realize that the ‘Self’ is not the ‘I’ but the ‘Self’ is the Soul, the witness of the ‘I’. Unless you realize the ‘Self’ as the Soul, you are all blinded by the dualistic illusion or Maya.

The experience of birth, life, death, and the world as a reality within the waking experience. The waking experience is a parallel dream, and the dream is a parallel waking experience. The waking experience is the dualistic illusion or Maya.

To overcome the dualistic illusion you have to get rid of ignorance by realizing the ‘Self’-is not the ‘I’. Until you hold the’ I’ as ‘Self’, ignorance will not vanish. So, there is a need to realize what is this ‘I’ is suppose to be in actuality.

You must realize that the ‘I’ is not the ‘‘Self’’, but the ‘‘Self’’ is the formless Soul the Soul is present in the form of consciousness. Since ‘I’ is the inborn conditioning and it will not vanish by inquiring ‘Who AM ‘I’? Or just saying I AM THAT, ignorance will not vanish. There is a need of deeper understanding of the nature of the ‘I’.

Deeper self - search reveals the fact that, the world in which you exist, is a dualistic illusion or Maya created by the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. And thus the existence of the universe in which you exist is negated, where is then any room to say that the ‘I’ is the ‘Self’. Without the ‘I’ the world, in which you exist cease to exist.

The Soul is the ‘Self’. The Soul is present in the form of consciousness. The Soul is the substance and witness of the illusory universe or Maya. The Soul is hidden by the illusory universe or Maya and it is always apart from the illusory universe or Maya.

The Soul is hidden by the universe, which is the dualistic illusion or Maya as its formless substance and it is without the dualistic illusion or Maya as its witness. in reality, the substance and witness of the illusion are one, in essence. That essence is consciousness. Thus, the Soul, the consciousness alone is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth.

Upanishads: ~ Fools dwelling in darkness, but thinking they wise and erudite, go round and round, by various tortuous paths, like the blind led by the blind. (Upanishads Nikilanada - Ch II-5 P-14)

No one can teach anybody. The wisdom is hidden within the world in which you exist. A Gnani can only show the way that much is the work of a Gnani.

A Gnani only guides the seekers to apply their own reason and realize the truth, which is beyond the form, time, and space.

When the seeker learns to view and judge and reason the three states on the base of the Soul, the truth will start unfolding on its own. First, the seeker may find it difficult to use Soulcentric reason but gradually it will become easy.

The Self-inquiry is finding out the ‘Self’ which is hidden by the illusory universe in which we exist.

By inquiring ‘Who am I?’, the ignorance will not vanish. Without getting rid of the ignorance, the Advaitic wisdom will not dawn. Without the Advaitic wisdom, it is not possible to realize the truth, which is hidden within the world in which we exist.

That is why Sage Sankara Says: ~ VC-63. Without causing the objective universe to vanish and without knowing the truth of the ‘‘Self’’ how is one to achieve Liberation by the mere utterance of the word Brahman? — It would result merely in an effort of speech.

What is the use of saying ‘I AM THAT’ without knowing what the ‘‘Self’’ is in actuality?

Without knowing the the ‘Self’ is not you but the Self is the Soul, without realizing the truth of the world in which you exist it is impossible to realize the truth beyond the form, time, and space. By a mere utterance of the word ‘I AM THAT', the truth will not be revealed. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
