The nonduality cannot be theorized. All theoretical nonduality is based on the false self.



The ego, body, universe are a mere mirage created out of  consciousness, which is the innermost self. Illusion   is like Banyan tree, which has roots above and branches below to reach the ground, where they root secondary trunks all around. One cannot recognize the beginning or the end; neither its shape.

The seeker has to  get rid of  this illusion with the sword of wisdom and realize the fact that,  the consciousness alone exists,  all else is mere mirage created out of consciousness.  Thus the ego, body and the world are mere part of the mirage. The one who is able to grasp this truth he becomes aware the birth, life, death and the universe are unreal on the standpoint of the true self, which is consciousness. Thus being judgmental on the base of the false self (ego) leads one  to  imaginary hallucinated  truth.

The non-duality cannot be theorized. All theoretical non-duality is based on the false self.  All the religious based non-duality is based on the false self. Non-duality has to be grasped and realized only through self s-search not by reading books, hearing sermons, mastering the scriptural knowledge. 

The seeker has to drop all the accumulated knowledge and verify the facts of his own existence.  

As long as a person clings to the belief in causality, the experience of duality will prevail as reality. But when this attachment to causality wears away, the duality becomes non-existent as reality.

The three states are created by false knowledge; therefore nothing in it is eternal. Everything, again, as one with Ultimate Reality, is unborn; therefore there is no such thing as destruction.

Birth is ascribed to the individual; but such birth is not possible from the standpoint of Reality. Their birth, life and death are part of the illusion. That illusion, again, does not exist.  The illusory sprout is born of the illusory seed. This illusory sprout is neither permanent nor destructible. The same applies to the individual and the world.

The term permanent or impermanent cannot be applied to the birthless self. What is indescribable in words cannot be discriminated about as permanent or impermanent.

As in dreams the mind acts through illusion, presenting the appearance of duality, so also in the waking state the mind acts through illusion, presenting the appearance of duality. There is no doubt that the mind, which is in reality non-dual, appears to be dual in dreams; likewise, there is no doubt that what is non-dual i.e. Consciousness, appears to be dual in the waking state.

The unreal cannot have another unreality for its cause, nor can the real have the unreal for its cause. The real cannot be the cause of the real. And how utterly impossible it is for the real to be the cause of the unreal!

As a person within the waking experience through false knowledge appears to handle objects, whose nature is inscrutable, as if they were real, so also, in dreams, he perceives, through false knowledge, objects whose existence is possible in the dream alone.

Gnanis teach causality only for the sake of those who, afraid of non-creation, assert the reality of external objects because they perceive such objects and also because they cling to various social and religious duties.

Those who, because of their fear of the truth of absolute non- creation and also because of their perception of external objects, deny non-creation is not affected by the evil consequent on the belief in creation. This evil, if there is any, is insignificant.

As the line made by a moving fire-brand appears to be straight, crooked, etc., so consciousness, when set in motion, appears as the perceiver, the perceived and the like.

As the fire-brand, when not in motion, is free from all appearances and remains changeless, so consciousness, when not in motion, is free from all appearances and remains Changeless.

When the fire—brand is set in motion, the appearances that are seen in it do not come from elsewhere. When it is still, the appearances do not leave the motionless fire—brand and go elsewhere, nor do they enter into the fire-brand itself.

The appearances do not emerge from the fire-brand, because their nature is not that of a substance. This applies likewise to consciousness, because of the similarity of the appearances.

When consciousness is associated with the idea of activity, as in the waking or dream, the appearances that seem to arise do not come from anywhere else. When consciousness is non-active, as in deep sleep, the appearances do not leave the non-active consciousness and go elsewhere, nor do they merge in it. The appearances do not emerge from consciousness, for their nature is not that of a substance. They are incomprehensible, because they are not subject to the relation of cause and effect.

A substance may be the cause of another substance and a non- substance, the cause of another non-substance. But the individual cannot possibly be anything like a substance or a non-substance.

The three states are not caused by the mind, nor is the mind caused by them because they are mind itself.  The mind is a myth on the standpoint of the consciousness as self. Hence one has to hold to the principle of absolute non-creation.

In a dream one sees the whole variety of individual,.  These entities, which are within the dream, do not exist apart   from the witness of the dream. Likewise, the dream is an object to the formless witness or true self or consciousness. Likewise the waking experience is also an object to the formless witness or consciousness.

