The waking or dream is state of ignorance. When one
becomes fully convinced of the fact that, the consciousness is the true self,
the ignorance vanishes and reality revels itself. So, it is only in this
realm of the ignorance the universe exists as reality. When this realm of
ignorance itself is known to be false, the body, ego, thoughts, feeling,
perception are also false. The Only Truth is non-duality, which is the
true nature of the consciousness, which is ultimate truth.
Spiritual maturity is required for non-dual wisdom to arise.
Seeker will be able to understand, assimilate as he moves on deeper inquiry,
analysis and reasoning. Through perfect understanding, and assimilation the non-dual wisdom arises.
The yardstick is getting rid of ignorance by knowing and realizing
the consciousness as self. The truth is known only as a proof to the
person concerned. For others it is only doubt. Ignorance, Knowledge,
is known directly for the person concerned. If ignorance has vanished,
then there is non-dual wisdom.
When the seeking mind realizes the ultimate reality, it has
abided into the consciousness, which is its true nature.
By realizing the three states are mere mirage created out
of consciousness; one is free from the illusory, birth, life, death and the
world. In the realm of ultimate reality has no seed of ignorance thus there is no
duality. For when a unreal superimposed
on a real has merged in the real on the
discrimination of the real and the unreal
, it does not appear again to those discriminating people, just as before, from
the impressions of past persisting in the intellect.
Wisdom destroys ignorance from its very root. However,
there will be the 'impressions' of the past perception of duality even after
realization after truth.
This is required for the physical apparatus to continue in
the world within the illusion. Impressions require a locus and thus the physical apparatus is continuing. The body is required to support the world and
the body cannot exist without the world, because the body and the world
appeared together and disappear together as illusion.
When the reason based on consciousness is developed and one
is able to view and judge the worldview on the base of consciousness as self,
then he has the yardstick to discriminate between the real and unreal. The
reason based on consciousness as self once gained will not go away
despite the physical conditioning persisting.
Deliberate suppression indicates identity with the
physical entity. If one suppresses his conditioned
attributes than that suppressed conditioned attributes would definitely come out in one way or the
other.
Even though the truth is realized had, even though the ignorance
has been dispelled, the three states will continue to appear to him and he will
be interacting/reacting thru the ego, which will be driven / supported by the
physical conditioning.
Non-duality is not a theory; it is the Absolute Truth.
One has to view the worldview on the standpoint point of consciousness as self,
then there no conflict.
Deeper inquiry, analysis and reasoning are the one that
leads to the non-dual truth. Consciousness exists always and without
undergoing any change. The three states are none other than the consciousness,
because their formless substance and witness is consciousness. One has to
understand the difference between the states of ignorance and state of
reality.
There is the distinction between states of ignorance and state
of reality. The formless witness, which is consciousness, as
differentiated from the state of ignorance.
For the realisation of the true of the Self does not
tolerate any distinction. The consciousness is second to none. It is the formless substance and witness of ignorance, which
appears as mind, when the ignorance vanishes through wisdom it alone, as non-dual existence. There is no scriptural Authority nor scriptural
teaching, no pupil, nor training. There is neither YOU nor I nor the Others nor
this universe.
The scriptures and teachings belong to the realm of
ignorance. They do not have a distinct existence in the ultimate truth. All
scriptures, including those directed at teaching the means for liberation
belong to the realm of ignorance.
Any formulation being illusory because it is object of
cognition external to consciousness - have
been generated by the very mirage , which gives rise to the illusion of universe of wonderful variety in all animated and
unanimated objects.
The mind is an
illusion. The word 'non-duality ' itself is only relative. The word is
used only to distinguish this from concepts like 'duality '. A realized
one will not see any object [three states] as absolutely real. He might
use one or the other or a combination of several to help others who might seek
his help. All thoughts and words lose their identity in the ultimate
truth that is no thoughts or words by itself.
Non-duality is the ultimate truth and it is not a
theory. Ultimate truth is ever the
Truth, Reality, never to be negated, never negatable.
The formless ‘witness’, is consciousness never, fades,
since it is indestructible. The consciousness is, one without a
second. Consciousness, which is Infinite, is ultimate truth. Consciousness
is the formless substance and witness of the illusion, which is in the form of
mind. Consciousness is the true self. Consciousness never goes out of
existence.
Non-duality is not a theory; it is the ultimate truth that
transcends all theories. It is only to guide the seekers towards the
ultimate Truth, the words are used. Seekers goal should be to realize the
ultimate truth.
