Deeper thinking is the only tool to reach non-dual destination. The
thoughts arise only when one is a person. Thoughts cannot rise without the
form. Without the duality the thoughts will not form. The duality will
not form without the ignorance of the soul, which is the true self.
Till man thinks himself as the doer he will remain in ignorance. Till he
is ignorant he will not be able to believe the birth, life and death is
illusion. Till he realizes the three state are unreal he will not be
able to accept the birth, life and death as illusion. Till he thinks illusion
or duality as reality he will not be able to assimilate Self-Knowledge or
Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.
People who stuck to their religious belief and think scriptural
authorities as ultimate truth will not be able to assimilate Self-Knowledge or
Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.
The formless Soul, is the innermost self, is nothing to do with
religion and its code of conducts. Observing and following orthodoxy or
religious code of conducts is accepting the false self as true self.
Accepting so-called spiritual laws is accepting the illusion as
reality. The laws are reality within the duality. The one who thinks of
existence spiritual laws is accepted himself as a person perceiving the world
that is accepting himself as the doer. When the man is not the doer, how the
actions done on the base of false identity can yield fruits.
Seeker has to think, when he himself is a false entity within the
false experience, the religion he follows, the belief he is believes, the truth
he has accepted, the knowledge he has accumulated, whatever he has seen known,
experienced as a person bound to be falsehood.
Freedom is becoming free from experiencing the illusion or duality as reality by realizing the fact that, the self is not the form but self is formless. It is possible to realize this without realizing the fact that, the individual self or ego is reality within the false experience. Thus all the knowledge accumulated by judging on the base of false self, is false knowledge.
Sri, Sankara said: - Without causing the objective universe to vanish and
without knowing the truth of the Self, how is one to achieve Liberation. -63- (VC)”
Universe will not remain as reality when wisdom dawns.
Universe is mere mirage created out of consciousness and there is conscious
awareness of unity in diversity because there is no second thing exist other
than consciousness.
One thinks he is imprisoned within this body; whereas the
body and his experience of the world are within the mind. The consciousness is
hidden within the three states but it is without the three states. The one, which has the awareness of the three
states, is not the body but the soul, which is in the form of consciousness.
Thus consciousness is not limited to waking experience alone because it
pervades all the three states. Till one views and judges the world-view on base
of ego or waking entity, he is in the grip of individuality or
intellectuality. The self is not an
individual because it is universal. And it pervades in everything and
everywhere in all the three states. Thus individualized judgment will not lead
one non-dual destination.
That is why
Sri,Sankara says:- (V C) :-65. As a treasure
hidden underground requires (for its extraction) competent instruction, excavation,
the removal of stones and other such things lying above it and (finally)
grasping, but never comes out by being (merely) called out by name, so the
transparent Truth of the self, which is hidden by Maya and its effects, is to
be attained through the instructions of a knower of Brahman, followed by
reflection, meditation and so forth, but not through perverted arguments.
66. Therefore the wise should, as in the case of disease
and the like, personally strive by all the means in their power to be free from
the bondage of repeated births and deaths.
Thus one has to know what is real by realizing our body
and his experience of the world is mere illusion created out of consciousness,
which the inner most self. The nature of
the self is emptiness. And it is identified by different masters with different
name, such as God or Brahman or Buddha’s nature or Christ consciousness or
Self or Ultimate Truth.
