You are aware of yourself and the world in which you exist only through the Soul, the Self. The Soul is present in the form of consciousness. The nature of consciousness is awareness.

You are aware of yourself and the world in which you exist only through the Soul, the Self.+
You are the birth entity. You are born in this world in the past, living in this world in the present, and going to die in this world in the future. The world in which you exist appears as a waking experience (duality) and disappears as deep sleep (nonduality).
When you realize the Self is not you but the Self is the Soul then the experience of birth, life, death, and the world, which appeared as waking becomes unreal the same way as the dream becomes unreal when waking takes place.
Whatever you experience as an individual you are experiencing within the domino of the form, time, and space.
From the standpoint of the Soul, the Self, the world in which you exist is a dualistic illusion. if the world in which you exist is a dualistic illusion then your birth, life and death, and the world are bound to be an illusion. The Soul, the Self, which is present in the form of the consciousness is the cause of the dualistic illusion that is real and eternal.
The Soul is the Self. The Soul is present in the form of consciousness. The Soul is the witness consciousness that experiences the action, the actor, and the world of separate things. It is like a light that illuminates everything in a theatre, revealing the master of ceremonies, the guests, and the dancers with complete impartiality. Even when they all depart, the light shines to reveal their absence.
One knows everything within the waking experience is consciousness because the waking experience itself is merely an illusion created out of consciousness. The physical apparatus is absent in deep sleep so one cannot know anything by intuition because there is no duality in deep sleep. This proves that the duality is present only in waking or dream. And also it proves that if there is such a faculty as intuition it must be limited to the physical Self within the physical existence. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
When the inner conviction arises that the Self is not ‘I’ but the Self is the ‘I-less Soul then whatever is based on the ‘I’ is merely an illusion.+
When the inner conviction arises that the Self is not ‘I’ but the Self is the ‘I-less Soul then whatever is based on the ‘I’ is merely an illusion.
The illusion (duality) is created out of single stuff. That single stuff is the Soul which is present in the form of consciousness.
Till you realize you and your world are made of the same stuff and that stuff is the Soul which is present in the form of consciousness, the Soul, the Self remains in the web of form, time, and space.
When the Soul wakes up in its own awareness, the illusory form, time, and space become one with the nature of the Soul.
In Self-awareness, neither you, nor me, nor others, nor the world remain as reality because there is unity in diversity. That is oneness in the midst of the duality.
Thus, you have to realize the fact that, the whole universe in which you exist is made of the single stuff that is very much necessary to realize the Advaitic truth, which is beyond the form, time, and space.
The mind becomes still when ignorance vanishes. Ignorance vanishes when Advaitic wisdom dawns.
When wisdom dawns, then the Soul the Self remains in its own awareness in the midst of the duality. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
The world in which we exist is created out of single stuff. That single stuff is the Spirit.+
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.
The Spirit is Brahman or God in truth. Thus, everything is God. There is no second thing that exists other than God in truth.
The creator and creation is a theory based on the false self within the false experience.
There is neither creation nor creator in the realm of ultimate truth or Brahman. There is no scope for the duality of any sort.
The ultimate conclusion is this there is no second thing that exists other than consciousness. Everything is consciousness. Thus, diversity has no value in light of wisdom.
Thus, recognizing the mind (the illusion or universe or duality) as consciousness in the midst of diversity brings unity in diversity. ~ Santthosh Kumaar

Awakening happens when Soulcentric Gnana dawns.+
For a person who has a firm conviction that he is an individual separate from the world and the world existed prior to him and he is born in it, the Self–realization has no value.
The seeker who is seeking the truth of his true existence has an inner urge and search for the truth of his true existence. The truth reveals the Soul wakes up in its own awareness.
When the man wakes up, then he sees the world that confronts him. When the Soul the Self, wakes up, then the man and his experience of the world become one with the Soul which is present in the form of consciousness.
Awakening is when the Soul wakes up from the sleep of ignorance and remains in its own awareness in the midst of the diversity.
There is unity in diversity when the Soul remains in its own awareness.
