To realise truth, seeker has to first know the fact that, ‘I’ /mind is not the self.







To realise truth, seeker has to first know the fact that, ‘I’ /mind is not the self.  ‘I’ /mind is mere mirage created out of the soul, which is in the form of spirit. The soul/spirit is the formless substance and witness of the ‘I’/mind. The soul is the true self. The truth will start unfold itself, when one learns to view and judge the truth, on the base the soul, which is the true self. 

The man and his world are mere appearances. These appearances appear as waking/dream.   The whole appearance of waking or dream is mind. Because when the mind is there then only the waking or dream is there. Absent of mind absent of appearance.  Absent of appearance absent of duality/diversity.  Absent of diversity there is only unity.  Thus, the truth pursuit is a journey from diversity to unity. 

The diversity is created out of single stuff that is the formless spirit. Thus all the forms and shapes within the waking or dream is created out of single stuff. In deep sleep there is no diversity. The one which is aware of the appearance and disappearance of the diversity is formless.  

Seeker has to reflect upon the nature of the self, which is Consciousness as distinct from the physical consciousness. Thus the Self, the Inner Reality, is seen behind appearance.
Seeker of truth has to understand “What mind is” leads one to know and realize   of the Ultimate reality. Wisdom clears all doubts and confusion and removes the obstacles in the mental journey, and leads one towards inner reality.
