Waking or dream or astral or vision appears from the same Source and also disappears into the same source



Waking or dream or astral or vision appears from the same Source and also disappears into the same source. Waking or dream or astral or visions always have been, are, and will be connected to this Source because the substance and witness of all these  is consciousness.  This Source is soul or consciousness. thus the substance ,witness  and the source of  the waking or dream or astral or vision  are one in essence. Thus there is no second thing exist other than consciousness.  Therefore, the diversity  experienced within waking or dream or astral or vision has no value from ultimate standpoint.   It matters not which river we decide to swim in, for all rivers lead to the great ocean.

Each person is unique and singular, yet in our uniqueness we are one. Many people criticize others because their character, race, gender, personality, religious denomination are different from their own. This behavior is due to ignorance, of the source.  The ignorance is the cause of experiencing the duality as reality.

Many people are not aware that, waking or dream or astral or vision are    created out of single formless clay and  that clay  is the consciousness(soul),  the Source. The Source is unlimited. Taking this into account, it is yet so difficult for people to notice that the variety things and people and races within the waking or dream or astral or vision are  but a simple expression of the unlimited nature of the formless soul or consciousness, the innermost self.

 The differences are superficial and the similarities are deep and profound. A waking experience and dream are physically different, yet they are both experiences. Their individual uniqueness reflects the unlimited nature of the soul or consciousness ,the innermost self . One is not better than the other; they are simply different in their oneness.

A cloud   and ice are physically different, yet they are both water only in different states. This difference reflects the unlimited nature of the Source. Japanese would appear to be very different from European. The difference between them reflects the unlimited nature of the Source. The Japanese is no better than the European, nor vice-versa.  one does not contain more of the consciousness  than the other. They are simply different in their oneness.

Waking or dream or astral or vision is extremely different, physically. All of them are different aspects or expressions of the formless  consciousness , the innermost self.  The difference between them reflects the unlimited nature of the consciousness . No one is better than the other; they are simply unique in their oneness.


In all things in waking or dream or astral or vision, there is "spirit," and "matter." To reject matter is only to produce more of it. To overcome the ignorance one must know the truth, that  the matter also is spirit. Thus waking or dream or astral or visions are like ornaments created out single material gold. Thus on the standpoint of gold everything is gold. Without the gold the ornaments are non-existent. Similarly, without the formless  consciousness or soul ,  the waking or dream or astral or vision is non-existent. Therefore, nothing exist other then formless  soul or  consciousness, the innermost self.  Thus consciousness(soul) is ultimate truth or Brahman.

One cannot reach the non-dual destination by glorifying god and goddesses and by doing that, one goes deeper and deeper into ignorance.



Ritualistic  path, yogic path , devotional  are not path of wisdom. Soul-centric reasoning  helps the seeker to enter to Self-Awareness. And as his understanding  matures, he will be able to realize the fact that, the form,time and space are mere illusion and whatever is connected to form,time and space is illusory reality  created out of consciousness.  The consciousness alone is  is real and eternal.  Thus consciousness is ultimate truth or Brahman. 
 
Karma theory is based on the waking entity. Waking entity is false self within the false experience. Karma performed by false self within the false experience is bound to be falsehood.  Thus one has to realize the fact that, dream entity is also is false self within the false experience. Dream is considered as falsehood when waking takes place. Similarly the waking also becomes falsehood when wisdom dawns. Wisdom dawns when the waking entity realizes it itself is not the self in the midst of waking experience.  

Waking experience is state of ignorance. In the state ignorance one remains experiencing illusion as reality.  Till l illusion remains reality, he will remain ignorant of the fact that, the cycle of birth, life and death are mere mirage.  Therefore, it is not possible for one to accept the fact that, world is illusion, till  he becomes aware of the fact that , the self is neither the waking entity nor the self is dream entity but the self the formless soul or consciousness ,which is substance and witness of the three states.  Therefore, for those who believe the waking entity  as self, and refuse to accept the soul  as true self, find the law of karma as universal law and very sacred, because they have  blindly accepted their experience of  birth, life, death  and the world as reality without verifying  the validity of their  accepted truth.


Ish Upanishad says:-
10/11/12

Those people who have neglected the attainment of Self-knowledge and have thus committed suicide, as it were, are doomed to enter those worlds after death.

