If you realize the Self is not you but the Soul then you are on the right path.+

If you realize the Self is not you but the Soul then you are on the right path.  If you realize the Soul is the ultimate truth and the universe is an illusion with firm conviction then you have acquired Advaitic Gnana.

If people have believed a false thing over millions of years, the length of time does not prove it true.

When the sky, clouds, and the world in which you exist are made of single clay then there is no second thing that exists, other than that clay. That clay is the Soul, which is formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.

Reality is hidden by the unreality. The world in which we exist hides the truth.  Whatever belongs to you is unreal. The words and thoughts belong to you, not to the Soul, which is the Self.

Whatever has a name and form and attributes and whatever belongs to form, time and space is an illusion. The illusion hides the Spirit, which is God in truth.  The illusion and Spirit are one in essence.  Spirit, the God alone is real and eternal. :~Santthosh Kumaar
