Realize God in truth. What you believe and worship as God is not God in truth according to your own scriptures.+

Realize God in truth. What you believe and worship as God is not God in truth according to your own scriptures.

Truth seekers do not belong to any religion. They are more concerned with truth rather than religion.

Religion does not own the truth because they are based on the false self and false idea of God.

Even their own scriptures say God is the Spirit they do not believe because they have been made to believe something else as God.

Bible says: ~ “God is a Spirit, and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. (John 4:24)

God is the Supreme Spirit. The Spirit is the root element of the universe.

The Spirit is present in the form of the Soul, the Self. The Soul is present in the form of consciousness.

From the Spirit, the universe comes into existence. In the Spirit, the universe resides. And into the Spirit, the universe is dissolved. The Spirit is the parent of all that is there.

Thus, mentally hold on to the Spirit the real God, and drop what is not God in truth.

You are being conditioned by the religious myth which has made you a non-thinker. Come out of the religious myth by realizing God in truth.

Rig Veda: ~ 'Prajnanam Brahma'- Consciousness is the ultimate reality or Brahman or God in truth.

God in truth is the Atman, the Self. Atman is present in the form of consciousness.

Do not accept any other God other than Atman not worship other than Atman.

Let these words be inscribed in your subconscious.

Nothing is real but God. Nothing Matters but love for God in truth. God in truth is everywhere and in everything.

God in truth is hidden by the illusory universe. God in truth alone is and all else is an illusion.

Yajurveda – chapter- 32:~ God is Supreme Spirit.

Vedas and Upanishads confirm God is the Soul, the Self is present in the form of the Spirit or consciousness.

Thus, hold on to the Spirit the real God, the Atma, and drop what is not God in truth.

If God is a Spirit, then how does man know God created the world? There is no proof. If man had seen God creating the world, he could admit it, but how could he have seen God before he came into existence? (i.e. were created).

Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana is knowledge of the Real God, Atma, or the Soul or the Self.

God is everywhere; try to see God by realizing the world in which you exist is nothing but an illusion created out of od in truth. God in truth is Advaita.

Religious people see different ideas of God.

Religion concocted God to suit the mindset of the ignorant populace, owing to the time and the persons, according to their readiness to listen and understand.

The truth seekers have to leave all this religious baggage and follow the Atmic path. That means to know God is Atma, realize God, and become one with God, which is the Atma, the innermost Self.

The religions that are being followed by the ignorant crowd are not the real teachings that the Vedas gave. The priests have altered and adulterated by introducing many non~Vedic mythological Gods, scriptures rituals, dogmas, and superstitions and buried the one and only Vedic God (Atma), in the cemetery of falsehood.

If you seek the truth you shall find it. If you start clearing the debris covering the truth, you shall the truth will start revealing to you.

The God is Spirit. The Spirit is present in the form of consciousness.

Everything is consciousness. All the moments are within the dualistic illusion. Whatever happens within the dualistic illusion is bound to be an illusion created out of consciousness.

Consciousness alone is real and all else is merely an illusion.

There is no God in the dualistic illusion (world) because the dualistic illusion is created out of God in truth, which is present in the form of the Spirit or consciousness.

Thus, God in truth alone is real and eternal. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar 

In Advaita (non-duality) there can be no place for an individual, personal gods, and the universe.+

All the orthodox Advaitins indulge and immerse themselves in a ritualistic-oriented lifestyle and follow the path of karma and Upasana which is meant for lower and middling intellect and not for realizing the Advaitic truth.

Many chose these orthodox scholars as their gurus. But these gurus are good to learn the conceptual Advaita meant for those Orthodox who believe their conduct-oriented lifestyle leads to Moksha [liberation]. the religious-based Advaita is not the means to acquire Self–knowledge or nondual wisdom.

Those who are seeking the truth have to do their own homework in order to acquire Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.

That is why Sage Sankara said:~ Talk as much philosophy as you like, worship as many gods as you please, observe ceremonies, and sing devotional hymns, but liberation will never come, even after a hundred aeons, without realizing the Oneness.

