Silence is not absence of speech



Silence is not absence of speech. Silence is true nature of the soul , the innermost self. Thus it is necessary to realize the fact that the self is not the form but self is formless ,timeless and space less existence to realize what is real silence. This is why wisdom is silent. It is impossible to bring the ultimate wisdom into words because the words are expression of thoughts and when the waking entity realizes the fact that, the thoughts and words are one in essence than the thinking faculty becomes still. That stillness is self-awareness or Prajna or Gnana. It is the meaning of biblical spiritual insight: - Be still and know that ‘SELF’ is GOD [Ultimate truth or Brahman].

When one realizes the body and the world are one in essence and that essence is consciousness than the self is in its own awareness of its formless nondual true nature in the midst of duality (waking).

In the state of Gnana the body is not considered as body, ego is not considered as ego, the world is not considered as world, the thoughts are not considered as thoughts and words are not considered as words but they are mere mirage created out of consciousness. The words are expression of thoughts when the thoughts and words are one in essence than there is no scope for any second thing to exist other than consciousness. Thus the ultimate truth or Brahman has to be grasped mentally until the words and thoughts will merge in their essence and thinking faculty becomes consciously still in the midst of diversity (waking).

Consciousness is objectless awareness. The light of that awareness falls on waking or dream -- but ‘self is neither the waking entity nor the dream entity. As long as self is identified as waking entity the ignorance will prevail. As long as ignorance prevails the illusion is experienced as reality. As long as the illusion is experienced as reality the words are necessary for communication and also to understand and assimilate and realize the ultimate truth or Brahman.

Ego is the identification of  the soul, the innermost self with the waking entity and the waking world. As soon as waking entity drops all identification – than the ‘Self only pure knowing. ‘Self’ is pure awareness. ‘Self ‘is purely Brahman or Christ or Buddha.

By deeper self-search the ‘Ego’ begins to return to its source. That it is journeying from ignorance towards wisdom. The moment of liberation is coming closer. -FORMLESS PATH