 This is a condemnation of people who do not try to attain Self-knowledge. They are, in a real sense, committing suicide, for what can be worse than being a slave to sense enjoyment, completely oblivious of the real purpose of life, which is to be your own master? In order to be your own master you have to realize that you are identical with Atman, the true Self, that you are Pure Consciousness, ever free, without name and form, and unconditioned.

You are not subject to any modification, without beginning and end, beyond thought and speech. You are Existence Absolute, Knowledge Absolute, Bliss Absolute. When you know this you are free. You no longer swing between birth and death. If you do not try to know who you really are, you are indeed committing suicide. You are inviting the ignominy of a slave's life in this world and a similarly unfortunate fate after death. , the Self, is one without a second, complete in itself. It never moves. It is always still, always the same, yet it moves faster than the mind. It is the power that moves everything, and it makes the whole world go the way it does. It gives

Those who mechanically perform sacrifices [avidya] go into darkness that is like being blind. But those who merely worship gods and goddesses [vidya] go into a deeper darkness. [IX]

"Blinding darkness' here implies ignorance. And those who worship gods and goddesses go into a deeper darkness because they seek rewards for their worship. As long as there is the sense of "I' and "mine' within us, there can be no Self-knowledge. When you say "me' and "mine' you automatically identify yourself with your body-mind complex. This shows that you are ignorant of your real Self, which is Pure Consciousness and which is also the Self of all. The sign of an ignorant person is in the way he uses the words "I' and "mine'. He says: "I am so and so. I own this much property,' and so on.

An ignorant person has many desires in his mind, and because of these desires he is born again and again. He has to have a body; otherwise he cannot satisfy his desires. But the more he tries to satisfy them, the more they grip his mind. This goes on endlessly. But it is given to a human being to think, reason, and discriminate. Thus he soon comes to realize that the path he has been following cannot give him peace of mind. He understands that he has to choose another path the path of renunciation. As long as he does not practice renunciation, he gropes in the dark like a blind man and he suffers.

There are two types of such people who grope in the dark. One type worships avidya (ignorance) that is, they mechanically perform the prescribed sacrifices without any thought as to why they are doing them. No wonder they grope in the dark. They are doomed unless someday the truth dawns on them that to save themselves they must seek Self-knowledge.


Worse, however, is the situation of the other type those who worship vidya. The word vidya ¸ usually means "knowledge', but here it is used to mean "gods and goddesses'. Some people worship gods and goddesses so that they may someday attain the same status. They may get their desire fulfilled, but this will only delay their liberation. That is why the Upanisad says that they will be in deeper darkness.


Scholars say that the path of avidya [performing aganihotra and other sacrifices] and the path of vidya [worshipping gods and goddesses] produce different results. Wise men confirm this. [X]

Vidya and avidya both are hindrances to Self-knowledge, but vidya is even worse than avidya. The word vidya is used here in a special sense; here it means worshipping gods and goddesses. By worshipping gods and goddesses you will go after death to the world of gods and goddesses.

But will that help you? The time you spend there is wasted, because if you were not there you could have spent that time moving forward towards Self-knowledge, which is your goal. In the world of gods and goddesses you cannot do that, and thus you go deeper and deeper into darkness.

Avidya is karma and therefore a hindrance. You perform avidya - i.e., you perform Agnihotra and other sacrifices. This is a roundabout way of purifying the mind, and it is also groping in the dark. But it may not have as heavy a toll on your time and energy as the other.


Isa Upanishads indicates that: By worshiping gods and goddesses and going to the world of gods after death is of no use.  The time one spends in ritualistic practices is wasted; one can spend same time moving forward towards Self-knowledge, which is the main goal. 

One cannot reach the non-dual destination by glorifying god and goddesses and by doing that, one goes deeper and deeper into ignorance. It surely indicates the fact that, the seeker of truth has to drop the worshiping god and goddess in order to get self-knowledge.

 the waking entity is not the  ‘Self  but 'Self is  the formless soul or consciousness.  The soul has no religion because it is formless. The religion is based on the form. without the form there is no religion.  the religion is based on false  waking entity (ego).  Thus whatever is known, seen, believed and experienced and accumulated on the waking entity is false hood because waking experience itself is falsehood.  The formless substance and witness of the falsehood is real and eternal.  Thus man and his idea of god and his religious beliefs and his experience of world are reality on the standpoint of the waking entity,which is the false self within the false experience. And they are mere mirage on the standpoint of the  formless soul or consciousness , the innermost self. 

