The pursuit of truth is a personal journey. We have to remove all the obstacles by verifying deeply and remove all the hindrance in the way to understand assimilate the non-dual truth. Nothing has to be accepted because I am saying or some one is claiming. Everything depends on the level of understanding.
The look of an object will depend upon the medium through which the observer views it. In fact, one’s mental and intellectual conditions will determine the things observed and experienced.
An atheist viewing the idea of god differently will see it differently from the religionist viewing the same idea of god. Each one of us interprets the objects that he views in terms of his existing knowledge.
A man of truth is fully convinced and has the firm conviction that the truth lies beyond intellect. Only when one delves and becomes aware of the non-dual tranquility of the soul/true self and able to transcend consciously from his physical identification to formless identity [soul/spirit] is free from experiencing duality as reality.
The truth seeker has to check every religion and philosophy and find for himself, how they become an obstacle in pursuit of truth. I am not the propagator of Hinduism or any other religion. The religion has nothing to do with me. It is not only in Hinduism but also you find many spiritual insights in bible in Koran. Religion is based on the physical entity, whereas, spirituality is based on the soul/spirit. Therefore the religion has to be bifurcated from spirituality, because the religion is based on the body as self, whereas the spirituality is based on the soul as self.
