You are roaming around aimlessly to find the truth not knowing where to find the truth you are seeking for.+

You are roaming around aimlessly to find the truth not knowing where to find the truth you are seeking for.

You are caught up in the prison of accumulated knowledge, beliefs, dogmas, and superstition, and trying to search for the truth within the frame world of religion and the yogic path.

You are so sentimentally attached to your religious belief it is impossible to realize the truth, which is hidden under the debris of your inherited beliefs.

Religion keeps the Soul in the cage of ignorance. A Gnani knows ‘what is truth and what is the untruth.

A Gnani says there is no need to search for the truth in the world in which he exists.

The world is merely an illusion created out of the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. Consciousness is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth.

Consciousness is prior to the world in which you exist. Consciousness is the cause of the world in which you exist and it, itself is uncaused.

This truth is already declared by Sage Sankara 1200 years back. So, there is no need to search for the truth you have only realize the truth by removing all the mental blocks one by one, which are obstructing you from realizing the ‘Self is not you but the ‘Self’ is Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.

The pursuit of truth is a mental journey. The path is straight. The path is the inner path. You will not find the path in the world in which you exist. Because you have chosen the outer path you are facing difficulty finding what you are seeking.

If you drop all the accumulated baggage you can go straight without being obstructed by any obstacles and reach the inner destination.

The Self is the destination. The ‘Self is what you are seeking. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar

Yogi practicing samadhi. Samadhi is not different from sleep. Yogi cannot get Advaitic wisdom because yoga is based on individuals.+

Yogi practicing samadhi. Samadhi is not different from sleep. Yogi cannot get Advaitic wisdom because yoga is based on individuals.

The individual has no reality because the individual belongs to the illusory universe or Maya. His yogic bliss is not concerned with Advaitic Gnana.

The universe must be seen before Advaitic Gnana can be got. You must know with full and firm conviction the universe is nothing but consciousness in the midst of the objective universe.

To achieve this, you must first examine the universe. If the inquiry does not include the universe then it is incomplete.

Sage Sankara: ~ VC-63- "Without knowing and examining the universe, one can’t know the Truth, as the idea that the external world exists, won't go. It can go only by an inquiry into the nature of the external world.

You just study the nature of the universe with all the seriousness and sincerity to unfold the mystery of the universe. That is all you have to do.

Until the mystery of the universe is not solved, the Self hidden by the illusory universe will not be realized.

Reality is hidden by unreality. The universe in which we exist hides the truth. Whatever belongs to you is unreal.

Consciousness is the one single reality or Brahman. The individual self is a reality within the illusory universe or Maya.

Look into the nature of the universe. And you will be able to see that the universe by its very nature is illusory. The moment you understand that the universe is illusory, ignorance disappears and Self-awareness arises.

Self-awareness is the state of non-dual reality. That is the state of Advaita.

People never realize non-dualistic awareness through religion and yoga.

Self-awareness raises only by mentally transcending the dualistic illusion into non-dualistic reality.: ~Santthosh Kumaar

Self-inquiry is for finding out the ‘Self’ which is hidden by the illusory universe, in which we exist.+

Self-inquiry is for finding out the ‘Self’ which is hidden by the illusory universe, in which we exist. 

By inquiring ‘Who am I?’- the ignorance will not vanish. Without getting rid of ignorance, the Advaitic wisdom will not dawn. Without the Advaitic wisdom, it is not possible to realize the truth, which is hidden within the world in which we exist.

That is why Sage Sankara says: ~ VC-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.

Sage Sankara says ~ “What is accepted without a proper inquiry will not lead a person to the final goal. On the contrary, such acceptance will result only in evil, in something detrimental to our spiritual progress.

Sage Sankara says the transparent truth of the Self, which is hidden by the illusion, is to be attained through the instructions of a knower of Brahman, (Gnani).

By inquiring Who is that you.  Noting is gained. The inquirer himself is the ego.  Without the ego, you do not exist.  The Self is not you because you are the ego.

The Self is not you but the Self is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.

The seeker has to drop all his egocentric accumulated knowledge and only then he is fit to grasp the Self-knowledge.

Remember: ~

You are not separate from the ego because you are the ego. Without the ego, you and the world in which you exist cease to exist. In the awareness of the ego, the world in which you exist is a reality.

In the awareness of the ego, your individual experience of birth, life, death, and the world is experienced as a reality.

In the awareness of the ego, form, time, and space prevail as a reality.

In the awareness of the ego, the dualistic illusion, or Maya prevails as reality.

In the awareness of the ego, the three states prevail as reality.

In the awareness of the ego, the ‘I’ prevails as a reality.