Remember:~

In Advaita (non-duality) there can be no place for an individual, personal gods, and the universe.

Sage Sankara’s Supreme Brahman is impersonal, Nirguna (without Gunas or attributes), Nirakara (formless), Nirvisesha (without special characteristics), immutable, eternal, and Akarta (non-agent). It is above all needs and desires. It is always the Witnessing Subject. It can never become an object as it is beyond the reach of the senses. Brahman is non-dual, one without a second. It has no other besides it. It is destitute of difference, either external or internal. Brahman cannot be described because the description implies a distinction. Brahman cannot be distinguished from any other than It. In Brahman, there is not distinction between substance and attribute. Sat-Chit-Ananda constitutes the very essence or Svarupa of Brahman, and not just Its attributes. The Nirguna Brahman of Sage Sankara is impersonal.

Isa Upanishads indicates that: ~ “ By worshipping Gods and Goddesses and going to the world of Gods after death is of no use. The time one spends in ritualistic practices is wasted; one can spend the same time moving forward toward Self-knowledge, which is the main goal. One cannot reach the non-dual destination by glorifying God and Goddesses and by doing that, one goes deeper and deeper into darkness. It surely indicates the fact that the seeker of truth has to drop worshiping God and Goddess in order to get Self-knowledge.

Ish Upanishad says: ~ people who do not try to attain Self-knowledge. They are, in a real sense, committing suicide, for what can be worse than being a slave to sense enjoyment, completely oblivious of the real purpose of life, which is to be one’s, own master?

Remember:~

With Knowledge of the Soul, the Self Self, Ignorance will entirely disappear, leaving no room for duality.

Whenever the seeker finds leisure time he should think of the Soul to such an extent that there remains no room for any other thought except the Soul's continual remembrance until the Soul wakes up from its sleep of ignorance. This should be done with 100 percent earnestness.

As long as there is the sense of "I' and "mine' within us, there can be no ‘Self’-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.

When one says 'I' or me' and "mine' he automatically identifies the ‘Self’ with his body. This shows that he is ignorant of the real ‘Self’. The Soul is the real 'Self' hidden by the 'I'.

The Soul or consciousness is without the division of form, time, and space. Consciousness is the cause of the universe and it itself’ is uncaused.

The sign of an ignorant person is in the way he uses the words "I'. He says: "I am so and so. I own this much property,' and so on.

Thus, he always remains ignorant without realizing that ‘I’ itself’ is ignorance.

The ‘I’ is not limited to the physical body because ‘I’ is the whole universe.

Therefore, without realizing what this ‘I’ is, ignorance will prevail as reality? If ignorance prevails as a reality then form, time and space will prevail as a reality.

If form, time, and space remain as a reality then birth, life, death, and the world will prevail as reality.

If birth, life, death, and the world prevail as a reality then duality will prevail as a reality.

If duality prevails as reality then the three states prevail as a reality. Thus, the seeker needs a perfect understanding of ‘what is what’ in order to come out of the prison of ignorance. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar

Those who are stuck up with the reality of the world are unfit to realize the Self hidden by the illusory universe or Maya.+

Your life within the world is a reality within the domain of ignorance. Those who are stuck up with the reality of the world are unfit to realize the Self hidden by the illusory universe or Maya.

Katha Upanishad says: ~ This Atman is attained by him alone whom It chooses. (II -23-P-20)

Thus, those who have taken the path of wisdom are chosen ones. The chosen one will get the grace of the Soul, the inner Sage.

The path of wisdom is the soulcentric path, whereas all other paths are egocentric. All egocentric paths lead to hallucinations.

Discussion based on the ego (you) has no value in the non-dualistic discussion. The judgment based on ego is dualistic.

The man who possesses the highest intellect can grasp Advaita, by merely hearing the truth mentioned and will grasp it.

The Soul, the Self reveals ‘what is real’ and ‘what is unreal” when the seeker is receptive and ready.

To argue with a person who has renounced the use of reason is like injecting medicine into a corpse.

