The egocentric paths have nothing to do with the path of truth or wisdom, which is soulcentric.

A deeper self-se–search reveals the Self is not the waking entity or ego but the Self is the Soul, the Self, which is in the form of consciousness then why follow the paths based on the false self.

Only by realizing the form (universe) is formless because form (universe) is made of the formless stuff (Soul) leads one to Self-awareness.

All other paths are based on the ego, which is the false self that holds practical life within the practical world as reality never realizes the truth because they accepted something else as truth and their accepted truth is the greatest hindrance is realizing the ultimate truth.

All egocentric paths are meant for the ignorant people who are incapable of inquiring into the nature of the universe (waking or mind) in which they exist.

It becomes very difficult for people who are incapable of grasping the ultimate truth because of their inherited and inborn conditioning.

The seeker must have the knowledge of the matter (universe or mind) and the spirit (Soul or consciousness).

A seeker of truth has to know somewhere he is going wrong, and it is for the seeker to go on his own and remove all the obstacles.

The greatest hindrance is mixing religion, god, scriptures, and yogic theories. Moreover, attachment to scriptures, personal god, and religious code of conduct keep one permanently in the grip of duality.

Remember;~

As one goes into a deeper investigation finds nothing satisfying in any religion.

The more he learns of any religious doctrine he becomes aware of the fact that religion is not the means for Self-realization because the true ‘Self' is not the form but the true Self is the Soul, which is formless timeless, and spaceless existence.

Religion is based on the false Self (ego) and false experience (universe). Religion takes the false self as the real Self and false experience as reality. Thus whatever is based on the false Self and false experience is bound to be a falsehood.

The obsession with "our sins" having been "washed away by the water of the river would be regarded as evidence of a serious mental illness in an individual within any sane society, but when this is an obsession of millions of people it becomes "religious faith", held by many others to be something that should never be criticized.

It was desperately important for the believers of their belief system for some reason that others shared their beliefs because they assumed that their religious doctrine was literally true, and then justified their beliefs because "God says so in their doctrine ".

It is no use in arguing with someone who has faith in his belief system because for him there can be no possible refutation of what he believes, so rational argument is entirely useless. He clings to his belief so strongly that he makes no distinction between the truth and his belief.

One has to know that a religious God cannot exist without man's existence.

The truth does not depend on the religious gods’ existence but it entirely depends on the Soul, which is the cause of the universe.

Thus, it is foolish to venture into knowing the truth of god's existence without verifying the facts about the true existence.

The seeker has to have the courage to accept the truth and reject the untruth.

Most people will not be able to subscribe to the path of truth because they are sentimentally and emotionally involved with their inherited religion and even if one does he has to overcome all his doubts, confusion, and despair.

These are problematic for the seekers who are from a religious background because of their conditioning and they are made to accept their blind belief or blind faith as the ultimate truth and their interest or insight is not very deep. :~Santthosh Kumar
