Whatever exists with object is consciousness; whatever exists without the objects also is consciousness.

Our past, present and future experiences are limited to physicality. Where, there is experience (duality)there is always limitation.  We have to understand the limited is created out of unlimited.  To understand the unlimited, we have to know the self is not physical but it is the formless spirit [soul], and then only, it is possible for   the limited to dissolve in unlimited, and then only   there is oneness. That is the unity in diversity.  

Whatever exists with object is consciousness; whatever exists without the objects also is consciousness.  Therefore, consciousness alone exits, and whatever exits as objects also is consciousness. Therefore consciousness is second to none. Therefore, the consciousness (soul)is the ultimate truth.  

Truth cannot be got in external world. The truth is hidden within the three states as their formless substance  and witness.  By Becoming a monk and renouncing the worldly life and running away to mountains to acquire non dual truth or Brahman is a foolish venture.

Brahman is within.  The formless soul, which is in the form of consciousness, is ultimate truth or Brahman.   The formless soul is the innermost self and it is not an entity or identity within the waking or dream, but it is the formless substance, witness and source of the three states.    Formless soul is the source of the three states, from where the mind or universe (waking or dream) erupt and subsides. 

All the confusion and doubts arise because one doesn’t know what he is seeking. He thinks “ego or waking entity” is self and he is trying to acquire self-knowledge on the base of ‘ego or waking entity’ which is false self within the false experience. He thinks truth is some thing accomplished from the external experiences. So instead of verifying it through deeper self-search he tries to regulate his human attributes through yoga and devotion and religious code of conduct and tries to acquire the self-knowledge or brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana . 

 Karma (Conducts, action, deeds) are not the means to acquire non dual wisdom because they are based on the false self within the false experience. How karma can yields fruit when it is practiced on the base of false self within the illusion.  Karma done in the dream will not yield fruit because the dream becomes unreal when waking takes place. Similarly the waking becomes unreal when waking entity realizes it itself is not self in the midst waking experience.  If the waking entity is not the self and waking experience is mere illusion then the karma performed within the illusion has no value.    Truth is not something to be sought. It is something that has to be realized. 

People start their spiritual practices for accomplishing their needs in the worldly life as they think fulfilling such needs will give them peace of mind. But gradually they come to know that actual spiritual practices are for realizing the fact that, the experience of  birth, life ,  death  and world are mere mirage  created out of consciousness the innermost self. on the standpoint the formless soul or consciousness the innermost self the from,time and space are mere illusion. thus past,present and future are part of the illusion.
