One may become a famous as a yogi and an exponent of yoga. Seeker of truth have to throw all that aside if he is seeking truth. It is time to realize the fact that, the yoga is delusive. yoga is not the means for Self-Realization because it is practiced on the false self or ego. if he is interested in acquiring non dual wisdom.
All those who are satisfied with meditation can continue with their practices but those who have become dissatisfied and found yoga and meditation is inadequate and useless after practicing for many years are ready for the path of wisdom.
The personal experience based on the physical self is not wisdom. When the physical body is not
the experience of the physical body itself, and the physical body is dependent
on something else for its existence. Then how the meditation performed on the
base of the physical body as self can get wisdom, by being ignorant of the
formless knower of the physical body. If
one knows the knower of the physical body and world, then he will realize the
knower’s nature it-self is meditative, because the knower is formless.
Ignorance makes us think the objective awareness [mind] is
reality. When ignorance vanishes the objective awareness [mind] vanishes, then
there is awareness of the subject, which is consciousness [soul]. When the ignorance vanishes unconsciously, it
is called deep sleep or meditation based on the physical self/ego or yogic Samadhi. When ignorance vanishes consciously it is
called wisdom.
Meditation is not the means to non-dual wisdom, because one
considers the self [author] as physical.
Thoughts, memories, world, body ego
exist only in ignorance. And ignorance [duality] prevails until one considers
the self as physical. If ignorance [duality] vanishes then one is automatically
in the realm of meditation [non-duality], which is the nature of the
consciousness.
Meditation does help to reduce the stress of the worldly
life. It is only helpful in preparatory
stages in pursuit of truth, but it is not the means to acquire non dual wisdom.
Wisdom dawns only from a well directed inquiry, analysis
and reasoning. When wisdom dawns the ignorance disappears, and one becomes
aware of the fact that, the objective awareness [mind] also is consciousness,
because it is created out of consciousness. The wisdom dawns in the midst of
ignorance. Without ignorance one cannot acquire the wisdom. Without wisdom one
cannot get rid of the ignorance.
Those who insist on the practice of meditation to test all their experiences and ideas for truth, but never the realize the results which will emerge after deeper self-search. It is for them to discover that the experiences of yoga are delusive. Those who are realize the yoga and meditation are inadequate and useless in quenching their spiritual thirst are ready for pursuit of truth.