Life within the domain of form, time, and space is purposeless because form, time, and space are merely an illusion. Thus, the purpose of life is a reality with a dualistic illusion.

The dualistic illusion is created out of single stuff. That single stuff is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.

From the standpoint of the Soul, the Self, there is no purpose in life because there is no second thing that exists other than the Soul, which is the ever-formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.

Only religious people propagate the purpose of life because they hold the experience of birth, life, death, and the world as a reality whereas the Soul, the Self is birthless and deathless because it is ever nondual.

Life within the domain of form, time, and space is a mixture of pain and pleasure. From a nondualistic perspective, life has no purpose at all.

Life within the dualistic illusion has its own end whereas reality has no beginning and no end because it is a formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.

The moment you realize the ‘Self’, not you, you will realize, what the ultimate reality is all about.

The illusion has no purpose at all because it is merely a dualistic illusory appearance. The dualistic illusion is present in the form of the world in which you exist.

Ignorance is the cause of experiencing the dualistic illusion as a reality. When ignorance vanishes the dualistic illusion will not prevail as a reality.

Until one has the conviction that, he is an individual, separate from the world, and the world existed prior to him, and he is born with it, he will remain in ignorance of the reality of his true existence.

Till this conviction is there it is impossible to grasp the Advaitic truth because his views and judgments are based on the physical Self (ego) with the physical world (waking).

Individuality is a reality within the waking experience, but the waking experience itself is a falsehood.

Thus, holding the view as an individual within the false experience is leading to a hallucination.

The waking experience is a parallel dream, and the dream is a parallel waking experience.:~Santthosh Kumaar

Sage Sankara was criticized for his views on Maya (illusion) without understanding his views.+

Sage Sankara is one of the greatest geniuses of all time. This world owes him a deep debt of gratitude. He not only consolidated the classical values of life but also spiritual wisdom. 

Sage Sankara was an independent thinker. Sage Sankara’s Advaitic wisdom has not been taken seriously by many in India because most of the followers of Sage Sankara are religious orthodox.

Sage Sankara is the only Sage who has final authority on the Advaitic truth. The Advaitic truth is rational truth and scientific truth without dogmas.

Unfortunately, few philosophers in the world are as misunderstood and misinterpreted as Sage Sankara. Ironically, most of the harm came from his admirers and followers of Advaitic orthodoxy because they propagated rituals as a means to attain lower knowledge which is meant for those who believed in the physical existence (universe or waking) as a reality.

Sage Sankara was criticized for his views on Maya (illusion) without understanding his views.

Sage Sankara said: ~

(1) Brahman (Atman) is real.

(2) The universe is unreal,

(3) Brahman is the universe.

He did not stop at the second because the third explains the other two. It signifies that the universe is real if perceived as the ‘Self’ and unreal if perceived as apart from the Self. Hence Maya or illusion and reality are one and the same.

Realists criticize the concept of illusion without understanding it. He said:~

(1) Consciousness (Atman) is real

(2) The universe or mind is unreal

(3) Consciousness is the universe because the universe is merely an illusion created out of consciousness.

One need not stop at the second because the third explains the other two. It signifies that the universe is real if perceived as the Self (Atman or consciousness) and unreal if perceived as apart from the Self (consciousness). Hence illusion and reality are one and the same because both are one in essence.

Realizing the essence, which is consciousness as the Self, is Self-Realization or Truth-Realization of God- Realization. Sage Sankara‘s declaration is the rational truth, scientific truth, and also ultimate truth.

Remember:~

The Advaitic orthodoxy is dualistic and it is not the means to acquire Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana. Advaitic orthodoxy is meant for the ignorant mass that is unfit to grasp the highest truth. Thus, the Advaitic orthodoxy is nothing to do with the ultimate truth or Brahman. Those who have chosen the Atmic path have to discard orthodoxy in order to get the pure essence of Advaita.

Sage Sri Sankara disagrees with Buddhists who say, there is nothing - a nonentity. Sage Sri, Sankara believes there is some reality, even though things are not what they appear to be. If one knows the truth, he will know what to do to find inspiration for action. The seeker of truth‘s subject is to know what is it that is Real.

