Sage Sri, Sankara and Goudpada are more scientific than anyone else in the world

 Sri, Sankara says Atman is Brahman and everything is Brahman is scientific declaration not religious or yogic. Sage Sri, Sankara and Goudpada are more scientific than anyone else in the world. Since, the real Advaitic essence is hidden it cannot be got without the inner (mental) journey.

Where there is no ignorance there is no burden and bondage of duality or illusion. Most people do not understand this because they are egocentric. 

People quote the authorities from the scriptures and famous people to prove their point. The formless soul, the innermost self, which is free never, becomes bond. No bondage no-liberation from the ultimate point of view. 

Only by analyzing the mind and its substance helps to get of bondage or illusion.  In the nature of the consciousness there is no division as internal and external. 

Seeker has to be steady in the pursuit of truth, and then alone it is possible to understand and assimilate the ultimate truth.  Those who accepted the illusion as reality will not be able to understand assimilate the ultimate truth.

The disentangling of cause and effect is huge problem in mental thinking. Reason functions only where there is duality. 

What is the first thought of the child? The child does not think until it is three years old. It does not think of ‘I’ or me because the ego is not formed yet. When it starts identifying itself with name then the ego is formed. 

 The ‘I’ or ‘I Am’ are mere words.  The reality is beyond thoughts and words. The words have meaning in duality. Duality exists until mind exists. Mind exists where there is division of form, time and space. If there is no division of form, time and space, than there is no mind. Words are used as a tool to name individual objects and feelings within the duality. The words become meaningless when one becomes aware of the formless substance of the mind, which is consciousness. Consciousness is our inner most self. From the standpoint of our inner most self, the mind is mere mirage. If mind is mere mirage then the form, time and space are mere mirage. If form, time and space are mere mirage than the thoughts and words which rises within the scope of form, time and space are also part and parcel of that mirage. Thus body, ego, words, thoughts, and whatever the contents of the universe are within the mirage created out of single stuff that is consciousness. Thus it is necessary to know 'What is mind?' and 'What is the substance of the mind?' and 'What is the source of the mind?', in order to realize the words are meaningless in the realm of truth.
