Deeper self-search will leads one to non-dual self-awareness. Trying to discover
the truth on the false self (waking entity or ego) is going round and round not reaching
anywhere.
One is ignorant and he asserts the blissful, ever-existent consciousness,
which exits in all the three states as its formless substance and witness. And it
is also apart from the three states. The
witness is formless and it is not an entity and identity within the waking or dream.
Once the seeker accepts the fact
that, the self is neither the ‘I’, nor the body then realizes the fact that,
the consciousness is the true self, and he establishes himself in that
conviction. Once this conviction is
established the then the waking experience is absolutely non-existent as
reality.
Seeker has to try to know the fact that, with the help of inquiry,
analysis and reasoning, the true self is not ‘ego’, but the soul, which is in
the form of consciousness. Holding the ego (ego or waking entity) as self is cause of ignorance. The consciousness is knower of
the body and the universe.
It is very difficult for those who strongly believe the ‘I’, as self to
realize the truth. Most of the spiritual paths hold the ‘I’, as self and spin their
imagination on the base of ‘I’, which leads them to hallucination. People
mistake that self as “I” whereas the gross bodies are many. So ‘I’ cannot be self.
By sentimentally and emotionally getting involved with some teachings or
teacher is great hindrance in pursuit of truth. People hold their guru as
ultimate authority and drop their pursuit of truth and indulge in their
glorifying and worshiping the gurus, which keeps them in the permanently in
ignorance.