Buddhism says ~ “All things are illusory and nothing exists. However, Sage  Sankara avers that it is not so. It says that the universe, of course,  is illusory, but there is Brahman (consciousness), that exists forming the very substratum of all things (illusion or universe)”.

In the context of Advaita Vedanta: ~ Jagat (the world) is not different from Brahman; however, Brahman is different from Jagat

It has not been possible to preach Advaitic Truth entirely free from the settings of dualistic weakness it has not been more operative and useful to mankind at large because only few will be able to grasp and realize it.

'To realize the Advaitic Truth a freer and fuller scope the seeker has to realize the form, time and space are one in essence. And that essence is the consciousness. And the Soul, the  Self is present in the form of consciousness.

To realize the Advaitic truth the seeker has to be free from all superstitions and orthodox contaminations. The seeker  dedicated himself  to acquiring Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana alone: ~Santthosh Kumaar

Until you hold ‘Self’ as you will remain in ignorance. You are the false self within the dualistic illusion (Maya).+

Q: ~ "You will not get bliss because you are not the Soul, the Self. Nature of the Soul is Advaitic bliss or awareness." I'm confused, I was considering myself the 'I', the Soul, the Self. I request clarity.

Santthosh Kumaar:~ You are thinking you are the Self. Remember, the Self is not you but the Self is the Soul, which is present in the form of the consciousness.

Until you hold ‘Self’ as you will remain in ignorance. You are the false self within the dualistic illusion (Maya).

The Soul, the ‘Self’ is hidden by the dualistic illusion (I). It is hidden by the dualistic illusion because the dualistic illusion is created out of the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.

You and your experience of the world is nothing but an illusion created out of the Soul, the Self, which is present in the form of consciousness. The nature of the Soul is awareness (bliss).

In Self-awareness, there is no difference between you and your experience of the world because they too are nothing but consciousness. The Consciousness itself is God. Self-awareness is God-awareness. God- awareness itself is Advaitic Bliss.

Advaitic Bliss is not yogic bliss. Yogic bliss is an individual experience whereas Advaitic bliss is not an experience but reality. In Advaitic bliss the Soul, the 'Self' remains in its own awareness in the midst of the dualistic illusion.

Meher Baba said: ~ God is your innermost Self. Do not search for God outside of you. Let these words be inscribed in your heart. Nothing is real but God. Nothing Matters but love for God. God is everywhere and does everything. God is beyond us and is everything. God alone is and all else is an illusion.

Thus, it is necessary for the seeker to realize ‘what God is supposed to be in actuality then only you will realize the universe is merely an illusion created out of God in truth.

Meher Baba: ~ "There is no higher or lower goal. There is only one goal, Self-Realization."

Meher Baba: ~ “When the reality appears this ignorance which one thinks as reality becomes unreal.

The ‘I’ is not the root of all the appearance because the ‘I’ itself is an appearance. Only ignorant people say ‘I’ is the root of all appearance.

Those Gurus who propagated the ‘Self’ within the body erred. This mistake has to be rectified in order to realize the Soul, the Self, which is present in the form of consciousness, is the fullness of consciousness.

By emotionally sticking to these ’I’-centric gurus and their teachings you will remain permanently in the domain of ignorance.

Because of ignorance, you think you are an individual separate from the world and the world that existed prior to you, you are born in it later on. The ‘I’ is inborn ignorance cause of experiencing the world in which you exist as a reality whereas the world in which you exist is a dualistic illusion.

Whatever belongs to a dualistic illusion is bound to be an illusion. So, your experience of birth, life, death, and the world is bound to be an illusion.

Everyone is holding some teaching or teacher or their accepted truth as a yardstick. All the accumulated egocentric knowledge is inadequate or useless in unfolding the mystery of the mind or universe.