If one is freed from religious truth, he has better chance unfold the mystery of his true existence and realize the true existence is not physical but the spirit. Religion is the source of all imaginable faiths and disturbances; it is parent of fanaticism of civil discord, and it is the enemy of the mankind because it does allow one to know the truth of the true existence.

One cannot examine illusive subject like God, soul, faith, love, anger and other non-material subjects under a microscope. But one can definitely evaluate their validity through deeper inquiry, analysis and reasoning on the base of the formless soul , the innermost self and  it  is the source from where the mind  or universe rises and subsides. It is necessary for the seeker of truth  to  verify the fact that, the self is not physical but the formless spirit before proceeding in pursuit of truth.

Truth realization is a very deep topic.  One might ask what truth -realization is? Truth realization is realization of the knowledge of the  innermost self to get unity in diversity.  Identifying the fact that the Soul , innermost self is the unified Whole.

 Self- knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana  is not theoretical knowledge based on the waking entity or ego] but the knowledge of the ultimate truth on which the physical existence (illusion) is dependent. Self-Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana  is the True Knowledge.


That which exists as universe doesn’t really exist. And that which really exists eternally doesn’t exist as universe




If one basis his -self on the  waking entity(ego)  to realize the truth of his true existence, he won't understand either his physical existence or his true existence. If one investigates basing his- self on the soul, the innermost self, he will understand, assimilate and realize the ultimate truth or Brahman.  Thus it is necessary to realize the fact that, the self is not  waking entity(form) but self is formless soul, which is in the form of consciousness.  Therefore, It is necessary to rectify the reasoning base from form to formless in order understand, assimilate and realize the non-dual  or Advaitic truth. 

Those who base themselves on the waking entity or ego will not be able to understand, assimilate and realize non-dual truth.  Egocentricity leads intellectuality. Intellectual truth is individual truth. Individual truth is not universal truth because individual truth is based on ego and holding the duality as reality whereas the ultimate truth is non-duality based on the formless soul or consciousness the innermost self. On the base of the soul or consciousness,  no second thing exist other than consciousness. Hence it is non-dual.   Non-dual truth is universal truth.  

Intellectuals will not be able to grasp the non- dualistic or Advaitic truth, because they think what they know is ultimate truth.  All their understanding is based on the form (waking entity or ego) not formless (soul). People who are able to grasp the fact that, the self is not the form (ego or waking entity) but the self is formless soul realize that the mind is in the form of universe and universe is mere mirage created out of formless consciousness (soul), the innermost self. 

Through wisdom one is able to transcend the illusory duality. The absence of ignorance is true wisdom.

Seen with true vision, universe isn't universe, because universe in in the form of mind. Mind is in the form of ‘I’. ‘I’ appears as waking or dream and disappears as deep sleep. The mind    depends on consciousness.  Consciousness (soul) is independent.  Thus consciousness is the cause of the mind or universe but it itself is uncaused. 

When one is able to realize the self is formless and on  base of the formless self and  mentally negate whatever is based on the form(waking entity)  by realizing whatever exists as universe is mere mirage created out of  formless consciousness(soul) the innermost self.    Thus the mirage has no value in the realm of truth only the formless substance and witness of the mirage or universe are real and eternal. The formless substance and witness are one in essence.  And that essence is formless consciousness.  Thus the consciousness alone is real and eternal.   From ultimate standpoint everything is one. 

That which exists as universe doesn’t really exist. And that which really exists eternally doesn’t exist as universe but it exists as formless soul or consciousness the innermost self. This is the truth. By means of Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana  one becomes aware of the fact that   whatever exists   as universe in which he exists is mere mirage created out of consciousness therefore his existence as an individual is part and parcel of that mirage.  Thus, the experience of birth, life and death, which takes place within the mirage, is bound to falsehood because the innermost self is birthless because it is formless. 

Whatever is seen through physical eyes is reality within the mirage because the man perceives the world within the mirage.  The one which witnesses the man and the world together without the physical apparatus is the formless soul, is in the form consciousness.  Thus consciousness is the innermost self. On the standpoint of the innermost self    the body is not the body, the ego is not the ego the world is not world but everything is nothing but consciousness. Thus no second thing exists, other than consciousness. Thus consciousness is ultimate truth or Brahman. 

Form ultimate standpoint nothing exists other than consciousness.  Form, time and space are one in essence.  Thus form, time and space are mere delusions. Reality is without the sense of form, time and space.

