Self-Realization is the direct realization of the ultimate truth, in contrast with traditional paths, which are indirect.+

Self-Realization is the direct realization of the ultimate truth, in contrast with traditional paths, which are indirect.

All the other paths cannot lead to the ultimate destination because they are based on the false ‘self(ego), which they hold as the real ‘Self’ and false experience(waking state) as reality.

Self-realization is not possible by doing or practicing anything, but it is possible only by realizing the Self is not you but the ‘Self’ is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.

Self-realization cannot be attained through the study of the Vedas, or religious rituals, ceremonies, or intelligence investigations.

Self-realization is not easy because you refuse to accept the ‘Self is not within you because some guru said so because it is generally held because it is written in the holy book because someone else said it because you refuse to accept anything other than your accepted truth.

You indulge in what is not needed to unfold the mystery of the ‘Self’ which is hidden within the form, time, and space. Your stubborn attitude blocks you from ‘Self-realization.

Mentally reduce the world in which you exist as consciousness by realizing the world in which you exist is nothing but an illusion created out of consciousness.

To realize that God in truth is hidden by the illusory world in which you exist, a perfect understanding of 'what is what' is needed.

Why you are struggling to realize this simple truth. There is no need to go from one mountain to another, one Guru to another, one Ashram to another, and read book after book.

Realize the world, in which you exist is nothing but the consciousness. Without consciousness, the world, in which you exist ceases to exist. Thus, there no second thing exists other than consciousness.

Thus, everything is consciousness whether it exists as the world, in which you exist or without the world, in which you exist.

Realizing consciousness as the ultimate truth is truth- realization. Truth realization itself is Self-realization. Self-realization itself is God-realization.

A permanent view of the world as an illusion can come only after Soul-centric reasoning; such knowledge cannot change.

Where the seeker who is sufficiently sharp could grasp the unreal nature of the world by Soul-centric reasoning alone.

To know the whole truth, one must know the whole universe, otherwise, he gets only a half-truth.

Renouncing the worldly life and accepting sannyasa or monkhood means incapacity to think deeper, impotency to inquire and reason.

People speak of getting rid of conditioning or samskara, but they are unaware of the fact that the universe in which they exist is the product of the inborn samskara or conditioning.

Ignorance is the cause of the inborn samskara or conditioning which is present as ‘I’ or ‘I AM’.

The real Moksha or freedom is to realize the fact that ‘I’ consciousness is mere physical awareness. Physical awareness is present in form, time, and space.

Form, time, and space are present in the form of the mind.

The mind is present in the form of the universe.

The universe appears as a waking or dream (duality) and disappears as deep sleep (nonduality)

Physical awareness is not Self-awareness.

Self–awareness raises when the formless Soul, the Self remains aware of its own non-dual true nature.

Ashtavakra Gita: ~ “Truly the dualism is the root of suffering. There is no other remedy for it than the realization that all this we see is unreal and that the Soul, the Self, is the one stainless reality, consisting of the consciousness”. 2:16

The sun, the moon, the stars, planets shine because of the Soul or Spirit. The Soul shines and all things else shine as a result. Everything in the universe reflects but that light of the Soul which is present in the form of consciousness. Merely knowing the truth is not enough to escape from the tangle of illusion.

The mind is in the form of the universe. From the standpoint of the Soul the Self, the universe is merely an illusion. The illusion arises from ignorance.

Enlightenment comes with detachment from the illusion by realizing the experience of form, time and space are one in essence.

Ashtavakra Gita: ~ “The Self is pure awareness though through ignorance the ‘Self has imagined itself to have additional attributes. By continually reflecting like this, the Self’s dwelling place is in the unimagined. 2:17

Ashtavakra Gita: ~ “For the 'Self' there is neither bondage nor liberation. The illusion has lost its basis and ceased. Indeed all this exists in the Self though ultimately it does not even exist in the Self. 2:18

By saying I know the truth; I know Brahman is not wisdom.

The Truth is found only in the Unity of understanding, which is the knowledge of both the matter and spirit. That is the matter and the spirit, are one in essence. And that essence is the Spirit, which is present in the form of the Soul or consciousness. : ~Santthosh Kumaar 

Religious people strongly believe their inherited religion cannot be wrong because they inherited it from their forefathers.+

Religion is not about evidence but based on blind belief or blind faith. So, empty assertions construe the definition of logic, evidence & science to the believers.

