Self –knowledge Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana is meant for those who are in search for the reality of their true existence



Self –knowledge Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana is meant for those who are in search for the reality of their true existence. In pursuit of truth one need not go detail about the practical life and the practical world, but one has to know the unreal nature of mind which is present in the form of universe. The universe appears as waking and dream and disappears as deep sleep.   Man and his world exist within the waking or dream. The dream is parallel waking and waking is parallel dream.


 The universe or waking is dependent on mind, if mind is there then only the universe or waking is there. Absent of mind is absent of the universe or waking.  The duality is present only in waking or dream.  Therefore mind, universe, waking, dream and duality are one and the same thing. Therefore there is need to understand ‘what is what’ in  order to acquire Self-Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana. 


The deeper self-search reveals the fact that, the self is not physical but self is the formless spirit (soul or consciousness). If self is not physical then what is the use of searching and trying to understand and assimilate the truth on physical base. Therefore there is a need to rectify the reasoning base from physical to the spirit base in order to understand and assimilate the Self-Knowledge or brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana. All the doubts and confusion will disappear as one learns to view and judge and reason on the base of the formless spirit (soul) or consciousness.
