All the words thoughts, beliefs, experiences, understanding, world and whatever seen, known, believed, as a person, is created out of consciousness. When the consciousness limits itself physical entity, then the duality becomes reality. Consciousness pervades in everything and everywhere in all the three states as their formless substance and witness. Thus, the formless substance and the witness are one in essence. When the consciousness is in its own formless nature the duality is mere mirage. Therefore, the mirage has no value, because, its reality is mere illusion. This our worldly life is mere illusion. The one who is unaware of this fact is in ignorance, and he is in the prison of his own ideas and theories.
The words are powerful only in illusion. In the realm of truth they do not exist. When one becomes aware of the fact that, the self is not physical but it is consciousness[soul] then the word, thoughts ,experiences, world, and people have no value, because everything is created out of consciousness. Thus, the beyond is within the mind[illusion] and it is without the mind.
There is no use of getting stuck with the words, because someone believes that, Our culture, our civilization has invented the word `soul' . Every word has been invented by culture and and civilization. Buddha called it emptiness, Sri ,Sri, Sankara called it Brahman, Parmahansa Yogananda called it Christ consciousness, Sri, Arabindo called it super-consciousness. Some does not accept the word soul and uses new words and he is calling same words in a different name. The old word with the new label.
The truth is beyond religion, scriptures and concept of god. The pursuit of truth is a very personal journey. Ultimate truth is nothing to do with the world and its people and its politics culture and tradition, theories, teachings and philosophy , because they are part of the illusion. The illusion will be understood only when one verifies the validity of his own existence and realizes the fact that, the self is not physical but it is formless consciousness[soul]. On the standpoint of formless self ,whatever one has seen ,known ,believed and experienced as person of the world becomes mere illusion. Therefore, Self-knowledge is very much necessary to realize the what is what.
No teachings or teacher is necessary in this mental journey. It is a journey of verification. The teaching and theories are greatest obstacle in pursuit of truth. Until all the doubts and confusion vanishes and the words and thoughts and experience mentally become one with formless substance from which they have arisen, the unity in diversity is impossible.
The unity in diversity within the world/illusion is impossibility. Expecting the world beyond religion and politics is an impossibility. A seeker of truth is not concerned with the individual worldly experience, which is mere illusion for him in pursuit of truth , he is more interested in knowing the truth, to realize, whatever is going on within the world, is mere illusion. The truth sets one free from the illusion, because he realizes the world and people and whatever it contains, everything is consciousness, there is no second thing other then consciousness.
Until one keeps thinking the world is one and consciousness in another, he will be plying the words ,just like a small baby plying with the toys. Therefore, perfect understanding and assimilation is necessary in order to come out from the grip of the words and thought. There is no use of finding fault in anyone’s teaching , they are great in there own way. everyone has to be thankful to those great personalities who have contributed their thesis to this world, which made people think in a different way in different understanding. But when one finds their teachings, theories or thesis are inadequate and useless to quench the thirst of the spiritual seeker then he has to discard them mentally and move a head on his own, to realize the fact that, everything is consciousness, no second thing exists other then the consciousness.