The waking man, wandering about in all the ten directions in his waking experience, sees the whole the variety of individuals are within the dream. Similarly there are a variety of individuals in the waking world. The waking also disappears as a dream. The witness of the three states is within but it is apart from the three states.  It is within because it is the formless clay of the three states and it is apart as the formless witness of the three states, it is apart because it is not an entity or identity within the waking /dream.

The waking  or dream cannot exist independently without the formless witness/true self. There is no evidence of the existence of the one without the other; they are cognized only through each other.

The whole universe or waking experience (mind or universe) is made of the formless substance and it finally dissolves as that substance.



The consciousness, which is the innermost  self through the medium  of the physical  entity within the waking  experience begins to realize its  formless non-dual  true nature  , just as a person experiences the practical life within the practical world as reality within the waking experience.    when one realize the seeker and seeking and his realization of truth is possible  only within the illusion or duality or universe or wakingbecause the mind or  illusion  or duality or universe and waking are one and the same and they are product of ignorance.

When the aspirant becomes observed in the nature of the self, he is fully aware of what is real and what is unreal.  Just as worldly man wakes up from deep sleep, the aspirant who absorbed in the nature of the self becomes conscious gradually and settles gains and establishes in non-dual true base. The aspirant, who has established in non-dual base, will be in the position to judge and view the  three states  on the base of the formless consciousness,which is the   innermost self or Atman  or soul. 

Witnessing on the base of the formless  consciousness ,which is the innermost self, will gain him the knowledge of the dual and non-dual states of the  formless self, and he will be able to discriminate the relation between the witness and the witnessed, form and the formless, real and unreal, truth and the untruth.  As his conviction grows about the non-dual reality, the duality will prevail as mere mirage. Thus the birth, life and death become part of the mirage to the one who is able to view and judge on the base of the formless non-dual witness. 

When the aspirant becomes fully established on the non-dual base witnessing,  he can clearly see there is no difference between the witnessed , and the formless  witness. Since, they both are one in essence.  

As soon as the aspirant reaches the witness state, his journey commences through mental sphere or the spiritual sphere. Now the self becomes the master of the mind or experience of duality  (universe or waking). one can work on the base of the self , by using the physical body as an apparatus within the experience of duality. He can still remain in the waking  experience (diversity)  without taking physical authorship of the burden and bondage of the experience of diversity.  Thus one becomes free from the  illusory burden and bondage in the midst of the waking experience by knowing and realizing the innermost self is not the form but  formless consciousness.


When wisdom dawns  than the innermost Self will be able to operate in the midst  waking  experience  fully conscious of its formless non-dual true nature. 

Strictly speaking unless and until the non-dual base of witnessing is reached, no one really knows what the mind or ‘I’ actually is. Suppose the aspirant in the sphere of the experience of diversity and conceives the idea of seeing god is still in the intoxication of duality. Only when he becomes aware of the true self is not ‘Ibut the formless non-dual spirit or consciousness, he starts becoming aware of the fact that,  experience of duality(universe or waking) is mere mirage. 

In the waking  experience , the self works as its substance and witness fully immersed in the waking experience . But when it becomes self – conscious even in the midst of the experience of diversity remains unaffected within the happenings within the waking experience . Thus the self neither has the need to think not actually think; but it acts directly, and independently of the dual and non-dual sphere. 

To gain the non-dual faculty of actually seeing the whole universe or  waking experience  is created out one and only substance and there is no second thing other then that formless substance and that substance itself is also  the witness of the whole  universe or waking experience .  Therefore the formless substance itself is the self, from which the whole universe or waking  experience  is erupted and sustained and finally it dissolves and becomes one with it.  Hence the whole universe or waking  experience  (universe or mind) is made of the formless substance and it finally dissolves as that substance.

When the aspirant gets the firm conviction that the formless non-dual substance,which is consciousness  is the true self, than  he becomes aware of the fact that, the waking experience also is mere mirage as dream. Just as the dream becomes unreal when waking tales place the waking also  becomes unreal when it is viewed and judged on the base of the formless witness  or  true self. Therefore it is necessary for one to realize the true self, in order to overcome the illusory  nature  of cycle of birth, life death and the world .

Wisdom is to know the truth of one’s true  existence, and establish in  that truth.   one has to learn to view and judge the worldview on the base of the  formless consciousness which is the innermost self , in order to overcome the burden and bondage caused by duality in the midst of the experience of diversity.

