The religious, yogic and worldly truths are individual truth based on the ego.


Dalai Lama said:  Buddhism need not to be the best religion though it is most scientific and religion and inquisitive. But Buddhism has no answer to certain questions like existence of Atama [soul] and rebirth.   Dali lama said that as an individual he believes in rebirth as he had come across a few cases of rebirth.  Modern science, Dalai Lama hoped would unearth the mystery behind the rebirth. [In DH –dec-212009-Gulburga].

Same way all religions of the world and all philosophies of the world are based on the individuality/ego, find no answers for many questions. Truth seekers all over the world are trying to find answers for themselves, and they imagine and write articles and books of their ideas and others will read and blindly accept them as truth.

 There is no need to condemn any ones’ views and ideas or writing, but without being judgemental, seeker has to verify whether the author is speaking on the standpoint of ego, or whether he is speaking on the standpoint of soul/self.  If his views are based on the standpoint of the physical self/ ego, then there is many doubts and confusion. If his views are based on the soul as self then there is no confusion and doubts of any sort.   

Nothing has to be accepted without verifying the validity of any claim in pursuit of truth. Only un-contradictable truth has to be accepted as truth.  There is no need to condemn any religion or any saints or sages, but seeker has to think beyond religion, scriptures and individualized gods.   

The religious, yogic and worldly truths are individual truth based on the ego.  The spiritual truth is universal truth, which is based on the self/soul/spirit. The truth which is based on the soul/self is the ultimate truth/Brahman/Christ/Emptiness.  

The religion is based on the body [form] as self, since it is based on the birth. Spirituality is based on the soul [formless]. Thus there is need to bifurcate the religion from spirituality. Religion views and judges on the standpoint of the physical self/ego, whereas the in pursuit of truth everything is viewed, judged and concluded on the base of the soul, which is the true self.  Whatever is based on the physical entity is not spirituality because the soul has no form, so it has no religion.  Therefore, seeker of truth has to rectify the seeking base, from form to formless, to understand and assimilate the Self-Knowledge.    

Thus, viewing judging the ultimate truth on the base of ego/false self or accumulated knowledge will not unfold the mystery of the mind/diversity.  There is no need of religion, god glorification and scriptures in pursuit of truth, since the Soul/Self/Christ is doer and author of our dual and nondual experiences.

Experience of diversity [form] becomes oneness in deep sleep and Oneness [formless] becomes diversity in waking or dream. Therefore, that which becomes diversity [form], and that which becomes Oneness [formless] is not our physical entity, because the physical entity is present only in waking and dream. The one, which is aware of all the three states, is formless, apart and eternal which is the soul. The soul, which is spirit itself, is ultimate truth/Christ/Brahman/Buddha.   

 To realize this truth one has to realize first “What is truth? and “What is untruth?” between the dual [waking/dream] and nondual experiences.  Searching the truth on the base of inherited religious conditioning and accumulated bookish/scriptural knowledge is not the means to self/god /truth realization.