The ‘I’ is inborn samskara or conditioning, because of this inborn samskara or conditioning one has accepted the ‘I’ as the ‘‘Self’’, he is ignorant of the fact that the ‘I’ itself’ is the cause of ignorance. Because of this ‘I’ he has accepted illusion as a reality. Therefore, there is a need to realize ‘what is this ‘I’?’ - in actuality. Without knowing ‘what is this ‘I’?’ in actuality it is impossible to unfold the hidden truth which is beyond form, time, and space.

Until you hold the ‘Self ‘as the ‘I’ you will never be able to get Self-realization. ‘I’ hides the Soul, which is the innermost Self. ‘

'I’ is ignorance.

‘I’ is the duality.

‘I’ is the form, time, and space.

‘I’ is the universe.

‘I’ is the waking.

‘I’ is the dream.

‘I’ is the illusion.

‘I’ is the experience of birth, life, death, and the world.

But

Without the ‘I’ there is no ignorance.

Without the ‘I’ there is no duality.

Without the ‘I’ there is no form, time and space

Without the ‘I’ there is no universe.

Without the ‘I’ there is no waking.

Without the ‘I’ there is no dream.

Without the ‘I’ there is no illusion.

Without the ‘I’ there is no experience of birth, life, death, and the world.

The ‘I’ hides the Soul, the ‘Self. The ‘I’ hides the truth.

That is why Ashtavakra Gita 16:10:~ If you desire liberation, but you still say ‘I,’, If you feel the ‘Self’ is the ‘I’, you are not a wise man or a seeker. You are simply a man who suffers.

Bhagvad Gita: ~ ‘The permanent is always there, only the transient ‘I’ comes and goes. (2.18)

It is time to discard the ‘I’. Never use the word ‘I’ or I AM for the Self. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar

Only through the Advaitic wisdom of Sage Sankara, this ignorance will be wiped out.+

 'I’ is the disease caused by the virus called ignorance. Only through the Advaitic wisdom of Sage Sankara, this ignorance will be wiped out.

Sage Sankara goes on to say: ~A sickness of not cured by saying the word “medicine.” You must take the medicine. Liberation does not come by merely saying the word “Brahman.” Brahman must be realized. Until you allow this apparent universe to dissolve from your consciousness until you have realized Brahman, how can you find liberation just by saying the word Brahman? The result is merely noise.

Until a man has destroyed his enemies and taken possession of the splendor and wealth of the kingdom, he cannot become a king by simply saying “I am a king.”

A buried treasure is not uncovered by merely uttering the words: “Come forth.” You must follow the right directions, dig, remove the stones and earth from above it, and then make it, your own. In the same way, the pure truth of the Atman, which is buried under Maya and the effects of Maya, can be reached by Self-knowledge but never by perverted arguments.

Remember:~

The Advaitic wisdom of Sage Sankara does not need the support of any Scripture or Revelation like the Veda. For it is based, not upon the varying theological fancies, which are as numerous as the sands of the sea, but upon reason, the common heritage of all mankind, irrespective of color or creed or clime.

Scriptures are not needed in the pursuit of truth. Even the Upanishads and the sages of truth declare the same.

The ultimate truth has to be ascertained without the scriptures by realizing the Self is neither the waking entity not the dream entity but the Self is a Soul which is present in the form of consciousness.

In the realm of the truth, form, time, and space are created out of single stuff. That single stuff is consciousness. Realizing the single stuff as the ultimate truth is Self-realization or truth realization. To realize this truth, there is no need for the scriptures.

The ultimate truth has to be realized first then only it is possible to know what the scriptures are saying.

Scriptures are being added from time to time. This process will go on. There is the final authority among them? One contradicts the other: duality reigns supreme.

I quote Scriptural citation only after the verification of reality and proved truth, to point out that the scriptures teach the same thing. If one quotes them before having demonstrated the truth, then it is scholasticism.

Self-knowledge cannot be attained by the study of the scriptures and intellectual understanding or by bookish knowledge. Therefore, there is no use in studying the scriptures and other scriptures to acquire nondual wisdom. That is why Bhagavan Buddha rejected the scriptures, and even Sage Sankara indicated that the ultimate truth lies beyond religion, the concept of God, and the scriptures.

