Knowing consciousness as self, mind becomes known.

Knowing consciousness as self, mind becomes known.  Knowing consciousness as self nothing else remains to be known. Knowing consciousness as self one attains to immortality that is the beginningless ultimate reality.

A Gnani is fully aware, and sees the consciousness in all beings and in everything, existing equally and deathless in the living and the dying.

Consciousness is present within all the three states but without the three states. Consciousness is present in all the moving and unmoving, incomprehensible, far and near, impartible, sustaining everything in the waking and dream experiences.

Until one recognizes the source of the mind, one is bound to believe his birth entity as real self and his experience of universe as reality. This body one is so proud of is not the self.  The body and universe exist within the mind. Therefore there is a need to know the source of the mind. The body and the world are within the waking experience.  And the waking experience also will permanently vanish same way as dream, which is called death.  

One has to know that the body and the world are within the mind. And mind is made of consciousness. Thinking the body is   made of five elements one becomes ignorant of the consciousness. By becoming ignorant of consciousness one is conditioned to believe the birth, life and death as reality. By believing the birth, life and death as reality one has strong conviction that the universe in which he is born is real, thus he experiences the illusion as reality. And all his reasoning and judgement is based on physical self, which is the false self within the false experience. 

Mind merges into the source, from where it is originated. Therefore there is a need to mentally trace the source in order to discover the ultimate truth. 

The true self is consciousness and consciousness is  devoid of attributes yet it  existing as if divided in beings, sustaining beings, devouring as well as generating beings within the illusion.  

The consciousness is the light of all lights, beyond all darkness, the goal of knowledge, dwelling and pervading everything and everywhere   in all the three states as their formless substance and witness. Consciousness is the One to be known as ultimate truth.

These three states are temporary - they will pass away. One should not be so proud, looking at his beautiful body and the beauty of the universe, which are within the waking experience. When the time ceases the waking ceases,    like the snake shedding its skin, the consciousness sheds the three states.

 The mind is like perishable.  Like   frail and perishable; the paper is limited. When the drop of water falls upon it, the paper crumbles and dissolves instantaneously same way the reality of the mind which appears as waking or dream and disappears as deep sleep dissolves when their unreal nature is exposed through wisdom.

Even though the self is something other than this material body, the majority of people still identify themselves with it. Why? The main reason people identify the physical body as self, is because of the ignorance of the Real Self, which is consciousness.

Whosoever identifies his-self with this bundle of bones and flesh is ignorant.  Now the question arises: If self is not this body, then what is self? If body with the name is not self then what is one’s true Identity which is without the body and name?

Self is the consciousness and consciousness is ultimate truth.  One has to recognize the consciousness as the true self in order to know the three states are unreal.  

The three states are temporary, while the true self ,which is  consciousness , is the  formless substance and witness of the three states  real  and  Immortal Therefore, this mind is  false and impermanent, and the  Soul or consciousness ,which is  the real Self is True and permanent.

Consciousness is not human, and it is not a demigod. Consciousness is not celibate, or a worshipper. Consciousness is not a Yogi, and it is not a hermit. Consciousness is not a mother or anyone's son because it is formless and one without the second.

Consciousness dwells in all the three states.  No one can find its limits. Consciousness is not a house-holder, and it is not a renouncer. Consciousness is not a president of the country, and it is not a beggar. Consciousness is neither the guru nor disciple.  Consciousness has no body, no drop of blood. Consciousness is neither a Hindu, nor Christen, nor a Muslim.

Consciousness is not called a man of austere self-discipline, or an orthodox. Consciousness does not live, and it is not seen to die. When the ignorance [Birth, life, death and world] vanishes through wisdom consciousness alone will prevail as nondual existence.

Mind is formed of the same essence as the soul, which is in the form of consciousness. Consciousness is stable it like the ink on the news paper which cannot be erased.

The ultimate goal, aim or purpose of human existence is to become linked or re-established in his true identification, the unconditioned consciousness. This is Self-Realization — the realization of man's True Self, the Soul, which is in the form of consciousness. Once one attains this pure awareness within, then he recognizes that "consciousness is the real self, and self is consciousness ". 