God exists because religion says so. Religious people strongly believe their inherited religion cannot be wrong because they inherited it from their forefathers. 

Religious people think their religious Guru cannot be wrong because he is the head of some tradition or Parampara. 

Following the ideas propagated by their inherited religion, most religious people live in.

Religious people believe that God is always watching without knowing what God suppose to be in truth. 

If one already knows what God is supposed to be, then there’s no point in studying any scripture or holy book.  

Religious people prepare themselves for Mukthi by indulging in rituals and prayers. Fearing God is the root of ignorance. 

The seeker of truth has to try his best by utilizing his time to realize God in truth in this very life. 

God in truth is present in the form of the Spirit. god in truth is the source from which the illusory universe emanates.  

Consciousness is God is God in truth. God in truth is Self-evident. It is not established by extraneous proof. It is not possible to deny God in truth because God is the very essence of the one who denies Godin truth. God in truth is the basis of all kinds of knowledge, presuppositions, and proofs.

Remember:~

God in truth is not created by any material.  God in truth is not similar to any God propagated by religion in the illusory universe. God in truth cannot be proven logically. 

God in truth is not the same God religious people believe in and worship. Every religion propagates different ideas of god.  Religious people worship different ideas of gods inherited by the religion they belong to. 

God in truth is not an object but God in truth is the subject The subject needs an object to exist.  The object is created out of the subject. The object is the universe and the subject is Consciousness, which is God in truth. God in truth is infinite and ever nondual.  God is the first and was not preceded by nonexistence. 

God in truth is not similar to any object in existence God in truth is impersonal without any attributes.   God in truth is one and second, to none. God in truth not similar to anything of the illusory universe or Maya. 

God in truth is existence without form, time, and space. is the only one God in truth is self-evident. God in truth is not established by extraneous proof. It is not possible to deny God because God is the very essence of the one who denies it. God in truth is the basis of all kinds of knowledge, presuppositions, and proofs. God in truth is hidden by the illusory universe in which you exist, God in truth is without the illusory universe in which you exist.

In truth, God is the Supreme Being the One eternal homogeneous essence, indivisible consciousness, and intelligence, which is hidden by the illusory form, time, and space. To which the Sages describe in a variety of ways through diverse words.

It is impossible to deny the existence of God in truth because God in truth is the very essence of the one who denies it.

Remember:~

The attainment of the realization of God in truth is a gradual process. The first step is to make sure what God suppose to be in truth.

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

Do not accept any other God other than the Soul. The Soul is God in truth, Nothing is real but the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. Nothing matters but realizing God in truth. God in truth is everywhere and in everything. Let these words be inscribed in your subconscious.

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

Brahman is merely a word to indicate the ultimate truth or God in truth. The ultimate truth itself is God in truth. :~Santthosh Kumaar

Every religion has its own idea and theory of God. Ignorant people are satisfied with their inherited religion.+

God is one only if God were to be two there will be conflicts. God in truth has to be only one and not triune or incarnate.

God in truth is the only one. God in truth is eternal existence. God in truth neither begets nor was God in truth begotten. There is none like God in truth.

Every religion has its own idea and theory of God. Ignorant people are satisfied with their inherited religion.

People are being conditioned by the religious myth which has made them a non-thinker.

People need to come out of the religious myth by realizing God in truth. The wise seeker of truth doubts religion and starts his pursuit of 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.

Remember:~

Bhagavad Gita: ~ ‘All those whose intelligence has been stolen by material desires, they worship many Gods. (7- Verse -20)

Brihad Upanishad: ~ “If you think there is another entity, whether man or God there is no truth."

Chandogya Upanishad: ~ Sarvam khalvidam brahma ~ all this (universe) is verily Brahman. By following back all of the relative appearances in the world, we eventually return to that from which it is all manifest – the non-dual reality.

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.

