It is impossible to judge the truth on the physical entity,



Until one has the conviction that he is born in this world and world existed prior to him, he will not be able to assimilate self-knowledge. When he realizes the fact that, he and his experience of the world co-exits together and disappears together then he becomes aware of the fact that the physical entity is not the self. Therefore, it is impossible to judge the truth on the physical entity, and come to some conclusion and conviction and then accepting the imaginary truth based on the false self as ultimate truth is mere theory based on the false self.

Self-knowledge comes through one's own direct realization of truth, not through beliefs and dogmas or by following religious code of conducts. The religion and its concepts have value with in the illusion, and have nothing to do with the truth, which is based on the soul.

The three states come into being because of ignorance of the permanent self. Thus, they have no existence of their own without a permanent self, which is the soul. There is neither the three states nor the witness; only nondual reality.

Only when the wisdom dawns the waking become unreal. The man who believes himself as a person born in this world and world existed prior to him will not be able to assimilate self-knowledge.


What's most important to understand about the three states is that they are unreal in their nature. They are mere appearances, because there are impermanent. Thus the physical self/ego is not the self because it is limited to the waking/dream. The true self is the formless substance and witness of the three states, which is the soul. The soul is apart and permanent. The soul is the true self because the three states are dependent on the soul for their existence, whereas the soul exists with or without the three states, which appear and disappear in succession.
The physical is not an integral, autonomous entity. The individual self, or what we might call the ego, is part of the waking/dream. The ego ceases to exist without the waking/dream.
If one can view the three states on the standpoint of the soul as self, he becomes aware of the fact that, the true which is the soul is not subject to the birth, life and death. The true self is only formless substance and witness of the three states.
To understand and assimilate this truth there is no need for the seeker to lose him self in the labyrinths of philosophy, but goes straight to the source from which they all arise and subside.

Everything here refers to Ataman, because everything [three states] is created out of soul/spirit. On the standpoint of soul/spirit there is nothing exists other then the soul. Thus everything, which is soul/spirit, is perfectly perfect. People who view and judge on the standpoint of the physical self/ego will not understand this because they see diversity as reality. They think ‘I’ is self, and body is illusion, whereas, the body and the ‘I’, both are part of the illusion. They think whatever exists within the waking experience that is, man and his experience of the world as reality.

There are so many obstacles if one tries to reach non-dual destination through physical/ego based paths and practices. Therefore, physical/ego based paths and practices are round about way to reach the non-dual destination.

The scholars are sentimentally and emotionally involved with their inherited philosophy which is based on the scriptures they will not be able to grasp the non dual truth. The nondual truth has to be grasped without the religion, scriptures and god glorification.