Awakening is freedom from experiencing the illusion (the experience of birth, life, death, and the world) as a reality. Awakening happens when Soulcentric Gnana dawns.
Awakening happens when the Soul the Self, witnesses the whole universe in which you exist from a non-dualistic or Advaitic perspective.
From the non-dualistic perspective, you and your experience of the universe are made of the same stuff. That stuff is the Soul which is present in the form of consciousness.
Thus, the Soul or consciousness is the ultimate truth or Brahman. And Brahman is God. Thus, Self-realization is God-realization.
Remember:~
The seeker of truth has to constantly reflect on the subject to get a firm conviction of the truth. The seeker has to reflect on the same truth again and again until it becomes reality.
One needs to constantly, reflect on the subject until he gets a firm conviction of what is what. Words are needed until one gets a firm conviction of ‘what is what.
People need to read and hear the words to think deeply and reach the ultimate end.
My blogs and postings help the seeker to remove the mental blockade, which is blocking his realization. It also helps to dispel all the inborn and inherited conditioning or samskara from the subconscious.
My blogs and postings will help not only as information to move in the right direction to reach the ultimate end of the understanding. They also help as subconscious suggestions, which are very much necessary to establish the non-dualistic reality.
Repeated reading and reflecting on my blogs and postings helps the seeker. My blogs and postings are not any type of teaching or theory.
It only helps the seeker to remove all the obstacles in the path of truth and reach the ultimate end in lesser time and effort. :~ Santthosh Kumaar
Childhood, adulthood, and old age have nothing to do with the Soul, the Self because the invisible Soul is unborn.
When the Soul, the Self, establishes itself in its own awareness, then you and your experience of the world will become one with it.
When the Soul, the Self is not you then what is the use of saying ‘I AM THIS’ OR ‘I AM THAT’.
The Soul or the Spirit is genderless because it is ever formless.
The Soul, the Self is birthless and deathless because it is ever formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.
The Soul, the Self cannot be identified as he or she, thus the physical-based inquiry does not hold water.
To realize the truth beyond form, time, and space the seeker has to drop all the accumulated egocentric knowledge.
Becoming more and more Soulcentric leads the seeker towards Advaitic Self-awareness.:~Santthosh Kumaar
Swami Vivekananda: ~ Creeds and sects have their parts to play, but they are for children, they last but temporarily. Books never make religions, but religions make books.+
Religion is based on form, time, and space. The Soul, the Self belongs to no religion because the Soul is ever formless timeless, and spaceless existence.
The religion accepts the concept of God, believes in the physical body as the Self, and injects a theoretical code of conduct to live in the world, whereas, in spirituality, the Soul is the Self and body, ego, the world, conceptual God are part of the dualistic illusion or Maya created out of the Soul, which is present in the form of the consciousness.
Swami Vivekananda: ~ Creeds and sects have their parts to play, but they are for children, they last but temporarily. Books never make religions, but religions make books. We must never forget that. No book ever created God, but God inspired all the great books. And no book ever created a soul. We must never forget that. (Talk given at Unity Hall, Hartford (Connecticut), USA, on March 8, 1895, as reported in "Hartford Times" (March 11, 1895). Complete Works, 1.324.)

The birth, death and the world, pain, and pleasure, Good and bad, right and wrong, negative or positive belong to you, not to the Soul, the Self. The Soul is present in the form of consciousness.
You are the false self (ego) within the false experience (waking). Your existence is limited to the domain of form, time, and space. From the standpoint of the Soul, the Self, the form, time, and space are an illusion created out of consciousness.
Remember the ‘Self’ is not you but the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. The illusion has no value in the domain of the Soul, the Self. In reality, the soul and the illusion are one in essence.
Sage Sankara: ~ “VC~ This whole universe which through ignorance appears as of diverse forms is nothing else but Brahman (consciousness) which is absolutely free from all the limitations of Maya.
Getting rid of the ignorance by realizing the Self is not you but the Soul, which is present in the form of the consciousness and rests in consciousness. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
If the Self’ is not the ‘I’ then the seeker has to base the ‘Self’ on whatever prevails without the ‘I’.+
If one has understood 'I’ or ‘I AM ‘is not the Self and what really is ‘I’ or ‘I AM’, there is no necessity for the pursuit of truth.
