The true Self is not individual








The true Self is not individual. There is no diversity in reality. Waking gives the illusion of diversity. Thus there is need to trace the formless substance and witness of the three states in order to realize the three states are mere mirage.
The mirage and the formless witness of the mirage are one in essence. There is no second thing exist other then the formless substance of the mirage, which is the soul which is in the form of spirit. The words, names, forms and thought and experiences have no meaning because they have been created out of one single stuff.

The body is not our true self



One has to realize the fact that body is not our true self. The true self is that which witnesses the body and the world together. There is unity in diversity when one bases himself on the formless soul/spirit as self. But when one bases himself on the physical entity the diversity becomes reality. Therefore, there is a need to indulge in deeper inquiry, analysis and reasoning to overcome the ignorance that, ‘I’ is not the self, but the truth is formless witness of the ‘I’ is the true self, in order to realize the duality is mere mirage.
The truth can’t be described but grasped because it exists without words!

No scriptures or holy books are needed in pursuit of truth




When people speak of reincarnation from physical point [‘I’] of view, this is confuses many people. So they do not accept the idea of no incarnation and accept the reincarnation theory. Even in Advitha they propagate on both incarnation and no incarnation theories. Deeper inquiry revels the fact that neither the body nor the mind [‘I’] is the Self. Therefore, all the accumulated knowledge based on the ‘I’, which is the false self, is bound to be falsehood.

There is no need to indulge in blame game and hold one philosopher is right and another is wrong. One has to indulge in deeper inquiry, analysis and reasoning and find for himself what is right and what is wrong or what truth is and what is untruth.

There is no life after death on the standpoint of the soul as self. As man and world are part and parcel of the illusion, it is erroneous to base the truth on the false physical entity, which is the part of the illusion. There is no end to the argument based on the false self [‘I’]. No one reaches the realization of the truth when one bases himself on the false self['I'] and try to realize the truth.

No scriptures or holy books are needed in pursuit of truth other then knowing “What is “Mind?” and “What is no Mind?
