Self-Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana is necessary for getting rid of ignorance. ignorance is cause of
experiencing the illusion (mind or universe) as reality. By realizing the formless soul or consciousness as innermost self , the wisdom dawns. Formless soul or consciousness is cause of the illusion and it itself is uncaused.
When the soul innermost self rests on its true nature, which is
consciousness after having mentally detached from three states by continually
observing their unreal nature, one enters into non-dual Self-Awareness.
Acceptance by firm judgment and conviction the un-contradictable
truth derived from the deeper self-search as truth, by means of which the
Reality is perceived.
Yearning for freedom
from experiencing the illusion as reality by realizing the self is not the form
but formless and self is not limited to the body but it pervades the whole
universe as its formless substance and witness. Once one becomes aware of the
unreal nature of mind, which is in the form of universe than he becomes aware
of the fact that, the individual experience of the birth, life and death mere
indulgence in discussion but the constant reflecting on the formless substance
and witness of the three states and realizing the formless substance and
witness are one in essence leads one to self-awareness.
The three states are mere illusion created of consciousness.
Thus one becomes free from experiencing the illusion as reality, which is the
cause of burden and bondage.
Verifying through inquiry into the truth of one’s true existence is devotion. The seeker of truth through deeper self-search by realizing the fact that, the self is neither the waking entity nor the dream entity but the self is the formless substance and witness of the three states. The formless substance and witness is consciousness, which is the inner most self. Mentally rectifying the reasoning base from form to formless is necessary in order to drop physical based intellectuality.
