It is foolish to impose our idea on others because
everyone is not in same level of understanding.
Every one's inner work is on. When they are ripe enough they will
understand, assimilate and realize on their own. If they are ready and sharp enough they will
grasp it instantly and they will reach their destination with lesser time and effort.
Thus preaching, teaching is not wisdom, but by very careful reasoning, seeker
has to determine the nature of reality. Thinking in right direction alone helps
seeker determining the nature of reality.
The sugar cannot know itself its sweetness. The true self
without ignorance is without the experience of duality or illusion. Thus one
has to base on the sugar not on its sweetness. Without the sugar there is no
sweetness. Similarly without the consciousness, the three states cease to exist
as reality.
Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana has no connection
with end-gaining, belief, path or process. Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana cannot be taught but is
continuously shared. Because it is universal inheritance, no-one can lay claim
to it. It needs not to be argued, proven or embellished, for it stands alone
simply as it is, and can only remain unrecognized and rejected, or realized and
lived.”
Seeker have to grow from the
inside out. None can teach him, none can make him spiritual. There is no other Guru but his own soul, the innermost self .”
Just as a ripened fruit separates effortlessly from
the tree and falls, the seeker who is ripened and matured, will be able
to grasp the non dual truth.
The ego is not the self. When one
limits the ‘I’ to physical entity, it is called ego. The ego, body and world appear together and
disappear together. Therefore, limiting
the ‘I’ to the physical entity is creates the ignorance of the truth/reality.
To understand “What is truth” and “What is untruth” one has to know the fact
that; whether the mind/’I’ is within the body, or body and world are within the
‘I’/mind to get Self-realization.
It is the soul, the innermost self that has to
Wake up to realize it is without the body and without the world. The self is not you (I or I AM). You are limited to the waking experience,
which is mere illusion whereas the consciousness pervades all the three
states. Holding the waking entity (you
or I AM) as self is erroneous. The self
is not waking entity and waking experience is mere illusion. It means you are (I AM) part of the
illusion. The one which witnesses the illusion
(mind or universe) is not the waking
entity (you) but it is the soul is ever apart and ever formless.
People think ‘I’ or ‘I AM as self
only their body is not self. Only when the ‘I’ is there than only the body, ego
and the world is there. If ‘I’ disappears than the body, ego and the world
disappear. Without the ‘I’ there is
neither body, nor ego and nor world. The
‘I’ is present when the mind is present. Mind is present only when the universe
is present. Universe is present only when the waking is present. Waking is
present only when there is ignorance.
Thus ‘I’ is cause of the ignorance. Getting rid of the ignorance
is very much necessary in pursuit of truth.
Non-dualistic
truth is supreme truth; all dualistic systems hold false self [ego] as real
self and false experience [universe or waking] as reality. Non- dualistic wisdom is culmination of all
systems including theistic non-duality.
The true non-dualist will not quarrel and argue with any theoretical
philosophy because he is fully aware of the fact that, this orthodox theistic
non-dualistic scholars or pundits like Dualist sages could not distinguish
between ‘I’ and ‘formless witness.’ The 'I' was the witness. Their highest was
the Jiva. One is so much attached to the 'I' that he do not want to think that
'I' does not exist. Again one is unable to detach the ‘I’ from the Real
witness.
There is
need to study the scriptures. One has to self-search the truth and realize it
without the scriptures. And then when he reads the scriptures he becomes aware
the scriptures are also saying the same thing but everything is misinterpreted.
Thus holding
the ‘I’ or ‘I AM’ as self and trying to assimilate the self-knowledge will not
yield any fruit. Thus deeper
verification is very much necessary to drop the ‘I’ or ‘I AM THAT – declared by
the sages in the past which are useful only in lower stages.
There is no need to collect all these
baggage of confusions, if one is seeking truth, nothing but truth. The guru is
necessary only in religious and yogic paths, but guru is not necessary in
pursuit of truth. Path of truth is a personal path and it is the path of
verification. But in religion and yoga the verification is not allowed. Blind
faith is main ingredient in belief system and yoga.