Consciousness is Soul, and the mind is in soul or consciousness. This is realized through reflecting constantly on the consciousness which is the formless substance and witness of the three states. .

Seeker has to recognize mentally that "consciousness is self”. He who knows this secret through deeper inquiry, analyses and reasoning become free from experiencing the illusion as reality.

Consciousness is within the mind, and the mind is within the consciousness but it is without the mind. This is realized through reflecting on this subject.
The consciousness is the formless essence of the mind.  Therefore, the mind and soul are one is essence.

Religion and yoga are not the means to truth realization; however, they are good for the mass. For common mass, the religion, God and yoga is more suited. Non dual truth is for the few who can grasp it. Every religion taught this or that, and the teachings contradict each other. Therefore, religious truth is individual truth not universal. Religion is for the mass; however, it is not for the seeker of truth. Seeker of truth is trying to acquire non-dual wisdom. Seeker of truth must respect religionists and yogis because they are ignorant, and they are not in position to understand the higher truth. Thus, seekers of truth should not condemn religion and yoga is indulged in arguing with them. They should not discuss about the truth pursuit with religionists and yogis because they have accepted the birth entity, god and the universe as reality blindly without verifying. The truth pursuit is for one who can think for himself, he has the right to think; whereas the lowest regards questioning as blasphemous and dangerous to religion. Many people cannot grasp non-dual truth, even though they are highly intelligent and well read, and they would only misunderstand it, because they view and judge the world view on the base of ‘ego, which is the false self within the false experience. Furthermore, they try to prove their point with their accumulated scriptural knowledge. Religion for religious scholars who cannot think beyond religion and god, however, they ought not to have the conceit that the religion is the highest. Religion is meant for the mass, while spirituality is meant for the seekers of truth. The self-realized mind is called Gnani. The Gnanis help seekers according to their level of understanding, listening religious or mystic fables from yogis and religionists. They discuss non-dual truth, with seekers of truth.

"Mind” is the mother of all falsies.

"Mind” is the mother of all falsies. Our lives are reality within the false.  Our activities arising from the false self are also false. If the cause is false, then the effect must be automatically wrong as well. The false is based on the following:

·         Identification the self with   the physical body.

·         Thinking oneself as an individual separate from the universe.

·         Thinking the universe existed prior to him and he is born in this universe afterwards.

·         Thinking that sense pleasures are the source of real happiness or eternal peace.

·         Believing that material wealth is the source of real security in life.

All these thoughts keep one in the grip of illusion, which he experiences as reality. The moment he identifies his- self with the consciousness, then their reality will crumble as house of cards.

One has to realize the fact that, the self is not physical but the Self is the formless soul. The soul is in the form of consciousness. Therefore, the self is not this physical body, and physical body is not the self. Therefore, to take this material body as the true Self or to identify with it is the greatest mistake.  Thus, one’s chance of linking with the Infinite Consciousness depends on his true identification. If he misses this point, that is, if he blunders in recognizing his True identity is not physical but consciousness then he will be immersed in   the material existence and experiences it as reality.

 

 

The mind is false.

The mind is false. The reality of the whole universe is false because it is within the mind. The reality of birth, life and death, which happens within the universe, is false because the universe is within the mind.   The reality of form, time and space is false because they are present only when the mind is present.

 The reality of the wealth is real in the falsehood. The reality of ups and down of life is real within the falsehood.

 The mansion, are real the skyscrapers are real; and those who live in them are real but they are reality within the falsehood.  Gold is real, silver is real, diamonds are real; those who wear them are real but they exist as reality within the falsehood.

Thinker is real, thoughts are real, words are real but they are real within the falsehood.  

Suffering is real, happiness is real, bliss is real Samadhi is real but they are reality within the falsehood.

Ocean is real, rivers are real, mountains are real , Sun is real, moon is real, sky is real, stars are real, earth is real whole cosmos is real but they are reality within the falsehood.

Pain is real, pleasure is real but their reality is limited to the falsehood.  The husband is real, the wife is real, the children are real but their existence is reality within the falsehood. The love is real, hate is real, jealous is real but their reality is real within the falsehood.

 The creation is real the creator is real, the cause is real the effect are real but their reality, is reality within the falsehood.