There is only one Reality to be known, the same for all seekers, but the ways to it, are hidden by religion. Self-discovery is the only way, towards the non-dual Absolute without any religious doctrines, which will help the seekers to unfold the mystery of the illusion in which we all are searching for the truth of our true existence.

That is why Sage Sankara: ~ VC-56- Neither by Yoga, nor by Sankhya, nor by good work, nor by learning, but by the realization of one's identity with Brahman is Liberation possible, and by no other means.

58. Loud speech consisting of a shower of words, the skill in expounding the Scriptures, and likewise erudition - these merely bring on a little personal enjoyment to the scholar but are no good for Liberation.

59. The study of the Scriptures is useless so long as the highest Truth is unknown, and it is equally useless when the highest Truth has already been known.

60. The Scriptures consisting of many words are a dense forest that merely causes the mind to ramble. Hence, men of wisdom should earnestly set about knowing the true nature of the Self.

61. For one who has been bitten by the serpent of Ignorance, the only remedy is the knowledge of Brahman. Of what avail are the Vedas and (other) Scriptures, Mantras (sacred formulae), and medicines to such a one?

62. A disease does not leave off if one simply utters the name of the medicine, without taking it; (similarly) without direct realization one cannot be liberated by the mere utterance of the word Brahman.

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.

64. Without killing one’s enemies, and possessing oneself of the splendor of the entire surrounding region, one cannot claim to be an emperor by merely saying, ‘I am an emperor’.

65. As a treasure hidden underground requires (for its extraction) competent instruction, excavation, the removal of stones and other such things lying above it, and (finally) grasping, but never comes out by being (merely) called out by name, so the transparent Truth of the Self, which is hidden by Maya and its effects, is to be attained through the instructions of a knower of Brahman, followed by reflection, meditation and so forth, but not through perverted arguments.

66. Therefore the wise should, as in the case of disease and the like, personally strive by all the means in their power to be free from the bondage of ignorance.

Then there is no need for the scriptures, religion, and idea of God. One has to be more rational to realize the Advaitic truth, which is the ultimate truth or scientific truth. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar

Sage Sankara says Atman is Brahman that is Atman is God in truth whereas the orthodox Advaitins believe and worship in non-Vedic Gods barred by Vedas.+

Sage Sankara was an independent thinker. Sage Sankara’s Advaitic wisdom has not been taken seriously by many in India because most of the followers of Sage Sankara are religious orthodox.

Advaitic wisdom does not begin with the ultimate truth. The ultimate truth has to be proved, not assumed. Hence, so-called philosophers who take Brahman for granted are not philosophers at all.

Lots of Advaitin scholars will teach that all is yourself but none of them can show that this is so, none has analyzed it scientifically, and none can prove it. Rational proof is required so that one arrives at knowing the ultimate truth or Brahman i.e. Gnana.

Advaitin scholars' knowledge is based on dogma, parrotism, and repetition of what they read in scripture. Authoritarianism merely assumes as true what another says, but what has yet to be proved.

Sage Sankara endeavored towards establishing the Vedic religion overthrowing Buddhism. But even he was not able to avoid the influence of Buddhism. The influence of the revolutionary atmosphere of Buddhism has reappeared in the Advaita of Sage Sankara. His inability to revive the Vedic religion that flourished before the Buddhist revolution in its pure form is discernible.

The Advaitic orthodoxy is nothing to do with the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth. Advaitic orthodoxy is the path of ignorance meant for the ignorant populace which is incapable of grasping the truth hidden by the dualistic illusion (world).

Sage Sankara says Atman is Brahman that is Atman is God in truth whereas the orthodox Advaitins believe and worship in non-Vedic Gods barred by Vedas.

Sage Sankara gave religious, ritual, or dogmatic instruction to the mass, but pure philosophy only to the few who could rise to it. Hence the interpretation of his writings by commentators is often confusing because they mix up the two viewpoints. Thus, they may assert that ritual is a means of realizing Brahman, which is absurd.

