Some Gurus propagate to be the perfect changeless Light – how can you become changeless light when your existence is illumined by the Soul, the eternal light. Realize the Self is not you but the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.
That is why Buddha said: ~ “Believe nothing because a wise man said it, Believe nothing because it is generally held. Believe nothing because it is written. Believe nothing because it is said to be divine. Believe nothing because someone else said it. But believe only what you, yourself judge to be true
Swami Vivekananda:~“The wicked are always looking for defects. Flies come and seek for the ulcer, and bees come only for the honey in the flower. Do not follow the way of the fly but that of the bee.
If you are the truth seeker then you are the bee, follow the way of the bee to taste the nectar of Advaita.
Bhagavan Buddha: - There are only two mistakes one can make along the road to truth: not going all the way... and not starting.
You are not the witness (Soul) because you belong to the witnessed (world). Do not get fooled by the ornamental words.
You have nothing to do with the Soul because the Self is not you but the ‘Self is the Soul, which is the cause of the world in which you exist and it, itself is uncaused.
Your emotions and sentimental mentality keep you in the domain of ignorance permanently.
If you are seeking truth then it is time to come out of your emotions. You have become a victim of your own emotions. No physical Guru can give you Gnana. You have to walk your own path.
Swami Vivekananda: ~Jñāna Yoga is divided into three parts:~
First:- hearing the truth--that the Atman is the only reality and that everything else is Maya.
Second:- reasoning upon this philosophy from all points of view. \
Third:- giving up all further argumentation and realizing the truth. This realization comes from being certain that Brahman is real and everything else is unreal.
Swami Vivekananda said:~ "The Vedas teach that the Soul is divine, only held in the bondage of matter; perfection will be reached when this bond will burst, and the word they use for it is, therefore, Mukthi - freedom, freedom from the bonds of imperfection, freedom from death and misery."
Remember:~
The Advaitic truth is very simple, but it is very difficult to grasp because of ignorance. You have to only realize the world in which you exist is created out of a single clay. And that single clay is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.
Thus, you and your body and the world in which you exist are nothing but consciousness because they are merely an illusion created out of consciousness. A perfect understanding of ‘what is what’ is needed.
A Gnani can point at the sky, but the seeing of the star is the seeker's own work. .:~Santthosh Kumaar
