All the contradictions are based on the ego.





One has to waste his time to know the timeless entity in pursuit of truth. Pursuit of truth is not for those who are time conscious, because along with time they are conscious of form and space, whereas the truth is beyond form, time and space. Therefore, it is difficult for those who are conscious of time to grasp the truth, expounded through these blogs . Thus, whatever is written in these blogs  not to  be accepted as truth without verification.

All the contradictions are based on the ego. The thoughts and words are present when the ego is present. Absent of ego is absent of words and thoughts, world and contradictions.

Most people think, what they know is truth, because each one of us interprets knowledge we knows in terms of our existing knowledge. And many have made a preconceived yardstick holding some teacher or teaching as the yardstick, because of that they are unable to accept anything as truth other than their accepted truth. But the truth lies beyond all the teaching and teacher. Teaching and teaches are mere pointers towards truth they are not truth in itself. It is for the seeker to verify all the facts and move forward and realize the truth.

Even Upanishad say:

This Ataman cannot be attained by the study of the Vedas, or by intelligence, or by much hearing of sacred books. It is attained by him alone whom It chooses. To such a one Ataman reveals Its own form. [Katha Upanishad Ch-II -23-P-20]
Mundaka Upanishad :-
This Ataman cannot be attained through study of the Vedas, nor through intelligence, nor through much learning. He who chooses Ataman—by him alone is Ataman attained. It is Ataman that reveals to the seeker Its true nature. [ 3 –page-70 Mundaka Upanishad Upanishads by Nikilanada]

When the Upanishads say:-

It is attained by him alone whom It chooses. To such a one Ataman reveals its own form. Then what is the use of indulging through our intelligence or our accumulated knowledge, when one is not chosen by the self, which is the soul, which is in the form of consciousness.
