Formless Path is neither a teaching nor a theory but it is mere guidance to those who are seriously seeking truth.




 Trevor Light Bown:-

Can you tell me what you think. ?

They all agree with your Formless Path teachings.




Dear Trevor,  


Formless Path is neither a teaching nor a theory but it is mere guidance to those who are seriously seeking truth. The ultimate truth can be grasped  any time, any age, if seeker has spiritual maturity and capacity to grasp to grasp it.   It really depends on his inborn natural capacity to understand and assimilate it.

  FORMLESS PATH   is a self-examiner, to test oneself to discover how near to Gnana he has approached and what progress has already been made on the path and what still remains to be done.  It sets up criterion for self-judgement.  


There are millions in search of truth but one in million will be able to grasp it.  I am just posting what revels from the inner core. I just share to help the serious and sincere seekers.   I am highlighting the obstacle in the pursuit of truth, which blocks one from realizing the ultimate truth or Brahman.  Self-Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana is not based on any teaching or teacher. Pursuit of truth is pursuit of verification not pursuit of argument.   Intellectual discussion is great hindrance in pursuit of truth.

All the FP and IP blogs are verified truth. If one goes on reading all his doubts and confusion will start clearing. It takes time to receptive to Self-Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana because it is soul-centric knowledge whereas all accumulated knowledge are egocentric.

Formless path highlights all the obstacles in the inner journey and how to overcome these obstacles.    All accumulated knowledge is of no use in path of wisdom. 

  I am not trying to prove my views, but it is for every seeker,  who is in the path of truth to realize  himself  “What is truth, “and “What is untruth?” to assimilate the Self –Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana in lesser time and effort. 

When one is unable to quench his spiritual thirst from his guru or teaching he has to look elsewhere to clear the cobwebs of his understanding and to move forward in his spiritual quest.

It is no use of arguing with someone who has faith in his belief system because for him there can be no possible refutation of what he believes, so rational argument is entirely useless. He clings to his belief so strongly that he makes no distinction between the truth and his belief. One has to know the fact that,  god cannot exist without his existence. The truth does not depend on gods’ existence but it entirely depends on man’s existence.   Thus it is foolish to venture in knowing the truth of gods existence without verifying the facts about his own existence. 

It is difficult for tradition-bound people to accept anything as truth other than what they inherited from then in born and inherited conditioning and parental grooming and their accumulated knowledge. Only intense urge to know the truth and courage to accept the truth after verification with better understanding one will be able to drop all his accumulated dross, which is the main obstacle in Self-Realization.

As one moves deeper and deeper in his inner (mental) journey than he realizes what is written FORMLESS PATH blogs are true and he will become more receptive to Self-Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.

Sages of truth have always insisted on practice rather than theory. This applies particularly to those who want to know and realize ultimate truth or Brahman.  

 One has to  know and realize his inner most self is Soul and identify it as his true identity to find liberation from the bondage of  the illusory experience of  birth, life, death and world(duality).   The goal of our life is to find and realize our identity with our soul, which is our innermost self.
