Detachment to attachment is impossible without wisdom.




 Detachment to attachment is impossible without wisdom. Only when one realizes the fact that, the self is not form but self is formless, than only it is possible to detach the ‘self’ from the false attachment.  

Man and his individual experience of the birth life and death are reality within the falsehood. Until one has a firm conviction he is an individual separate from the universe and universe existed prior to him, and he is born in it afterwards he will never be able to acquire non-dual wisdom. Because of this reason he will not be able think beyond form, time and space.    Until this conviction is there all his views, judgments and conclusions are based on the false self within the false experience. Thus there is a need for overcoming this conviction by realizing the fact that the self is not form but self is formless. 

Without overcoming this conviction one is in the grip of form, time and space.  Until self is in the grip of form, time and space, the duality will prevail as reality.  If duality prevails as reality the ignorance prevails.  If ignorance prevails the wisdom will not dawn.  Without wisdom detachment to attachment is impossibility. 

Religious believers believe that , the  individual non-dual God takes innumerable forms according to the realization and capacity of the seekers in varying degrees. because Religionists approach is  more practical, and they are  stuck with the reality of the world, they take  it as real. 

Soul or consciousness, the innermost self  is not an individual because it pervades in everything and everywhere in all the three states.

Only in ignorance, the body remains as body, ego remains as ego and the world remains as world.   Thus the forms, names and experiences are reality.  From ultimate standpoint the whole universe in which we exist is mere illusion. 

On the stand point of formless soul (Consciousness) the innermost self:-

The soul or consciousness   is the witness 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.

What is not consciousness (formless) in the experience of diversity (universe or waking)?  The waking and the dream cease to exist without consciousness.  The seeker, seeking and his destination   all are one in essence.

When wisdom dawns in the midst of waking experience (illusion) the body is not body, the ego is not ego and the experience of the world is not world but everything is consciousness. Thus consciousness alone is real and all else is mere illusion.
