The ultimate truth or Brahman truth contains within the illusion ,which is present in the form of Mind . The Mind is in the form of Universe. the universe appears as waking or dream. Deeper self-search reveals the fact that, the the Soul or consciousness is the formless substance witness of the the universe. Consciousness is unlimited and basis of everything else , is the reality.
Realization of ultimate truth or Brahman is possible only when one realizes the ‘I’
is not the self but ‘I’ is Mind. Mind is in the form of universe. Universe appears as waking or dream and disappears
as deep sleep. The duality is present only in waking or dream. In deep sleep it is non-duality. that means mind is duality and soul is non duality. in reality the mind and soul are one in essence. that essence is soul or consciousness. thus consciousness alone is real because no second thing exists other than consciousness.
One has
to start with the mind. By investigating
the Mind and realizing “what is what “one gets the Self-Knowledge or Brahma
Gnana or Atma Gnana. In this process one becomes more and more subtle. When become
aware of the existence of the formless witness of the three states; he has
reached the highest. In this way one must try to understand assimilate and realize
the non-dualistic or Advaitic truth.
Truth cannot be got in external
world. The truth is hidden within the three states as their formless substance
and witness. By Becoming a monk and
renouncing the worldly life and running away to mountains to acquire non dual
truth or Brahman is a foolish venture.
Brahman is within. The formless soul, which is in the form of
consciousness, is ultimate truth or Brahman.
The formless soul is the
innermost self and it is not an entity or identity within the waking or dream,
but it is the formless substance, witness and source of the three states. Formless soul is the source of the three
states, from where the mind or universe (waking or dream) erupt and subsides.
All the confusion and doubts arise
because one doesn’t know what he is seeking. He thinks “ego or waking entity” is
self and he is trying to acquire self-knowledge on the base of ‘ego or waking entity’
which is false self within the false experience. He thinks truth is some thing
accomplished from the external experiences. So instead of verifying it through
deeper self-search he tries to regulate his human attributes through yoga and
devotion and religious code of conduct and tries to acquire the Self-Knowledge
or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana .
