Self—knowledge is the direct and infallible means of being aware of the ever-present and all enveloping the soul/self.



All the accumulation of  egocentric knowledge and physical activities are the cause of the ignorance of the soul, the innermost  self. Mind means illusion. Purity means the soul, the innermost self, which is present in the form of consciousness.


Everything belongs to the soul, the innermost self.  The three states are unreal and impermanent whether the five elements belong to duality. The duality is not reality.

There is no such thing as cosmic laws. The laws belong to duality and duality is not reality from the standpoint of the soul, the innermost self.  In reality matter and spirit is same because matter is a mere illusion created out of spirit.

 The matter is spirit. Those who become aware this truth realize can realize Brahman right here (in this very birth)   right now (not in the next world). The soul is unborn and incarnation of God as a human being is an idea based on the false self within the false experience because the soul is present in the form of consciousness pervades in everything and everywhere in all the three states. 

The Self is not the ‘I’. The ‘I’ is present in the form of mind.  The mind (I) is present in the form of the universe. And universe (I) appears as the waking (I) or the dream (I) and disappears as deep sleep.  The duality (I) is present only in waking or dream. The duality (I) is absent in deep sleep. That is the duality (I) is present the non-duality is absent. The non-duality is the nature of the soul. Therefore, the soul becomes mind. And mind becomes the soul. The soul and mind (I) are one in essence. That essence is the soul which is present in the form of consciousness. The consciousness is ultimate truth or Brahman. 

By becoming conscious existence  of the formless witness of the three states leads to self-awareness. Self-knowledge frees the seeker  from experiencing duality as reality.

Self—knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana is the direct and infallible means of being aware of the ever-present and all enveloping the soul, the innermost self.  the duality is product of  ignorance of the soul, the innermost self. Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana  is only sure antidote. Through Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana exposes the unreal nature of the mind(I) or universe. 

Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana frees  one  from  experiencing the illusory duality as reality. The entire search ends when one assimilates the Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana. The self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana helps to replaces, envelops and fills the space occupied by the illusory duality. That is, it helps to realize mind is created out of spirit, sustained by spirit and finally it dissolves as spirit(consciousness).

Holding the waking entity(ego)  as self is an error, which has to be rectified before proceeding in deeper in pursuit of truth. It is no use of wasting time in egocentric accumulated knowledge. The egocentric  inquiry will not yield any fruits. Until and unless the reasoning base is rectifies from form to formless it is difficult to understand and assimilate the non-dual istic or Advaitic truth.

People are stuck with their inherited accumulated ideas, and they refuse to verify the validity of their belief. Deeper self-search  revels the fact that, the self is   neither the waking entity , nor the dream entity but the self is the soul,which witnesses the coming and going of the three states.  Therefore, it is necessary to  know the self is not the form but formless, then base everything on the formless  self and judge the truth on the base of the formless  self.

On the base of the waking entity(ego), it is impossible to assimilate the self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana. There is no use of searching for truth in religion and religion based realities or physical based meaning of life. The fundamental error is taking the ‘I’ as self and viewing judging the three states on the base of the ‘I’, which is the false self, within the false experience.
