The body and the world appear along with the waking experience.


The body,ego  and the world appear along with the waking experience. Thus, the body,ego  and the world are within the waking experience. Man feels he is an individual separate from the world within the waking experience. Man thinks he is born in this world and he lives in this world and he will die in future within the waking experience. Man thinks that, the world existed prior to him and he is born in it, within the waking experience. Thus the man and his experience of the world and his idea of birth, life,  death and the world  are reality within the waking experience. The waking experience is mere mirage on the standpoint of the formless witness, which is the soul. the soul is present in the form of consciousness. on the standpoint of the soul, the innermost self   the birth,life,death and the world,which happens within the waking experience is mere an illusion.  thus the human  has no meaning on the standpoint of the soul as self because humanity is part and parcel of the illusion. 

The seeker of truth has to pursue this quest until his questions will be answered, until his problems will disappear and his doubts will be solved.  Only through soul-centricity the truth will revealed.

Only in non-duality, where there are no two to argue about views or to have a difference of opinion can such doubtlessness be possible.  Belief depends upon unstable bases whereas certainty depends on proof.

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)

"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)

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)

Gospel Thomas Logan 22: - Jesus saw infants being suckled. He said to his disciples, “These infants being suckled are like those who enter the kingdom.”

They said to him, “Shall we then, as children, enter the kingdom?”

Jesus said to them,When you make the two one, and when you make the inside like the outside and the outside like the inside, and the above like the below, and when you make the male and the female one and the same, so that the male not be male nor the female is female; and when you fashion eyes in the place of an eye, and a hand in place of a hand, and a foot in place of a foot, and a likeness in place of a likeness; then will you enter the kingdom.”

It means –where there are no two (duality) there is Non-duality.  Non-duality is the nature of the  Spirit or God.

Consciousness  has no such thing as upper or lower (part), it has no inside or outside, it has no middle or any ‘across’, and it has no eastern or western direction, because it is all-pervading like space or pervades space also. It is one and without parts. It remains as the one self, free from all diversities.

Consciousness is formless and colorless; it is not tiny, nor big. It is neither short nor long. It is not knowable since it is of the nature of effulgence. It remains as the one self, free from the dualities.

Consciousness, which is the true self, does not have the state of waking, nor of the dream, nor of deep sleep. These three states are only the products of ignorance. Consciousness is beyond these three states and it remains as the one self, free from all three states.

Consciousness is all-pervading, is the desired goal, is self-existent, and is not dependent on anything else, while the entire universe which is different from it is unreal. Consciousness remains as the one self-free from all divisions.

Consciousness is not one; how can there be a second different from it? It has neither absoluteness nor non-absoluteness. It is neither void nor non-void since it is devoid of duality.  It cannot be described that which is the formless essence of the all the three states. 
The eternal truth within the universe (mind) and it is without the universe (mind). Direct knowledge of self can be acquired by one through the Self while realizing the Self. Self- realization is the essence of human existence. Where there is unity, one without a second; there is a world of non-dualistic or Advaitic  reality. The non-dualistic or Advaitic  truth is ultimate truth. And the ultimate truth itself is Brahman or God.
