If you want to know what is this world in which you exist in
actuality then you must realize its illusory nature. Only when you realize the
illusory nature of the world in which you exist then only it possible to
realize your individual experience of the birth, life, death and the world is
nothing but an illusion.
Without realizing the ‘Self’ is not the ‘I’ but the Soul, which is
present in the form of the consciousness, Self-realization is
impossibility.
People
say I AM THAT ~ I am God, I am Brahman. But when Brahman is, how can
"I" remain? Only Brahman remains, not I, it is erroneous to use word ‘I’ for the Self , because ‘I’ represents
the form, time and space whereas the Soul, the innermost Self is
formless, timeless and spaceless existence.
If you change your ‘I know'
attitude’ and indulge in deeper self-search you will be able to discover the
truth, which is hidden by the world in which you exist.
Katha Upanishad says ~ Fools dwelling in darkness, but
thinking themselves wise and erudite, go round and round, by various tortuous
paths, like the blind led by the blind. (Ch~ II-5 P-14)
Those who indulge in a perverted argument on their own
standpoint and opinion are not seeking the truth, which is beyond form, time,
and space. They just want to exhibit their accumulated knowledge accumulated
from here and there. They think what they know is the ultimate truth.
They think whatever they
propagate is the ultimate truth. The question never occurs to them, “Is what I
know is really the truth.
You are stuck up some Gurus and
their teaching you are like stagnant water of the dirty pond. Till you are
stuck up with the idea that you get instant enlightenment from some enlightenment
then you are hallucinating.
That is why Swami Vivekananda said: ~ “You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, none
can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher, but your own Soul.”
Sage Sri, Sankara says ~ VC-162- There is no liberation for a person of mere book
knowledge, howsoever well-read in the philosophy of Vedanta, so long as one
does not give up the false identification with the body, sense organs, etc.,
which are unreal.
People dwelling in the ignorance,
but thinking themselves wise and erudite, go round and round by various blind
beliefs and tortuous paths and practices, like the blind led by the blind.
Come out of your prison of
emotion. Be independent. Sit think, reason and reflect deeply.
You need to read or hear the words
of wisdom of Advaita. Remember The Soul is the only reality and the world in
which you exist is an illusion.
Reason and reflect upon the words
of wisdom of Advaita constantly. Give up all further argumentation and
realizing the truth. This realization comes from being certain that the Soul,
which is present in the form of the consciousness alone, is real and the world
in which you exist is an illusion created out of the consciousness. Thus, the
Soul is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God.
That is why Sri, Sankara declaration: ~ “Brahman is the truth The World
is Unreal everything is Truly Brahman and nothing Else has any value.
Sage
Sri, 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. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