It only when the final annihilation of ignorance, one is able to view and judge on the base of the true self, he reaches the state of perfection and free and fit to be called a Realized Mind or Gnani.  Therefore the whole universe or waking experience is nothing but mirage created out of  formless Atman or  consciousness .

One has to focus his attention on the formless substance and witness  of the ‘I’, and realize the fact that,  the Atman or consciousness  is pervading in all the three states that is in everything and everywhere in all the three states . Therefore there is no second thing exists other than the consciousness.  

There lies a conscious awareness of difference between the dual[waking or dream] and non-dual[deep sleep] experiences



There lies a  conscious awareness of difference between the dual(waking or dream)   and non-dual(deep sleep) experiences . In order to avoid misunderstanding once for the entire main point of pursuit of truth it is necessary to elucidate some important points. One has to make sure by mentally  tracing the Formless  witness (knower)of the appearance of the dual (waking and dream)] and non-dual (deep sleep) experiences.  

Without that Formless  witness, it is impossible to experience the dual and non-dual experiences .  Thus, it is necessary to focus complete attention on the formless  witness, to realize the fact that, the formless  witness of the three states of experiences , is the true self. On the standpoint of the formless  witness, all the three states of experiences  are mere illusion.

The inquiry analysis and reasoning revels the fact that,  the physical body is not the self. And it further reveals the fact that ‘I’ is not the self, but ‘I’ is the mind. mind is in the form of universe and universe   appears  as waking or dream and disappears as deep sleep. The formless  substance and the  witness of the ‘I’ is the true self. Therefore it becomes necessary to view and judge the worldview on the base of the formless  witness of the ‘I’, in order to unfold the mystery of the mind  or universe or waking and  and  to realize the un-contradicted truth or non-dual truth. That formless  substance and witness is Atman or consciousness . Thus Atman or consciousness is the true self.  It goes without saying people can never get the truth, who view and judge and theorize and philosophize on the base of ‘I’ as self. 

Only on the base of ‘I’ as self, birth, life and death, world, heaven, hell, sin, personal god and religion are reality. But on the base of  consciousness or Atman as self, they are part and parcel of the mirage. Therefore the Waking is also as real as dream.  All the three state have to be viewed and judges independently. The happenings and individual experiences within the dream and waking are noting to do with the innermost self ,which is ever formless.  Therefore the individual conducts prescribed by religion yoga  are not the means to realize the  ultimate truth or Brahman.

The question is to find out; what is it that is aware of the appearance and disappearance of these three states, which appear and disappears in succession?  The physical identities with in the waking or dream are false identity within the false experience , therefore it is erroneous to view and judge the truth on the base of false identity. Until and unless one becomes aware of the formless  witness is the true self, and it is the eternal identity, and learns to view and judge the worldview on the base of the formless eternal identity the truth will not be reveled.  

To begin with subject proper: he who actually begins inquire analyze and reason, threads the path in pursuit of truth, and begins to trace the obstacles and fatter on the pursuit, and will removes the obstacles and fatter by accepting the truth, and rejecting the untruth. And will have the yardstick to know what truth is, and what is untruth. Once he gets the yardstick to know the truth, the pursuit becomes easier and the truth starts unfolding on its own and he will have the firm conviction of un-contradicted truth.  

One may look conscious, subconscious or at time completely unconscious of the experience of duality, but once he begins to realize the knowledge of the self, he at all times fully conscious of the true self. There does not then remain least doubt of uncertainty in connection with what he experiences in the experience of diversity, just as worldly person never feel any doubt about having actual body  or any uncertainty about the pleasant and painful sensations he gets through his gross body.   

What happens just before one is about to start the truth pursuit, although he is aware of the fact that,  ‘I’ is not the self, there may be differences and doubts and confusions which has to be cleared by constant inquiry, analysis and reasoning  and assimilating un-contradicted truth.  

As one goes deeper in inquiry he gradually starts feeling the tranquility of the non-dual self and feels the experience of diversity is mere mirage created out of the consciousness,which is the innermost  self. 

The journey of reason brings joy to those who dare to accept the truth and drop the untruth mentally.



Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason, than that of blind-folded fear." --Thomas Jefferson


Religionists say doubt is a precipice on the way to God. But doubting the existence of god and trying to know the truth is the starting point of the pursuit of truth.


