The sun, the moon, the stars, planets shine
because of the Soul or Spirit. Soul shines and all things else shine as a
result. Everything in the universe reflects but that light of the Soul, which
is present in the form of consciousness. Merely to know the truth is not enough
to escape from the tangle of illusion. The illusion arises from ignorance.
Enlightenment comes with detachment from the illusion, not with learning. When wisdom dawns the soul of the mind are one
in essence, than the soul, the innermost self is freed from ignorance. When the
soul is free from ignorance it becomes free from experiencing the illusory experience
of birth, life, death and the world as reality. Soul, the innermost self and it
is ever free and immortal.
Without the soul or consciousness the mind ceases to exists. Mind is in the form of universe. universe appears as waking or dream and disappears as deep sleep. The waking entity thinks within the waking experience. Within the waking experience the thoughts arises to the waking entity therefore, the waking entity is the thinker within the waking experience. Within the dream the thoughts arises to the dream entity therefore, the dream entity is the thinker within the dream. The dream become unreal when waking takes place. thus the thinker and thought of the dream are falsehood. Similarly when waking entity realizes the fact that, it itself is not the self , than whatever seen, known ,believed and experienced as waking entity is bound to be falsehood. Deeper self-search reveals the fact that, the self is neither the waking entity nor the self is dream entity but the self is the soul,which witnesses the three states without the physical apparatus. Thus realizing the formless soul as the innermost self leads one to Self-Awareness.
To know the ultimate truth or brahman , deeper thinking
is required. The thinking faculty ceases and becomes still when it reaches the
source of the mind. One has to realize the waking entity is false self within
the false experience from the ultimate standpoint.
Where there is no experience then there is no
duality where there no duality then there is no second thing exist other than
the self-awareness. Therefore seeker has
indulge in deeper self-search and trace and overcome the obstacles. For the
sincere and serious seekers the inner grace will guide until the ignorance
vanishes and he becomes aware of the fact that the diversity [universe or
Illusion] is mere mirage created out of consciousness [Atman].
Waking experience
in which a person perceives the world doesn't exists as real in reality
because, everything is consciousness, and apart from consciousness there is
nothing in the waking experience.
Whatever is thought
of within the waking experience makes Him something other than what He is. When
the waking experience ends, what happens? It is consciousness alone prevails without
the three states.
Awakening is nothing but a complete, perfect understanding and assimilation of what is what. A clear cut understanding of a ‘what is what’ is awakening. Reality is not to be achieved; it is there as it is. After this perfect understanding assimilation and realization, nothing is required.
And we expect "awakening" to be some great, mysterious happening! "Reality is not to be achieved; it is there” as it is, as unchangeable existence within the changeable illusion.
Kabir views humanity as being caught up in illusion, searching for Ultimate
Reality in all the wrong places, always seeking It outside of ourselves in
various rituals, temples, forests and mountaintops, not realizing That for
which we seek is already hidden within us.
The ultimate truth or Brahman dwells within the
three states like fragrance in the flower;
Musk lies within the Musk-deer yet seeks it afar." Until one trace the
truth within the three states the illusion of birth, life, death and the world
is experienced as reality.