Sage Sankara’s Supreme Brahman (God in truth) is impersonal, Nirguna (without Gunas or attributes), Nirakara (formless), Nirvisesha (without special characteristics), immutable, eternal, and Akarta (non-agent). It is above all needs and desires. It is always the Witnessing Subject. It can never become an object as it is beyond the reach of the senses. Brahman is non-dual, one without a second. It has no other besides it. It is destitute of difference, either external or internal. Brahman cannot be described because the description implies a distinction. Brahman cannot be distinguished from any other than It. In Brahman, there is not distinction between substance and attribute. Sat-Chit-Ananda constitutes the very essence or Svarupa of Brahman and not just Its attributes. The Nirguna Brahman of Sage  Sankara is impersonal.

Sage Sankara gave out what was of most use to the greatest number of people. Therefore, in the commentaries on the Upanishads, such as the famous Manduka Upanishad, he gave the highest non-dual message of the identity of Atman and Brahman, revitalizing the philosophy and practice of Advaita, while in the commentaries on the Brahmasūtra he gave lesser teaching, positing both higher and lower Maya and higher and lower Brahman (Ishvara) to explain creation for those of lesser intellects until they were ready for the highest truth.

Only through Self -knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana negation of duality is possible. The Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness, is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth.

Remember:~

No Guru or yogi of the past and present teach the Advaitic wisdom of Sage Sankara. They preach the cocktail of different ideologies, theories, religions, and philosophies in the name of Advaitic wisdom

Advaitic Truth is very simple. It is very difficult to realize because it is lost in the dualistic knowledge we inherited, collected from different sources, different masters’ different gurus, different philosophies, different ideologies, different books, and scriptures. All this accumulated knowledge is a mere hill of Garbage.

Nothing is needed other than realizing the knowledge of single stuff. The single stuff is the cause of the world in which we exist. And that single stuff itself is causeless. That single stuff is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.

The Soul is the Self. Knowledge of the Soul, the Self, is Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana. Atma Gnana is knowledge of God.

Realizing God in this very life is your goal. God- realization is real worship.

A perfect understanding of ‘what is what’ is needed. Only an intense urge to know the truth, humility sincerity, and patience are the only qualifications to realize God in this very life and in this very world.

All your religious-based accumulated knowledge will block you from realizing the truth, which is beyond form, time, and space. Be more rational in your thinking.

Your religious conditioning will not allow you to cross the domain of the ‘I’. Till you hold all the religious ideas the Soul will remain in the cage of ignorance.

Drop all your accumulated knowledge drop all the physical Gurus, the Soul the inner Guru, is waiting for you to take the first step for you to realize there are no more steps.

You will realize you, your body, and your experience of the world is nothing but consciousness. Thus, you will realize that God (Soul) is the fullness of consciousness. Everything is God nothing but God.

Do not waste time attending sermons and Satsang. Real Satsanga is reflecting on Soul, which is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth.

All my writings are an inner revelation to show the truth hidden under the garbage of religion and theories, beliefs, and ideology. There is no need to condemn religion, theories, beliefs, and ideology, but the seeker’s aim is to drop what is not the truth and accept only the truth beyond form, time, and space. Whatever belongs to form, time and space is not the truth because the nature of the Soul is formless,

You may find it difficult at first as you go on reading the post your subconscious will start dropping the dualistic egocentric knowledge and start accepting the Soul-centric Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.

It takes time for the seeker to gain the perfect understanding of ‘what is the truth’ and ‘’what is untruth’.

As you raft upon which you cross the swift river to get to the other side; once you are on the other side of the shore; there is no longer any need to carry the raft. The far shore is the reality when you reach it, you can see quite clearly that there was never any river at all.

The Soul, the inner Sage will guide you to get rid of ignorance.

Everyone’s inner work is on. Until a man is ripe to receive Self-knowledge, he will not be able to understand what I am saying.

Even ONE may find it difficult at first as he goes on reading the post his subconscious will start dropping the dualistic egocentric knowledge and start accepting the Soul-centric Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