He who is freed from all the doubts and confusions by deeper inquiry, analysis and reasoning reaches the non-dual destination. Seeker has to follow the footprints of the Gnani and advance with care by means of such mental trekking; he will reach the source.

The journey of reason brings joy to those who dare to accept the truth and drop the untruth mentally.


The Seeker has to know the Formless witness (Atman or consciousness) of the three states ,which is, unborn, undying



The seeker has to know the Formless witness (Atman or soul or consciousness) of the three states , which is, unborn, undying.  It is never ceasing, never beginning. It is Deathless, birth less, unchanging forever. 

How can it die when it has no form? Same ways as the garments are shed by the body. Illusion (waking or dream) is shed by the Atman or consciousness, which is the innermost self. The waking or dream is a mere illusory veil of the formless  self . In deep sleep it is naked without the illusory veil.  But deep sleep is still the states of ignorance because one becomes aware of the deep sleep experience only in waking experience, which is falsehood from ultimate standpoint.     

Formless witness (Atman or consciousness) not wounded by weapons nor burned by fire not dried by the wind not wetted by water. Atman or consciousness  dwells within the illusion as it as formless substance and witness and remains forever indestructible. The seeker must be free the self from experiencing the duality as reality by realizing the fact that ‘I’ is not the self but Atman is the true self by the firm conviction derived by perfect understanding. 

The seeker must not desire for the fruits of his action he has to perform every action with his focus of attention fixed on the Atman or consciousness, which is the innermost self. He who knows the Atman or consciousness as the innermost self  self becomes even tempered in success and failure pain and pleasure and adversity and happiness.  Therefore seeker has to realize the fact that , Atman as the doer, and then act. That is the secret of non attachment.  

Atman or consciousness  is the true self and true self is the ultimate Reality. Just as the dream is superimposed on the Atman or consciousness  (F.W) the waking experience is also superimposed on Atman or consciousness  (F.W).  Thus the names and forms which appear as the waking experience or dream make up the superimposition. This is the unreal phenomenon. Thus the seeker has to realize the fact the burden of the experience of duality is not on the ‘I’, but on the formless witness of the ‘I’.  

Atman or consciousness  is the unchanging, formless, non-dual Self.  The man within the waking experience thinks the physical body or ‘ego’ as self; but he is unaware of the fact that,  man and the world are present only within the waking or dream.  Thus man and the world are the part of the illusory waking experience.  Until a man thinks himself as self and tries to view and judge the worldview he will not be able to grasp the knowledge of the true self .When one objectively sees this man and that man, this thing and that thing, and is deluded because he not aware of the fact that he and the world are within the waking experience. The author of the whole waking experience is the Atman, not the person. Thus it proves the fact that the burden of duality is not on the person within the waking experience but on the formless witness which witnesses the waking experience as a whole. 

Man is entangled with something or the other in this world. The true self is not the man who perceives the world within the waking experience.  Until and unless this inherited delusion that man is self he is deluded by duality experiences it as reality. Only when he analyzes the three states and becomes aware of the existence of the   formless witness of the three states  and realizes the fact that, the formless witness, which is Atman or consciousness , is the true self , then only he will be able to realize the fact that, duality mere illusion created out of consciousness  and able to focus his attention on the Atman or consciousness, which is the innermost self. 

When one  relates his  identity with some idea, and he is  attached to that being ‘he ’, then he  says that he is  old or young, parent or child, tall or short, rich or poor, etc.… It is man’s habit to take on identities and become attached to them… 

Atman or consciousness the innermost self is unattached, it isn’t identified with any labels, it isn’t attached to anything- it is not entangled with anything at all…’ 

When the seeker dives deeper through inquiry and reasoning on the true base, then he realizes the fact that,  the true self is neither ‘’ego’, nor ‘physical body ’.  And also realizes the fact that ‘I’ is  not limited to the body but 'I' is mind . And mind is in the form of the universe . The universe appears as  whole waking experience  or a dream. 

And again when the seeker reflects on this; his conviction grows firmer. Further he realizes the Atman or  consciousness  is eternal, and it is completely free of all bondage of the experience of duality. Atman or consciousness  is whole, and eternal - forever undecaying and indestructible… 

Make Atman (F.W) as true self and waking experience is mere  illusion as an Affirmation, for your-self. Remembering this reality whenever there is free time, gradually you’ll find you start becoming disengaged and separate from waking experience by viewing and judging the worldview on the base of Atman or consciousness  as self. And when you will re-emerge into this world of tags and identity, you’ll find yourself becoming detached and disinterested in the illusory waking experience of name and form…. 

