Self- Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana cannot be acquired by reasoning based on the ‘waking entity or ego, which is the false self within the false experience.

Self- Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana  cannot be acquired  by reasoning based on the ‘waking entity or ego, which is the false self within the false experience.  Consciousness becomes easy of comprehension, when taught by a Gnani not by religious guru or yogi. One has to attain self- Knowledge right now in this very life not in next world or next life because the one which is born ,live and dies in this world is waking entity and waking entity is false self within the false experience.

Gnani, by means of wisdom , realizes that ancient, effulgent hidden and which dwells and pervades in everything and everywhere in all the three states as its formless substance and witness.

The formless soul or  consciousness is the innermost self self.  The knowing the innermost Self is not born; it does not die because it is formless. It has not sprung from anything; nothing has sprung from It. Birthless, eternal, everlasting and ancient, it is not killed when the body is killed or when the world disappears. If the murderer thinks he kills and if the killed man thinks he is killed, neither of these apprehends aright. The consciousness kills not, nor is it killed.

Consciousness exists in smaller than the small, greater than the great, and is hidden in the three states as its formless substance and witness. A man who is free from viewing and judging the worldview on the base of ‘ waking entity or ego’ beholds the consciousness through tranquility and becomes free from experiencing the duality(waking)  as reality.

Gnani, having realized consciousness as dwelling within impermanent states is bodiless, pervades the three states as its formless substance and witness and permanent and eternal.

 The true self is consciousness. Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana  cannot be acquired by the study of the scriptures, or by intelligence, or by much hearing of sacred books. It is attained by him alone whom It chooses. To such a one consciousness  reveals its own form.

He who has not rectified his reasoning  base from the ‘ego’[form] base to soul[formless] base , who does not have the intense urge to know the non dual truth and who is not tranquil and subdued and whose mind is not receptive , cannot acquire Self-Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana . It is realized only through inquiry, analysis and reasoning on the true base.
