One cannot reach a non-dual truth without self- knowledge

A serious seeker cannot escape without finding answers   to the most important questions such as "What is all this life about?", "What is he?", "What is the purpose of his existence?" or "Why is he here?"etc.

The so called spiritual babble existing in the world and the fight among the religions and their theory has no space here, and no connection in pursuit of truth.  The belief system and its knowledge   are not spirituality ,because they are based on physicality.  The religion  is based on physical existence and accepts the physical existence  as reality, whereas spirituality is based on the spirit/soul and accepts only  spiritual existence as ultimate reality .

Pursuit of truth is not for people, who have tried seeking their answers from religions, gurus or masters.  And it is not for those who find satisfied with their accumulated scriptural, intellectual and theoretical knowledge.  Pursuit of truth is not for those   who think that they will find answerers easily through their intellect or within the scope of their belief system.

The Self-knowledge eradicates belief or faith completely from it. It is based on perfect understanding and one can verify through deeper thinking through inquiry, analysis and reasoning on the base of the soul, which is the true self.   Seeker has to learn to view and judge the truth on the base of the soul to understand and assimilate the nondual truth. After he learns to view and judge on the base of the soul in period of time he will be able to understand and assimilate the Self-Knowledge.


Seekers cannot find the truth (knowledge) by themselves and requires help from fellow seekers who have gained it. Such knowledge comes from advanced seekers   who have escaped the prison of physical identification ". A seeker who cannot work on themselves alone with limited amount of information as far as work on raising consciousness is concerned. It requires a clear cut understanding of the road map and pitfalls to understand where it would lead them or where they can be ditched.

Man is a prisoner within the illusory world. Man thinks himself he is born in this world and lives and dies in this world. This conviction makes him prisoner within the illusion. Deeper inquiry, analysis and reasoning lead him to perfect understanding of the fact that, the self is not physical but the spirit.  Therefore, viewing and judging and concluding the truth on base of physical self is erroneous. Therefore there is a need to rectify the base of judging the truth from form to formless.   

Prisoner in the prison is under strict vigilance and none of its prisoners can run away. They cannot escape from the main gate. Now assume a man's condition similar to this prisoner of this jail. The first thing he must understand and verify that he is in prison and he wants to escape it. After some duration of work on self one can verify that he is in prison! So there should be enough urge to escape this prison. This prisoner alone cannot do this as he will have to dig a tunnel to escape this prison, there is no way out from the main gate. To dig a tunnel he will require some tools which should be supplied to him from somebody outside the prison and who knows where to dig and where to come out from, therefore he will require a clear map to escape the prison. A person who has already escaped and knows the way of this prison can only show and guide him the right way.

He will have to dig a big tunnel without making noise and there is a great toil required and he cannot do this alone. He will require some other prisoners who are willing to escape as when the tunnel is dug there will be lot of suffocation and he might fall unconscious and there should be some others to awaken him from that state and help him to start digging again!

So once one has the map, the tools and  few  people it becomes easy to escape the prison or the trap you are in but through working upon oneself first one must verify the idea that man is in prison and he is asleep!

Deeper inquiry, analysis and reasoning revels the knowledge.  Unless one is receptive and sharp enough to grasp the nondual truth, he cannot find the truth /knowledge by himself and it requires help from others who have gained it." After deeper inquiry, analysis and reasoning and homework he will find and understand and able to assimilate the Self-Knowledge.

One  may find that he is  stimulated intellectually and reasoning  oriented and there is great mental toil required to understand digest the knowledge it serves but later after sometime of work upon himself he will understand that it travels ahead later beyond physicality towards reality of the true existence .


The state of waking or dream is turmoil of constantly flowing thoughts, change of moods
or emotions, negative emotions, and a dreamy state; one is  constantly under the state of imagination which over takes his  complete life; his  identified with such state.

One continuously identified with all which is happening around him within the waking and dream experiences.  One is surrounded by all the influences coming to it from the world within the waking or dream and he reacts to such influences as if he is a machine by his nature. But one is unaware of the fact that the self is not physical but the spirit. Once one becomes aware the self is the spirit then he is out of the prison of physicality.


Self-knowledge will shake the very base walls of his belief system and understanding of life till date. The early one understands the falsity of his understanding till now the more good it is for him.


Pursuit of truth is not some form of a course of short duration or long duration or nor it is about practicing some physical or breathing techniques to reach the higher state of consciousness. It requires a great toil of work on one self. Seekers who are receptive and sharp will be able to grasp, assimilate and realize it in lesser time and effort.

Circumstances, inherited conditioning, accumulated knowledge, which is main obstacle in pursuit of truth. Many are not able to do anything other then accepting the duality as reality and remain in the prison of illusion.

One cannot reach a non-dual truth without self- knowledge. One must have a clear cut understanding between information and knowledge.

Experience and experience less states are created out of one single substance.

Intellectuals object the difference between state of experience [waking, dream] and experience-less state [deep sleep] are like different part scene of the same single substance.

Until and unless seeker inquires, analyze and reasons he cannot prove to himself and get conviction that the whole experience of diversity is created out of one single substance.

Some says the mystic experience gives peace and bliss. When the inquiry and reason reveals the fact that the physical body is not 'I', then what is there, to experience the bliss and peace as a person? One can only assume thus.

When man is an experience of some invisible experiencer, and fully dependent on that invisible experiencer for his existence, how can man claim, the authorship of the experience, when he, himself is not his experience.

Therefore, it is for the seeker to find out, “What is that functions as physical body and perceives the world as a person?" to go beyond the psychology.

Intellectual and logical finding has no value in pursuit of truth. Since man cannot take authorship of his own experience, when some invisible experincer is experiencing, man and his world together.

Thus, there is a need to deeper inquiry, analysis and reasoning to unfold the mystery of the mind.