The FP & IP & Non dualist Blogs and posts  are  posted for the purpose so that by reflecting on them constantly the suggestion goes into the subconscious and it becomes receptive.  Constantly   reflecting on the true self … through reading the messages reverses the thinking process to its source of the ‘I’. When one becomes aware of the fact ‘I’ is not the self but the formless witness is the true self,   then you’ll proclaim on the base of the true  self, ‘Nothing touches the innermost self , the innermost self is  not tarnished by any feelings or impulses.  Innermost Self  is not attached to anything at all…’

Scientists are able to monitor the pattern of brain activity through modern scientific equipments are based on the physical self.



Whatever, Scientists are able to monitor the pattern of brain activity through modern scientific equipments are based on the physical self.   The physical self and the physical activities are limited to the physical existence.  The physical existence is nothing to do with the ultimate truth.  The ultimate truth is that which is responsible for the creation and sustenance of the physical existence.  

The scientists and their invention are based on believing the physical self and its experience world as reality, whereas, the truth lies beyond physical existence.  Until Scientists discover, with what the physical body, is able to function itself as a person, and perceives the world, the truth will not be unfolded.  Therefore there is a need to know with what the physical body is able to know itself, because the physical body is not the knower of the physical body. Therefore, there is a need to be aware of the formless knower of the physical body to unfold the mystery of the mind.    

Until and unless scientists become aware of the fact that, the self is not physical their experiments will not yield any fruit.  The experiment on the physical body and trying to find the truth is like trying to drain the ocean drop by drop.    

Until scientists realize the fact that, the gross world is merged into the mental experience in the sense that when it is analyzed, it is found to exist inseparably in and as the mind alone. All "spiritual" planes are really mental: those who regard them as different or higher are taking the physical body and the world as reality. 

Scientists take the birth, life and death as a reality, there scientific invention are based on the physical awareness, they will not be able to go deeper into this subject, because they cannot cross the threshold of physicality.   

The modern equipment can investigate objects within the physical existence but it is impossible to investigate the physical existence as whole i.e. man and the world together.  The whole cannot be investigated with laboratory conditions.  Only through deeper thinking through inquiry, analysis and reasoning the whole has to be investigated.  

One has to reach the beyond the physical existence, mentally, and discovers, grasps the fact that, the physical existence is a mere mirage created out of single stuff; otherwise he will remain the conviction believing the duality is reality.  

Deeper inquiry, analysis and reasoning revel the fact that, the self is not physical but it is formless spirit. Therefore, it is erroneous to view and judge the truth on the physical point of view, because the self exists prior to physical existence.  Therefore, it is necessary to view and judge the truth on the standpoint of the base of the spirit, which is the true self.     

Religious Philosophies teach that all is self, but none of them can show that this is so. Theirs is mere dogma, parrotism, a repetition of what they read in scripture. They cannot prove it. The truth has to be analyzed scientifically with deeper reasoning and arrive at rational proof and gets the ultimate truth i.e.  Non-dual wisdom. Authoritarianism on the base of past inventions or philosophy mere assumptions and hearsay as truth, but the truth has to be proved beyond all the doubts.  

Unless one gives up the ideas of the physicality as reality, the ultimate truth is impossible. Ultimate Truth must be proved here and now. If that cannot be done, it is impossible to cross the threshold of duality.  Without knowing the fact that the self is not physical the Self –Knowledge is impossible to assimilate.  

The religious and yogic truths are physical truth. The physical truth is an individual truth, not universal truth. The truth of religion can only be proved by physical strength or by imagination, or power of the weapon or political power, never by reason.  

The scientists are yet to find mysteries beyond; they hope to discover it in the future.” The mystics say: That mystery unknown to science is known to them and Mysticism is the fulfillment of science. The mysticism is also physical based and it is impossible to acquire non-dual wisdom through mysticism. 

The mystics cannot experience the whole on the base of the physical body because the body and the world are within the whole.  So how can they prove that they have seen the whole? 

Mystics merely assume that they know it from experience.” If mystics experience joy or bliss, they cannot be egoless. The joy or bliss cannot be experienced without the ego.  Whatever is based on ego is physicality.  And if they retain the ego/physical self they cannot know the whole. Without knowing the whole the ultimate truth is impossible to grasp.
