Ataman the true Self is hidden and pervades in everything and everywhere in the three states



Ataman the true Self is hidden and pervades in everything and everywhere in the three states as their formless substance and witness; but it is seen by Gnanis through their one—pointed and subtle intellects.
The serious seeker should merge his speech in his mind and his mind in his intellect by understanding the fact that all his experiences are created out of Ataman/spirit.
Seeker has to arise! awake and learn to know the fact that the experience of duality [waking/dream] is created out of Ataman, without understanding this fact , there is no unity in diversity. The path of truth is Like the sharp edge of a razor, so it is hard to tread and difficult to cross without perfect understanding and without the guidance of Gnani
Having realized Ataman, which is soundless, intangible, formless, undecaying and likewise tasteless, eternal and odourless; having realized That which is without beginning and end, beyond the Great and unchanging—one is freed from experiencing the duality as reality.
It is through Ataman that one perceives all objects in sleep or in the waking state. Having realized the vast, all—pervading Ataman, one enters into non dual tranquility.
He who knows the soul as true self, the formless experiencer of the three states, as Ataman, free from experiencing the past ,present and the future as reality.
Ataman is undistorted Consciousness. He who meditates on Ataman is free from experiencing the pain and pleasure as reality, liberated from the bonds of ignorance; he becomes free from experiencing the diversity as reality.
The soul, when identifies with the body and dwelling in it by experiencing the duality as reality. If it is torn away from the body and its experience, is freed from it, what then remains? Whatever prevails is non dual Ataman.
The Ataman/soul, which remains awake while the sense—organs are asleep, shaping one lovely form after another that indeed is the Pure, that is Ataman and that alone is called the Immortal. All three states are contained in Ataman and none can pass beyond.
