It is difficult to discuss the
ultimate truth within the scope of some teaching. The barricade has to be removed to grasp the
ultimate truth.
It is necessary to understand “What
truth is” and also “What is untruth” in order realize the ultimate truth. So also understanding the illusion is
necessary. The reason for this is that the ways to realize the ultimate truth
is very intricate or deep.
The duality creates separateness in
the physical existence. The life has
meaning only in physical existence. The whole life depends on action. Action in
duality comprises action and inaction, because inaction is also action. Until and unless one analysis the various
aspects three states the ultimate truth is impossible to grasp. But on in depth analysis it may be found to be
the witness of the three states is formless and apart. Thus, the ultimate truth is very intricate to
grasp and it demands deep analysis and study.
Whoever partakes in pursuit of truth
sincerely acquires non-dual wisdom. For
a person who indulges in religion, god and guru glorification and scriptural
studies and yoga the question of acquiring the non-dual wisdom is impossibility.
The person who does not indulge in
pursuit of truth will not be Self-Realized. Elimination of ignorance through
Self-Knowledge is nobler then any other physical based knowledge. All ignorance gets extinguished in non-dual
wisdom. The mind has physical
limitation. Wisdom acquired on the base
of soul as self is limitless. Through non-dual wisdom all the untruth gets merged in to the ultimate truth which is
the soul or consciousness or spirit.
One has to indulge in deeper
inquiry, analysis and reasoning and try to assimilate what is truth. Seeker has
to put question to those who are expounding the Self-Knowledge with humility
without arguing on the standpoint of accumulated knowledge. The
one who has achieved the ultimate knowledge will be able to guide to the end.
Once one attains Self-knowledge he will not
fall prey to any kind of doubts and confusion (as what is truth and what is
untruth). One will find the three states are being apart from the true
self/soul, and the three states and the soul are one in essence. Therefore even the three states are the
spirit, because, it is created out of spirit.
Self-Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana is meant to liberate
man from doubts and confusion as what is truth, and what is untruth. Attainment
of Self-Knowledge make one realize the three states are mere illusion and
ultimately the illusion merges with the soul or consciousness , which is the true self.
