The "Kingdom of God" (heaven) is within - it is not a place to be reached, rather the truth of one’s true existence, which is beyond form, time and space.



Many  biblical  insights  lead to non dual  Self-awareness. Since people  are stuck with the physicalized meaning of  the insights it is becomes difficult to grasp the real essence of the Bible.     

Christ is not physical.  Christ means  ultimate Truth. To know the truth one has to accept the the soul, the innermost self  as Christ . The soul or Christ   has no religion, thus the religion is for those who think Christ   is outside of their soul.    The insights in the Bible, which is in the form of parables, leads  to Self -awareness or Christ consciousness. 
 
In the Holy Bible first says:-there is GOD and then it says GOD is within and finally it says SELF is GOD. [They misinterpret it as I AM GOD] 

Spirit is my father; I and my father are one. – Soul, which is in the form of formless Spirit [father] ‘I’ [mind or universe] are one. Soul and mind are one in essence.  Therefore there is no second thing exists other than formless Spirit [Father or GOD] – everything is Spirit or God [Consciousness].     

If the Biblical insights are physicalized than it gives dualistic meaning.  Only when we are able to view and judge the worldview on the base of the Spirit, which is the innermost self, we will be able to recognize the Advaitic or non-dualistic essence hidden in the Bible. 

People who are conditioned by religion will not accept anything other than their accepted truth.   The scriptures are meant for those who are stuck the practical life within the practical world as reality.

Jesus said:-  "Know what is in front of your face, and what is hidden from you will be disclosed to you. (THE GOSPEL OF THOMAS- Saying 5)

It means one has to know the world which confronts him confronts to realize his body and world are made of the same essence and that essence is Spirit [father].  

"Jesus said:-"Those who seek should not stop seeking until they find. When they find, they will be disturbed. When they are disturbed, they will marvel, and will reign over all." (Gospel of Thomas 2)


"The Kingdom of God is inside you and all around you, Not in a mansion of wood and stone.  Split a piece of wood and God is there, Lift a stone and you will find God." (Gospel of Thomas)

The "Kingdom of God" (heaven) is within - it is not a place to be reached, rather the truth of one’s true existence, which is beyond form, time and space. 

 When the seeker indulges in deeper self-search than he realizes  the fact that, the experience of birth, life, death and the world are mere illusion created out of spirit [consciousness], which is the innermost self .    

The formless soul or consciousness is the innermost self   and it is the cause of the form, time and space and it itself is uncaused. Thus soul or spirit is the ultimate truth or Brahman or Christ or Buddha’s nature.    

Corinthians 3:17:  Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.

 According to the New Testament, Jesus said to his disciples: ‘To you it has been given to know the secrets of the kingdom of God; but for others they are in parables, so that seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand’ (Luke, 8:10). While speaking to the multitude in a veiled manner, ‘privately to his own disciples he explained everything’ (Mark, 4:34), and advised them not to ‘throw your pearls before swine’ (Matthew, 7:6).

Therefore Self-Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana is necessary to realize the ultimate truth. Self –Knowledge or Brahma Gnana it is only for those who has intense urge to know the ultimate truth or Brahman or Inner Buddha or Christ.   

That is why Jesus said: - not to ‘throw your pearls before swine’ (Matthew, 7:6). (Swine here means is ignorant).  –FB –FP –BCG 

 The restless minds [swine’s] will follow religion, because they are not ready yet to understand and assimilate the Self-Knowledge or Truth  [pearls]. There is no use of throwing pearls at them, because they have become fanatics about their inherited beliefs and ideas.  However, the seeking mind, which is capable of grasping, will recognize the fellow seekers and shares with the fellow seeking minds, and moves ahead towards its destination and becomes one with Christ, which is in the form of pure consciousness.  .


Christ means Truth. To know the truth we have to hold  Christ as our innermost self. The soul has no religion, thus the religion is for those who think Christ  is outside of their soul.    The insights in the Bible, which is in the form of parables, leads to Self-awareness or Christ consciousness or Atmic -Awareness.
