Ignorance is the cause of experiencing the illusory world in which we exist as a reality.+

The universe is both real and unreal. It is real because it is a manifestation of consciousness, but it is unreal in the sense that it is not absolute and eternal like consciousness itself.

People's approach is more practical, and they stick to the reality of the world, they take it as real. That is why there is all the confusion.

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.

In Atmic-awareness, the universe in which we exist and Soul are one in essence.

The look of an object will depend upon the medium through which the observer views it. In fact, our mental and intellectual conditions determine the object (three states), observed and experienced. The commoner viewing the world will see differently from a Gnani viewing the same world. Each one interprets the world that they see in terms of their existing knowledge. The commoner sees everything based on the ego, therefore, he sees the world in which he exists as a reality, whereas a Gnani sees everything as consciousness and he is fully aware that, there is no second thing that exists other than the Soul or consciousness (subject).

Thus, all objective observation has to be bifurcated to realize the ultimate truth, which is beyond form, time, and space.

Only from the dualistic perspective, do the changes take place. From the non-dualistic perspective, there are no changes.

Those who believe in the dualistic world as a reality feel that knowledge changes from time to time, but they must realize their knowledge is limited to form time, and space whereas Self-knowledge is the knowledge of the beyond the form, time, and space.

Change is possible only in ignorance. Ignorance is the cause of experiencing the illusory world in which we exist as a reality.

Consciousness is the cause of the world in which we exist and it, itself is uncaused.

The universe in which we exist is dependent on consciousness for its existence but the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness, is independent.

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

Only within the illusion do the changes take place, the illusory changes within the illusion are bound to be an illusion.

In Atmic reality, consciousness alone is real and eternal. Thus, the knowledge of the eternal will be always eternal.

The intellectual knowledge based on form, time, and space is bound to change from time to time as science progresses in its dualistic inventions.

Consciousness is ever-changeless because it is a formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.

Whatever takes form as the duality is false. Only the nondual consciousness endures. When you understand the truth, beyond form, time, and space, the duality will never be a reality again.

For consciousness is infinite, within and without, like a mirror, and the image in a mirror. Consciousness is everywhere, filling all things and flowing through the dualistic illusion forever.

Consciousness is like a lamp that lights up a theatre and reveals both a dancer and a stage.

Ignorance is the cause of experiencing the world as a reality. The world in which we exist is a dualistic illusion.

The ‘Self’ is hidden within the dualistic illusion and it is without the dualistic illusion. :~ Santthosh Kumaar
