Self –Awareness arises when wisdom dawns not by some practice. Wisdom dawns when ignorance vanishes through
wisdom. Thus it is necessary to realize that fact that, the world confronts one
is also consciousness. The whole universe is consciousness. Unless
the world is there in one’s realization, there is no Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana
or Self-Knowledge. It is not enough to see a mere blankness in Samadhi. One has
to realize the body, ego and the world as consciousness. The soul, the
innermost self is free from ignorance not when one sees nothing at all, as
waking entity in Yogic Samadhi but only when one see all this universe
including his body and ego as consciousness. Hence you must ask the
question “What is this universe?” The attention must be drawn to the outer
world to realize the form, time and space which are present in the form of
universe are also made of single stuff, which is consciousness.
This universe is common to all of us, therefore one must include the
universe his investigation in order to realize the ultimate truth or
Brahman. It is only after one has inquired into the nature of the
objective universe, that he should inquire into who is the knower. If, however
one inquiries into the knower before the inquiry into the universe,
then it is mere mysticism. One must have the perfect understanding of
what is what. Self-awareness is impossible without Self-Knowledge or Brahma Gnana
or Atma Gnana.
