Jesus’s version of Advaita***






Jesus’s version of  Advaita.  

Jesus said:~ "Know what is in front of your face, and what is hidden from you will be disclosed to you. (THE GOSPEL OF THOMAS- Saying 5)


"The Kingdom of God is inside you and all around you, Not in a mansion of wood and stone.  Split a piece of wood and God is there, Lift a stone and you will find God." (Gospel of Thomas)

Gospel Thomas logian 22:- Jesus saw infants being suckled.  He said to his disciples, “These infants being suckled are like those who enter the kingdom.”

They said to him, “Shall we then, as children, enter the kingdom?”

Jesus said to them,  “When you make the two one, and when you make the inside like the outside  and the outside like the inside, and the above like the below, and when you make the male and the female one and the same, so that the male not be male nor the female is female; and when you fashion eyes in the place of an eye,  and a hand in place of a hand, and a foot in place of a foot, and a likeness in place of a likeness; then will you enter the kingdom.”

Santthosh Kumaar: ~This above passage is Jesus’s version of Nonduality or Advaita.    When one realizes mind (matter) and Soul (Spirit), the innermost Self,  are one,  in essence, there is no place for duality. Without the duality,  the universe ceases to exist. Without the universe,  your existence within the universe is mere an illusion because there is scope for two because everything is created out of single stuff.   That single stuff is the consciousness or  the spirit. 

Till you think  you are  an individual separate from this world you remain  in the realm of dualistic illusion.  The dualistic illusion  is the product of the  ignorance.  When the  Advaitic wisdom dawns, then the ignorance vanishes. When the ignorance vanishes, then the dualistic illusion will  never remain as  a reality.
