Meditation is not the means to acquire wisdom. There is neither meditation nor meditator, when one becomes aware of the fact that, soul or consciousness is the true self. The meditation is not possible without the physical entity.
In higher realm of pursuit of truth the question of “WHO” does not arise, because one becomes aware of the fact that, the person and his perceived world appears as whole.
The mind itself arises from the consciousness. The man and the world are within the mind. Until one thinks the mind is within the body he will not be able to go beyond duality. Therefore, there is a need to understand what is mind which appears as whole waking or dream [duality] and disappears as deep sleep (non-duality).
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.
