Dual and non-dual are not religious theories, but the nature of the soul the innermost self.

Dual and non-dual are not religious theories, but the nature  of the soul the  innermost self. When the soul  is in illusion then it is called duality. duality is in the form of mind. mind is in the form universe. universe appears as waking or dream. When the  soul is in its formless non dual true nature then it is  non-duality.  In deep sleep the soul is in its formless non-dual true nature.    thus one that sappers as duality and disappears as non duality is the formless soul,which is present in the form of consciousness. 

The waking entity and waking world are within the waking experience. The dream  entity and dream world are within the dream. The dream becomes unreal when waking takes place. Similarly the waking also becomes unreal when the waking entity becomes aware of the fact that, it itself not the self.  Thus the waking entity is false self within the false experience. Therefore,  the self is neither the waking entity no the self is the dream entity but the self is formless Soul  or consciousness , the innermost self.  on the standpoint of the formless soul the three states are mere illusion.

  All the  theories  based on the  of  waking entity is bound to be falsehood because waking entity is false self within the false experience. Therefore, whatever is seen, known, experienced and believed on the base of  waking entity is bound to be false hood because the waking entity is bound by birth,life and death.

  People limit the  self to limit the entity and waking world  whereas the self is pervades all the three states as their formless subsistence and witness.   The three states are an object to the formless subject ,which is the soul.   One has to realize the object and subject are one is essence. And that essence is conciousness.

Orthodox Advaita is noting to with Self-knowledge or Bramha Gnana or Atma Gnana. orthodoxy is is meant for the lower mind set, who are incapable inquire to verifying their inherited beliefs. 

Pure essence of Spiritualistic  Advaita of Sri Sankara and Sri, Goudpada which is based on the formless soul, the innermost self. Soul-centric reasoning leads towards the non-dual destination.  Therefore, there is need to rectify the reasoning  base from ego(form)  base to soul(formless)  base.

To the Gnani, birth, life and death, is a mere mirage, because he is fully aware of the fact that all the three states are mere illusion. All the three states they appear and disappear in succession. The witness of the three states is neither the body nor the ‘I’. Thus the witness is apart from the body and ‘I’.

When one is “awake,” he incessantly thinks, and when he goes to sleep and dream, he does not think any the lesser. But when he  pass from dreamful to dreamless sleep, his  thoughts cease and he enjoy undisturbed peace, till he  wakes again and resume his  thinking and with it his  restless, peace-less state. But all these are happening within the three states and he is aware of the experiences only in the waking experience.

Birth, life and death are part of the waking experience. The waking experience is mind, because when the mind exists, then only the duality prevails. Absent of mind absent of duality. Therefore waking or dream (mind or duality) is one and the same thing.

People think life is miserable because they are not aware of the fact that ‘I’ is not the true self and all the three states are unreal on the standpoint of the soul, which is the true self.

Waking or dream consists of nothing but experience. In deep sleep the waking and dream disappears and the experience -Free State prevails.  But soon experience appears again in the dream  or astral or vision and continues till a full “waking” takes place in a new body, after another dreamless lull. This daily cycle of waking and sleeping is a miniature of the cycle of birth, life and death.

 Man and the universe are part of the illusion, which exists as waking or dream. The substance of the waking and dream or deep sleep is soul or consciousness from which these three states arise. To transcend birth, life and death one has to transcend the three states and abide in the eternal substance which is the true self.

The terrible fear of death is absent only in deep sleep.  The fear seize only in deep sleep. Fear is present only when sees his body and the world in waking or dream. But in dreamless sleep, or when one is under Anastasia.  Fear haunts one only when one is fully “awake” and perceive the world, including his body. If one becomes aware of the true self and learns to view and judge the worldview on the standpoint of the true self, the fear becomes part of the mirage. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the three states and become aware of the fact that, the true self, which witnesses the three states, is apart from the three states.

If one traces this fear to the object, the loss of which gives rise to it, he will find that that object exists within the waking or dream which exists in the form of the mind. The attractive world and the senses that are touch, taste sights, sounds, smells, etc are within the waking or dream(duality).

People would be too glad to be rid of worldly life and all the problems and inconvenience it creates for them if continued awareness were vouchsafed to them. It is the awareness, the consciousness, and not the body, he fears to lose. Everyone loves existence because it is eternal awareness, which is their own Self.

The seeker of truth has to hold on to the pure awareness right now, while in the body and be free from all fear which is created out illusion.

People want to know about rebirths. Theosophy speaks of 50 to thousands-year intervals between death and rebirth. But all these are imaginations based on the false self. There is no relation between the standard of measurements of one state of consciousness and another. All such measurements are hypothetical.

It must be distinctly understood that it is not the soul that comes and goes, but the three states which appear and disappear. The three states are mere illusion on the standpoint of the formless witness which is the formless  soul or conciousness, the innermost self.

On plane of duality that is in the waking the waking world a waking body exists, in the dream, dream world a dream body exists. In dreamless sleep or in death, it remains wordless and bodiless therefore illusion less.

The Gnani, the Self- Realized person , whose mind has already ceased to act, remains unaffected by birth, life death [duality]: it has dropped never to rise again as reality. The chain of illusions has snapped forever for him.

It is now clear that there is neither real birth, nor real death. It is the illusion that creates the sense of reality in duality. The sense of reality of the duality will prevail till it is destroyed by Self-Realization.
