The experience of birth, life, death and the world is reality within the waking experience.

The experience of birth, life, death and the world is reality within the waking experience. The innermost Self is nothing to do with the experience of birth, life, death anf the world because it is birth-less. The one, which is born, lives and dies is in the world is the waking entity.

Waking entity is not the self. The self is that, which witnesses the coming and going of the three states without the physical apparatus. The experience of birth, life, death and the world (waking) is an object to the formless subject (soul, the innermost self). Thus the object (mind or universe or waking) is mere illusion on the standpoint of the formless subject (soul or consciousness).

Man has a firm conviction that he is an individual separate from the world and world existed prior to him and he is born in in it afterwards. This conviction makes him remain in ignorance. And ignorance makes him accept the illusion as reality. Thus he is caught up in the web of illusion experiencing the birth, life, death and the world as reality. thus he bases himself on the birth entity which is the false self within the false experience. -FORMLESS PATH