If ‘I’ prevails as reality the ignorance prevails as reality.

Self-knowledge or Advaitic wisdom is necessary to get rid of ignorance.

Without Self-awareness, the universe prevails as reality. Self-awareness means the conscious awareness of the Soul hidden by the ‘I’. In Self-awareness, the reality of the universe fades away. 

Sage Sankara says liberation comes, but only through the realization that Atman and Brahman are one in no other way. (1) VivekaChudamani v 56, pg 25: ~Santthosh Kumaar

The source of the thoughts is the ego. Without the ego, the thoughts will not arise.+

Thinker, thoughts, and the world in which the thinker exists have nothing to do with the Soul, the Self, which is hidden by ignorance.

Those who think by inquiring to whom the thoughts come from will not be able to realize the ‘Self’ because they are thinking the ‘Self is within their body. The ‘Self’ is not within the body but it is hidden by the universe, which is the dualistic illusion or Maya.

Thoughts and thinker and the world in which the thinker exists belong to the dualistic illusion. Without form, time, and space the thoughts will not form. 

Thoughts come to the thinker. The thinker is an individual whereas the ‘Self is not an individual. 

The source of the thoughts is the ego. Without the ego, the thoughts will not arise. Thoughts and thinker and the world in which the thinker exists have nothing to do with the Soul, the ‘Self, which is hidden by the dualistic illusion (I).

You are the thinker. The thoughts come to you. You are bound by form, time, and space whereas 

The Soul, the Self is a formless, timeless, and spaceless existence. The thoughts will not rise in the domain of the Soul, the ‘Self’ because it is the ever-formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.

The thoughts come to the thinker within the universe, which is the dualistic illusion or Maya. Without the dualistic illusion or Maya the thinker, thoughts, and the world in which the thinker exists cease to exist

Therefore, just by finding out to whom the thoughts come? Who is the knower? it is impossible to realize the truth, which is beyond form, time, and space. A perfect understanding of ‘what is what' is what is very much necessary to cross the threshold of the dualistic illusion. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar

Religion blocks one from realizing God in truth because religion is based on myth whereas Spirituality is based on the ultimate truth.+

Religion blocks one from realizing God in truth because religion is based on myth whereas Spirituality is based on the ultimate truth.

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

The Soul, the Self is unborn, and undifferentiated consciousness is God in truth.

The Vedas confirm God is Atman (Spirit), the Self.

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 has no ‘Pratima’ (idol) or material shape. God cannot be seen directly by anyone. God pervades all beings and all directions.

Thus, Idolatry does not find any support from the Vedas.

Vedas itself says: May ye never accept another God in place of the Atman nor worship other than the Atman? Thus, to know the real God Self-realization is necessary. Self-realization is God-realization. Self-realization is real worship.

Rig Veda: ~ The Atman is the cause; Atman is the support of all that exists in this universe. May ye never turn away from the Atman, the Self. May ye never accept another God in place of the Atman nor worship other than the Atman?" (10:48, 5)

Religion makes it complicated to realize the God in truth hidden by the ignorance obscures from human vision.: ~Santthosh Kumaar

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 

The Advaitic wisdom of Sage Sankara reveals both the real and the unreal nature of existence.+

The Advaitic wisdom of Sage Sankara reveals both the real and the unreal nature of existence.

The universe is both real and unreal. It is real because it is a manifestation of consciousness, but is unreal, in the sense, that it is not absolute and eternal like consciousness itself.

People's approach is more practical, and they stuck with the reality of the universe, they take the universe as real. That is why all the confusion.

The look of an object will depend upon the medium through which the observer views it. In fact, our mental and intellectual conditions determine the universe, which confronts us, observed, and experienced. The commoner viewing the world will see differently from a Gnani viewing the same world. Each one interprets the world that they see in terms of their existing knowledge. The commoner sees everything based on the ego and therefore experiences birth, life, death, and the universe as a reality, whereas a Gnani sees everything as consciousness and he is fully aware of the fact that, there is no second thing that exists other than the Soul or consciousness. 

Thus, all the egocentric knowledge has to be bifurcated to realize the ultimate truth, which is beyond form, time, and space. 

The universe in which we exist is nothing but an illusion created out of the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. 

The whole universe is nothing but the Soul. Therefore, there is no second thing that exists other than the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.

It is not as if something that was not consciousness suddenly becomes consciousness. Rather, "knowing the truth” means the removal of ignorance about one's own existence as consciousness. Thus, to "know the truth” is to "be consciousness."

Consciousness is ever-present. Without consciousness, the universe, in which you exist ceases to exist.    Consciousness is Self-evident. It is not established by extraneous proofs. 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 everything. Thus, consciousness is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