When in deeper self-search one becomes aware that, the ‘Self ‘is neither the body nor the ‘I’.
If the Self’ is not the ‘I’ then the seeker has to base the ‘Self’ on whatever prevails without the ‘I’.
Passing the opinion and judgment even after knowing the ‘Self’ is not ‘I’, is erroneous.
Holding the ‘I’ as the ‘Self’ and passing judgment and opinion based on the ‘I’ or ‘I AM’ is only a hallucinated judgment based on the false self. This is because they have taken the false self as the real Self and the false experience (waking) as a reality.
The seeker has to drop all his egocentric accumulated knowledge and only then he is fit to grasp the Self-knowledge.
Read repeatedly, think and reason deeply reflect constantly only on the Soul, which is present in the form of the consciousness.
Nothing is real but the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. Nothing exists other than consciousness. Consciousness is everywhere and it is everything.
Consciousness alone is real and the world in which you exist is an illusion. Let these words be inscribed in your subconscious.
As the conviction about the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness, becomes firm in the subconscious, the Soul becomes free from the cage of the dualistic illusion.
Only your intense urge to know the truth will take you to the ultimate end, but your accumulated knowledge will block you from realizing the truth, which is beyond form, time, and space.
The 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.
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.
I can point at the sky, but the seeing of the star is the seeker's own work.
It is necessary to reflect on the same truth again and again till it becomes a reality. One needs to constantly reflect on the subject until he gets a firm conviction of what is what.
Words of wisdom are needed until one gets a firm conviction of ‘what is what’. People need to read and hear the words of wisdom to think reason and reflect deeply and reach the ultimate end.
It takes time for the seeker to gain a perfect understanding of ‘what is the truth?’ and ‘’what is untruth’.
It takes time for the Soul, the Self to wake up from the sleep of ignorance, and it takes time for one to realize the truth, which is beyond form, time, and space.
Reading my posts and blogs repeatedly helps you to get a yardstick for the subconscious to judge ‘what is the truth?’ and ‘what is untruth’ and replace the truth in the place of the untruth.
Remember:~
In pursuit of truth, the ultimate truth has to be proved, not assumed. Pundits who take scriptures for granted are not Gnanis.
Pundits 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 needed so that one arrives at knowing truth i.e. wisdom; punditry is mere dogma, parrotism, and repetition of what they read in scripture. Scripters are not yardsticks and the scriptural truth is not proof.
Pundits take scripters as an authority. Authoritarianism merely assumes as true what another says, but what has yet to be proved.
Pundits have to test the truth in this world, not in the next world. There is no proof other than blind belief based on the scriptures, belief is not the truth. So, doctrines are not the means to realize the ultimate truth. There is no need to follow them.
Remember;~
An ignorant person has many desires in his mind, and because of these desires, he remains in the realm of duality. He has to have a body; otherwise, he cannot satisfy his desires. But the more he tries to satisfy them, the more they grip his ego. This goes on endlessly. But it is given to a human being to think, reason, and discriminate.
Thus, he soon comes to realize that the path he has been following cannot give him satisfaction. He understands that he has to choose another path the path of wisdom or the path of truth.
As long as he does not take the path of Gnana or wisdom, he gropes in ignorance and experiences the dualistic illusion r Maya (universe) as reality.
From the ultimate standpoint, the karma theory has no meaning because the Soul the 'Self' is prior to the body and the world.
The body and the world are impermanent; whereas the Soul in the form of consciousness is permanent.
The Self is neither the waking entity nor the Self is dream entity but the Self the formless Soul. The Soul is the formless substance and witness of the three states.
Waking and dreams are insentient. Consciousness gives sentient to the waking or dream. Without consciousness the waking or dreams are nonexistent.
The dream is nonexistent when the waking takes place. Similarly, the waking is nonexistent when the soul wakes up in its formless nondual true nature.
The waking or dream both are an illusion from the standpoint of the Soul, the 'Self', which is present in the form of consciousness. :~~Santthosh Kumaar
