Wisdom dawns only ignorance vanishes





Q:-


Santtosh, you are suggesting to use the above for wisdom to dawn; which are all mind related and mind is based only on memory, thought, experience whatever. This is totally contradictory to K's(JK) teachings.

SK:- I am not going to comment on K or any ones teachings. I have all the respect for K. As seekers of truth we have to move ahead on our own from where, the great masters have left. And we have to be grateful to every master who contributed on his own way to the spiritual world, which are stepping stones to know the ultimate end. 
  
What I am saying is: - As one goes deeper in self search he finds many contradictions, for that he has to find a perfect reasoning on his own, because intellectual spoon feeding will not quench the thirst of the thirsty seeker.

As per my conviction derived from deeper inquiry, analysis and reasoning:  The memory, thoughts and the world are reality within the waking experience.  You are P and all your memories of your individual experiences, and also you perceive the world as an individual within the waking experience.  The waking experience appeared as whole, spontaneously, same way as the dream, which appeared as a whole,   spontaneously. You as P is not the author of the waking or dream experience, because you and your world exist within the waking experience.  You have not done anything on your own to get the waking and dream experience. They appear on their own and they disappear on their own.

The memory and thoughts are part of the individuality. The individuality is reality within the mind, which appears as waking or dream [duality] and disappears as deep sleep [non-duality].  Individuality, individual experiences and the world are present only when the mind [I] is present and they are absent when the mind [I] is absent. Therefore, there is a need to understand the fact that, the mind is not within the body, but the body and the universe are within the mind.  Until this truth is assimilated duality will prevail as reality.

Only when one investigates through deeper self search, then only   he will become aware of the fact that, the mind is the whole physical existence that is man including the universe, only then he will be able to cross the threshold of duality.   

Only when we find answers for all our queries, then the doubts and confusion will vanish and the thinking process becomes still. When the thinking process becomes still through wisdom, then there is only the soul which is in the form of consciousness.

This is what the biblical insight means: Be still and know that I am GOD. – Spiritually it means-- the mind becomes still by understanding the   SELF, [“I am” here is referred to the self, which is the soul] which is consciousness.

The stillness comes only when one understands “what is mind?”, and “what is the substance of the mind.” That understanding comes only through wisdom.

If this blogs makes anyone think, then, he will start getting answers from his inner core. It takes time for the inner core to respond, because of the barricades created of existing accumulated knowledge.   Only through deeper   inquiry, analysis and reasoning the barricade will fall away and the truth alone will prevail as non dual existence.
