People are making unlimited sacrifices and enduring unlimited
suffering in the name of protecting their religion and god. They are therefore
ignorant about the truth and incapable of understanding the ultimate truth,
which is universal god. All organized religions have unequivocally claimed man
for the life in the truth; thus it is sheer folly to fight in the name of
religion and god.
It is time that humanity had a fresh vision of truth that the
mind, which is in the form of universe, is myth and consciousness is the only
thing that is real and that matters. On
the base of consciousness as self, the physical life is a vain and empty
pursuit of illusory values.
Parental grooming is the main cause of religious influence upon the
mass mind-set and it cannot be wiped out without knowing the truth of one’s own
existence. Thus, teaching children to view and judge everything on religious
point of view by their parents, which warps the minds and destroys the capacity
to think beyond the belief system of their grooming.
People who are yearning for spiritual truth will not find it
what they are seeking for. Religious truth is individual truth and it is not
universal truth because the religion is based on individuality.
As one goes in deeper investigation find nothing satisfying in any
religion. The more he learns of any
religious doctrine they become aware of the fact that, the religion is not the
means for self-realization because the true ‘Self” is not the form but the true
self is formless. The religion is based
on the false self [ego] and false experience [universe]. Religion takes the
false self as real self and false experience as reality. Thus whatever is based
on the false self and false experience is bound to be falsehood.
The obsession with "our sins" having been "washed
away by water of river would be regarded
as evidence of a serious mental illness in an individual within any sane
society, but when this is an obsession of millions of people it becomes
"religious faith", held by many others to be something that should
never be criticized.
It was desperately important for the believers of their belief
system for some reason that others
shared their beliefs because they assume that their religious doctrine is
literally true, and then justify their beliefs because "God says so in
their doctrine ".
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.
Deeper inquiry revel the fact that, the self is neither the body, nor the ego. If the self is not the body nor the ego then
it proves the fact that, whatever is seen, known, believed and
experienced on the base of the self as
body or ego is bound to be false hood.
Thus arguing on the standpoint of the body or ego, which is not the “self”,
is erroneous. Thus the whole argument has
to be based on the true self, which is not the body or ego. Thus it is necessary to realize the fact
that, the “self” is not the form but the “self” is formless in order to realize
the Advaitic truth.
