This
non-dualistic orthodox scholars or pundits like Dualist
sages could not distinguish between ‘I’ and ‘formless witness.’ The 'I' was the
witness. Their highest was the Jiva. One is so much attached to the 'I' that he
do not want to think that 'I' does not exist. Again one is unable to detach the
‘I’ from the Real witness.
Scholastic arguments and orthodox attitude is out-dated and not
fit for the modern mind-sets who are capable of thinking using their own
reason. It is no use of arguing with
people who live in self-imposed orthodox prison and who impose their false
inherited baggage to the next generation.
It is high time for the orthodox cult to wake up and indulge in
self-search their inherited belief to realize the non-dualistic truth expounded by the
great sage scientists, Sri, Sankara and Goudpada.
It becomes difficult for the
orthodox cult to accept anything else as truth other than their accepted
belief, which they hold as truth. Although all religious followers are
participants alike in the spiritual endeavor of the world, overzealous followers of each religion are not prepared
to accord equal status to other faiths and assert the superiority of their own.
Thus universal brother hood is total impossibility because it is difficult to
accept anything other than their inherited belief system.
Most of the pundits are egoic and
they try to snub others who question them.
They think they are unquestionable authority. They quote the citation from the scriptures
as proof without verifying the validity.
All punditry is a great obstacle in realizing the Advaitic truth
expounded by the Sri, Sankara and Goudapada.
The foreign disciple come to India
to study scriptures and write great books to feed the seeking crowd but all
this bookish knowledge of ornamental words can satisfy only the emotions and
feelings of an individual. The truth is beyond emotions and feelings because
the formless self is not an individual.
The religious path is emotional
path and it is for those who has the conviction that the practical life within
the practical world as reality. Considering the orthodox or traditional Advaitic path as path of
truth is great mistake. There is no need
to condemn the traditional paths but seekers of truth have to realize the fact
that, they are not the means for Self-Realization. Thus it is necessary to
realize the fact that, traditional path which are based on the scriptural
authority cannot transport the seeker to their non-dual destination as declared
by the Upanishads.
