This consciousness is the essence of all the three states. He, who thinks Region beyond form, time and space and abides there; to him alone the mystery of the three states is revealed, and he realizes birth, life, death and universe are the illusory play of the consciousness. Consciousness pervades in everything and everywhere in illusion because the illusion is created out of consciousness, sustained by consciousness and finally dissolves as consciousness.
The soul is in the form of consciousness and it is formless and immortal. The consciousness neither dies, nor can it be destroyed. The mind which is in the form of universe is impermanent it comes and goes. One which is aware of this coming and going of the universe is not the body but consciousness.
It is impossible to know the truth on the base of waking or dream, because the waking or dream, body and the universe appear together and disappear together. One the base of the waking or dream one finds not the truth but illusory reality. Many struggle to know the truth on the base of waking entity or ego but the results are in vain.
They tried a thousand intellectual theories, but their rawness will not accept the truth because it beyond illusion or mind.
One attains not the ultimate truth Through Falsehood and Deceit,. Through the Self-knowledge, one will be able to stills the mind.
Consciousness is the true Self. Consciousness is in this universe but it is not of this universe. It is in this universe, but not of this universe means it is the formless substance and witness of the universe, which is in the form of the mind [I]. The mind [I] appears as waking or dream and disappears as deep sleep. The self who is in the form of consciousness is the formless knower of the mind, which comes and goes. Consciousness is above; it is transcendental to all the miseries, which are inevitable in this illusory universe. Therefore, there is a need to realize the fact that, the mind, which is in the form of universe is mere mirage created out consciousness. Thus, the birth, life, death and world are mere mirage on the stand point of the consciousness, which is the true self. Only on the base of physical self the universe is reality. Thus the Self is within the universe but it is without the universe.
Only a Gnani alone can actually create the awareness of the truth. He can enliven and illuminate others to get out of this ignorance by being transcendental to the illusory birth, life, death and the universe. Gnani tries to guide the seekers get rid of the inherited ignorance and, rise above the waking or dreamcentric concepts, be in this universe, but not of this universe, be in tune with the consciousness, which is his true identity and the ultimate truth.
This material existence is mere mirage. It is like a wax in the candle it will burn away. All attempts for freedom is possible only when one is ready to overcome the ignorance. To overcome the ignorance is possible only when one realizes the birth, life, death and the world are mere illusion created out of consciousness. The consciousness is ultimate truth. And the one who knows this truth knows the knower [consciousness] is free from the known [mind].
Through Self-knowledge, all of one’s waking or dreamcentric successes and all of his credible accomplishments within the duality are ultimately evaporated and consciousness alone will prevail as non-dual existence.
Seeker of truth read not to contradict and confute, nor to believe and take for granted, nor to find talk and discourse, but to weigh and consider and discover the truth by using his on reason. The greatest and noblest pleasure which seeker can have is to discover new truths; and drop old prejudices and accumulated knowledge.
To understand and assimilate one needs spiritual language of silence; one must speak from the standpoint of the consciousness and in the language of the soul – which is humility, intense urge of inner growth, listening and without arguing on some theoretical or some authority or some famous men‘s point of view.
What is illusion? Illusion is where one is bound birth, life, death and universe, and one sees everything on the base of waking or dream. Illusion and attachment are also created out of consciousness; consciousness itself deludes through the illusion. The Waking or dreamcentric does pious acts, but he does not know the consciousness is the ultimate truth and wastes his life away with his inherited beliefs and accumulated knowledge.
The one, who becomes aware of the fact that , the consciousness is ultimate reality, is eternally becomes free from experiencing the illusion as reality.
The waking or dream, body and the universe are part and parcel of the illusion. When the waking or dream is present the body and the universe is present. If waking or dream is not there the body and the universe cease to exist. The waking or dream, body and the universe are within the mind. If mind is there universe is there. Thus mind itself is universe. Limiting the mind to the physical entity is cause of the experiencing the illusion as reality. Clinging to waking or dream is clinging to illusion. Clinging to illusion is clinging to ignorance. Clinging to ignorance is clinging is clinging to the illusory experience of birth life, death and universe as reality. By accepting the experience of birth, life, death and universe as reality are accepting the unreality as reality. Therefore, there is a need to know the one which is aware of mind [the experience of birth, life, death and universe] is not the body which is born lives and dies within the universe, but the soul, which is in the form of consciousness.
One tries to grasp illusion, but it eludes his grasp. “When one abandoned and discards illusion with by accepting the truth that, the consciousness is the true self, then the ignorance disappears and the reality starts revealing itself. Ignorance gives birth to the mind, which is illusion. The mind rises and subsides from the Soul.
Illusion is intoxicating material. It grips everyone and everything within the duality.
Because it pervades and grips everywhere and everything in duality everyone becomes unaware of the reality. No one has known thy bare reality. Only who are discovered the true self and attuned mentally to the soul, which is in the form of consciousness, realize the duality is mere mirage created out of Consciousness.
Illusion has affected the three states, and physical discipline erases not its effect; and men, involved in Strife, are intoxicated with its intoxication are immersed in manipulating the high and low of their physical life. Only through Self-knowledge one will be able to overcome the intoxication of illusion.
"When a person is sleeping soundly, free from dreams, with a still mind, that is the Self, fearless and deathless. That is Brahman, the supreme."
- Chandogya Upanishad
Along with the universe one comes: along with the universe one goes. In universe one is born: in universe one dies. In universe one gives, in universe one takes. In universe one earns, in universe one wastes. In universe is one truthful or lies like a liar. In universe one reflects on Virtue and Sin. In universe do we land in Heaven and Hell. In universe one is happy, in universe one is in sorrow. In universe one commit sin, in universe one washes it off. In universe does one lose the distinctions of caste and kind? In universe one is wise; in universe one is unwise.
The mind appeared as universe. Universe is the illusion; in illusion is one shadowed by Doubts. In illusion is our birth, life, death and the universe is reality.
If one discovers the source of the mind then he realizes the ultimate truth. The nature of mind is consciousness. Until one thinks that the self is physical he is in the bondage of duality. Until he is in the bondage of duality he experiences the illusion as reality.
How is Mind born? In which way is the release? Mind is a chronic malady; but within it also is its remedy
When one discovers and realizes substance of the mind then the mind stills, one destroys the sense of the Second thing. For the Waking or dreamcentric the universe is reality. One should see the consciousness within the mind [I] but without the mind [I].
People are immersed and intoxicated by waking or dreamcentricity. The Waking or dreamcentrics are filled with craving material things, and myriad hopes of all kinds. They are gripped by the chronic disease of waking or dreamcentricity. By discovering and realizing the truth that the self is not physical but formless consciousness, is the only cure to overcome the duality, which is experienced as reality
All the three states are temporal. The waking experience, which contains the man and his universe, cannot exist eternally. So why concentrate so much attention on something temporal?
Inherited Religious bigotry existing in the so-called modern age of Reason, has affected the mental growth and people are not ready to think beyond their physical existence, to discover the truth of their true existence. Only when one is able to think beyond his physical existence then he will be able to discover and realize the fact that, the physical existence is mere mirage created out of consciousness. The body and the world are made out of consciousness. Therefore, the ultimate truth is consciousness and there is nothing beyond the consciousness. The consciousness is the ultimate truth. God is not creator; man created God though his imagination.