As indicated in ISH Upanishads:~By worshipping Gods and Goddesses you will go after death to the world of gods and goddesses. But will that help you? The time you spend there is wasted because if you were not there you could have spent that time moving forward towards ‘Self’-knowledge, which is your goal. In the world of Gods and Goddesses, you cannot do that, and thus you go deeper and deeper into darkness.

Remember:~

Mundaka Upanishad 1:2:8:~ “Remaining in the fold of ignorance and thinking “we are extremely wise and learned,” the fools with boastful nature ramble about like the blind led by the blind alone.”

People got fooled by the myth propagated by religion in the past. Mastering their own scriptures like fools dwelling in darkness, but thinking they are wise and erudite, go round and round, by various tortuous paths, like the blind led by the blind.

Know what suppose to be God in truth. What you believe and worship as God is not God in truth according to your own scriptures.

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 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 God must worship God 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  Athma or the Soul, the Self.

The Athma or  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.

Mentally hold on to the Spirit, which is  God in truth, and drop what is not God in truth.

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

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

Thus, mentally hold on to the Spirit the Athma, which is God in truth, and drop what is not God in truth. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar 

Consciousness means existence.+

 

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

Realizing Athma, which is present in the form of consciousness is the cause of the illusory universe.

You are not you but consciousness; your body is not the body, but consciousness, and the world in which you exist is not the world but consciousness.

Everything known, seen, believed, and experienced by you is nothing but consciousness then what else remains, which is not consciousness.

There is nothing else to realize other than to realize consciousness alone is, everything else is merely an illusion created out of consciousness.

By realizing everything is consciousness, the Advaitic wisdom dawns.

Remember:~

Do not accept any other truth other than consciousness. Consciousness is the ultimate truth. Nothing is real but consciousness. Realize consciousness as the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth. Consciousness is everywhere and in everything. Let these words be inscribed in your subconscious. 

Consciousness is the basis of all animate and inanimate entities and material.

If you are thinking on the same line in a dream the dream becomes unreal when the waking takes place. Similarly, the waking becomes unreal when wisdom dawns. Wisdom dawns when you realize the ‘self’ is not you but the Self is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.

From the standpoint of the Soul, the ‘Self’ ‘your body, and your experience of the world are created out of single stuff. That single stuff is consciousness.

Thus, there is no second thing that exists other than consciousness. Thus, the world in which you exist is nothing but an illusion created out of the Soul, the Self, which is present in the form of consciousness.

Remember:~

Consciousness means existence. The nature of consciousness is non-dualistic awareness. 

The Soul is the Self. The Soul is present in the form of consciousness. No division in consciousness is admissible at any time as it is always one and the same. Even the world in which we exist must be known as false, like the delusion of a snake in a rope.

The Soul is the Self. The Soul is present in the form of consciousness. Consciousness is Self-evident. It is not established by extraneous proof. It is not possible to deny consciousness because it is the very essence of the one who denies it. Consciousness is the basis of all kinds of knowledge, presuppositions, and proofs. Consciousness is the true Self.

Until one thinks of his body as body, ego as ego the universe as the universe, he is then ignorant because he is still in ignorance and he is unaware of the fact that they too are consciousness.

The Soul, the Self is formless and non-dual, one without a second. It has no other besides It. It is destitute of difference, either external or internal. 

The Soul cannot be described because description implies a distinction. The Soul cannot be distinguished from any other than it. In the Soul, there is not a distinction between substance and attribute. Nondualistic awareness constitutes the very essence of the Soul and not just its attributes.

The Soul is impersonal. It becomes a personal person through its association with the three states or illusion.

As through the ignorance of the real nature of the rope, the very rope appears in an instant as a snake, so also does Soul or consciousness appear in the form of the waking or dream without undergoing any change.

There exists no other material cause of this waking or dream except consciousness. Hence, these three states are nothing but an illusion created out of consciousness.

All three states are consciousness, because they arise from consciousness, and sustained by consciousness, and finally, dissolve as consciousness. The idea of the pervaded and the pervading is illusory. When this supreme truth is realized, then there is no room for any distinction between the cause and the effect.

Certainly, there is no manifoldness in consciousness. The non-dual cause being an established fact, how could the three states be different from consciousness, when they are created out of consciousness? : ~Santthosh Kumaar

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
