Illusion is manifestation of the soul/self






For Gnani there is clearly a change in his attitude that must be related to a change of the base from form to formless, thus the ‘I’ is no longer is the base. The ‘I’-less becomes the base and the waking becomes mere mirage.

Nothing exists, other then the spirit. There is no creation, no destruction and waking is a illusion on the standpoint of the soul /spirit.

Waking also is unreal. Its reality is exposed when one becomes aware of the fact that, the true self is not physical but the spirit. Only through inquiry and reasoning on the base of the soul, one becomes aware of the fact that “I "/Mind is mere illusion. But the “Self “is different from mind because the mind is mere mirage created out of the spirit, which is the true self.

What is the use of big theories based on the ego, which is false self when the truth is based on the soul, which is the true self?
Soul/spirit alone is real, all else is unreal; the illusion is created out of spirit. Thus the illusion is spirit in its essence.

Soul/spirit alone is real. There is no other reality besides the spirit. It is the source all the three states. It is the first cause and the only cause. Spirit is the material as well as the efficient cause of the duality/illusion.

Illusion is manifestation of the soul/self. The diversity is the effect of the soul. The inanimate illusion is filled with the soul/spirit. The illusory appearance is not different from soul/self in essence. The three states are unreal on the base of the soul, which is the true self. Thus man and his experience of the world is myth on the standpoint of the true self.