  That is when the mind or universe or illusion appears, reality disappears. When the mind or universe or illusion disappears, reality appears. Whoever has realized the mind or universe or illusion depends on soul or consciousness and consciousness in independent has found the ultimate truth or Brahman. 

The soul and the mind   are opposites, and wisdom arises when they become one in essence. When there is no mind than there is no universe.  When there is no universe there is no waking experience. Thus mind or universe or waking or dream is one and the same thing.  Thus perfect understand of what is what is very much necessary to reach the ultimate end.  

The "Kingdom of God" (heaven) is within - it is not a place to be reached, rather the truth of one’s true existence, which is beyond form, time and space.



Many  biblical  insights  lead to non dual  Self-awareness. Since people  are stuck with the physicalized meaning of  the insights it is becomes difficult to grasp the real essence of the Bible.     

Christ is not physical.  Christ means  ultimate Truth. To know the truth one has to accept the the soul, the innermost self  as Christ . The soul or Christ   has no religion, thus the religion is for those who think Christ   is outside of their soul.    The insights in the Bible, which is in the form of parables, leads  to Self -awareness or Christ consciousness. 
 
In the Holy Bible first says:-there is GOD and then it says GOD is within and finally it says SELF is GOD. [They misinterpret it as I AM GOD] 

Spirit is my father; I and my father are one. – Soul, which is in the form of formless Spirit [father] ‘I’ [mind or universe] are one. Soul and mind are one in essence.  Therefore there is no second thing exists other than formless Spirit [Father or GOD] – everything is Spirit or God [Consciousness].     

If the Biblical insights are physicalized than it gives dualistic meaning.  Only when we are able to view and judge the worldview on the base of the Spirit, which is the innermost self, we will be able to recognize the Advaitic or non-dualistic essence hidden in the Bible. 

People who are conditioned by religion will not accept anything other than their accepted truth.   The scriptures are meant for those who are stuck the practical life within the practical world as reality.

Jesus said:-  "Know what is in front of your face, and what is hidden from you will be disclosed to you. (THE GOSPEL OF THOMAS- Saying 5)

It means one has to know the world which confronts him confronts to realize his body and world are made of the same essence and that essence is Spirit [father].  

"Jesus said:-"Those who seek should not stop seeking until they find. When they find, they will be disturbed. When they are disturbed, they will marvel, and will reign over all." (Gospel of Thomas 2)


"The Kingdom of God is inside you and all around you, Not in a mansion of wood and stone.  Split a piece of wood and God is there, Lift a stone and you will find God." (Gospel of Thomas)

The "Kingdom of God" (heaven) is within - it is not a place to be reached, rather the truth of one’s true existence, which is beyond form, time and space. 

 When the seeker indulges in deeper self-search than he realizes  the fact that, the experience of birth, life, death and the world are mere illusion created out of spirit [consciousness], which is the innermost self .    

The formless soul or consciousness is the innermost self   and it is the cause of the form, time and space and it itself is uncaused. Thus soul or spirit is the ultimate truth or Brahman or Christ or Buddha’s nature.    

Corinthians 3:17:  Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.

 According to the New Testament, Jesus said to his disciples: ‘To you it has been given to know the secrets of the kingdom of God; but for others they are in parables, so that seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand’ (Luke, 8:10). While speaking to the multitude in a veiled manner, ‘privately to his own disciples he explained everything’ (Mark, 4:34), and advised them not to ‘throw your pearls before swine’ (Matthew, 7:6).

Therefore Self-Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana is necessary to realize the ultimate truth. Self –Knowledge or Brahma Gnana it is only for those who has intense urge to know the ultimate truth or Brahman or Inner Buddha or Christ.   

That is why Jesus said: - not to ‘throw your pearls before swine’ (Matthew, 7:6). (Swine here means is ignorant).  –FB –FP –BCG 

 The restless minds [swine’s] will follow religion, because they are not ready yet to understand and assimilate the Self-Knowledge or Truth  [pearls]. There is no use of throwing pearls at them, because they have become fanatics about their inherited beliefs and ideas.  However, the seeking mind, which is capable of grasping, will recognize the fellow seekers and shares with the fellow seeking minds, and moves ahead towards its destination and becomes one with Christ, which is in the form of pure consciousness.  .


Christ means Truth. To know the truth we have to hold  Christ as our innermost self. The soul has no religion, thus the religion is for those who think Christ  is outside of their soul.    The insights in the Bible, which is in the form of parables, leads to Self-awareness or Christ consciousness or Atmic -Awareness.
