Mind has beginning and has an end but consciousness has no beginning and no end.

Non-causality can be proved by reasoning based on the true self. How can that which already exists be born again? Neither can the non-existent be born. To produce a particular effect, a cause must have a particular energy. Else everything could be produced out of everything. But this energy can belong neither to that which is existent nor to that which is non-existent nor to that which is both nor to that which is neither. If we're unable to find the effect in the beginning or end, it cannot exist in the middle either. Since we're unable to prove antecedence and consequence, how can we establish a cause?

Causality is impossible as neither the existent nor the non-existent can be produced either by the existent or the non-existent. Mind has beginning and has an end but consciousness has no beginning and no end.

It is only who are think self is physical espousing theories on creation, who quarrel amongst themselves. But who are soulcentrics have no doubts and confusions, because they are fully aware of the fact that, consciousness is the cause of the mirage and it itself is uncaused. 

Universe is the very nature of consciousness.

The various theories of creation - that it is the expansion of God or it is the will of God or it is for God's enjoyment or it is an illusion like a dream or it proceeds from time are mere intellectual speculation based on the false self.  Thus there is need to realize the true self is not the form but formless in order to realize there is neither the creator nor creation from ultimate point of view.

Universe[Mind] is the very nature of consciousness. It is its inherent nature which simply emanates and flows from it. But even this is only an appearance for in truth there's no creation at all. For Gnani the universe is an illusion. Viewed from the absolute there's neither birth nor life nor death, neither appearance nor disappearance, neither production nor destruction, neither bondage nor liberation. There's none who neither works for freedom nor is there any who is liberated - this is the highest truth.  Thus viewing from ultimate standpoint is necessary to realize all the knowledge based on ego is not wisdom.  Therefore one has to learn to view his body and universe from the ultimate standpoint of view,  to realize there is no second thing exists other than the consciousness, which is the true self.  

Chandogya Upanishads:- This universe comes forth from Brahman and will return to Brahman. Verily, all is Brahman. A person is what his deep desire is. It is our deepest desire in this life that shapes the life to come. So let us direct our deepest desires to realize the Self. 

The Gnani know that there's neither unity nor plurality - the world is neither one nor many. Just as a piece of rope is mistaken for a snake; the consciousness is mistaken as this diverse universe. Duality is an appearance and the non-dual consciousness is the real truth.

The universe is not different from the self and the self is not different from consciousness and consciousness is ultimate truth. That the non-dual consciousness appears as the diverse universe is only an illusion. If it really became diverse then the immortal would become mortal. The religionists who seek to prove the origination of the unborn, by that very enterprise try to make the immortal, mortal. Ultimate nature can never change - the immortal can never become mortal and vice versa. Consciousness appears to be many"; "those who are attached to creation or production or origination are speculating and imagining on the base if false self or ego   "the unborn is never reborn, for who can produce consciousness?". The consciousness is the cause of everything and it itself is uncaused. 

The one who is free of uncertainty within, and who outwardly wanders as a house holder, can only be known by someone of his the same level of understanding.

Consciousness is the true Self. Consciousness is   hidden in everyone and in everything and everywhere in all the three states. Soul-centric reasoning lead one deeper into consciousness, passing from the world to thoughts, and beyond thoughts to the wisdom of the Self.

A Gnani is fully   aware of the fact that, his body and his experience of the universe are made out consciousness and he is free from the ignorance and also   free from experiencing the duality as reality.

When ignorance has been eliminated, consciousness (self) is free from bondage and burden of the waking experience. There is no more seeking of   wealth, friends, sensual pleasure, scriptural studies or any sort of knowledge.

Realising the consciousness is the true self and consciousness is the formless substance and Witness of the three states, the self or consciousness is free from the illusory burden and bondage.  

The one who is free of uncertainty within, and who outwardly wanders as a house holder, can only be known by someone of his the same level of understanding.

No one can escape the waking experience which is the very basis of the physical existence. What was the waking experience before it appeared? Was their existence before the appearance of the waking experience?  When the waking perishes, does the soul or consciousness survive alone?  Is there a self or soul?  The seeker has to find answers for all these doubts in order to realize ‘what is truth’ and ‘what is untruth’. 

As one goes deeper in self-search one becomes aware of the fact that, the self is neither the waking entity not self is the dream entity but the self is formless substance and witness of the three states. And the formless substance and witness of the three states are one in essence. And that essence is consciousness.  If the formless substance and witness are one in essence, than there is second thing can exist, other than consciousness?  Thus consciousness alone is real and all else is mere illusion created out of consciousness, which is the innermost self. 

The universe does not simply possess consciousness, it is consciousness, and this consciousness is ultimate truth.

While ultimate truth lies behind the sum total of the objective universe, some human minds boggle at any attempt to explain it with only the tools provided by reason. Ultimate truth is beyond the senses, beyond the mind, beyond intelligence, beyond imagination. Indeed, the highest idea is that ultimate truth transcends and includes time, causation and space, and thus can never be known in the same material sense as one traditionally 'understands' a given concept or object.

The universe does not simply possess consciousness, it is consciousness, and this consciousness is ultimate truth. The knowledge of ultimate truth springs from inquiry into the nature of the mind or universe. The knowledge of ultimate truth cannot be obtained in any other way.

Consciousness is without attributes and strictly impersonal. It is pure knowing itself. One has to hold consciousness to be the Ultimate Truth, so in comparison to consciousness, every other thing, including the universe, its distinctness, and the individuality of the living creatures are mere mirage created out of it. Consciousness is the effulgent cause of everything that exists and can possibly exist. Since it is beyond human comprehension, it is without any attributes, for assigning attributes to it would be distorting the true nature of consciousness.

 Since all the attributes are product of consciousness the people who believe in the existence of attributed consciousness holds no water from the ultimate standpoint because all the attributes are mere mirage created out of consciousness, thus the sometime and space,  and birth, life and death and  idea of creator and creation  are part of the mirage. The consciousness which is free from form, time and space  is ultimate  Truth.

When one tries to know the attributeless consciousness mentally from his attributed base, then he realizes all the attributes are created out of attributeless material and that material is consciousness, which real and eternal.

Self is the reflection of the consciousness in the realm of the mirage. Just like reflection of moon, in a pool of water. The universe also appears as such due to ignorance. Consciousness is eternal and unchangeable. It is due to ignorance the universe, which is mere mirage, is experienced as reality. Once the curtain of ignorance is lifted, and then there is no second thing exists other than consciousness. Thus, due to Self- Knowledge, an individual loses the sense of duality and achieves liberation from experiencing the duality as reality.
