On the dualistic perspective, people who see the world in which they exist as a reality. They see their body as the body, their ego as the ego and the world in which they exist as the world whereas a Gnani sees everything on the nondualistic perspective. A Gnani sees his body as the consciousness, his ego as consciousness, the world in which he exist as the consciousness. For a Gnani, whatever seen, known, believed and experienced is nothing but consciousness. There is unity in diversity in Gnani understanding whereas the ignorant people see only diversity and separation.
Thus it is necessary to learn to view and judge the worldview on the nondualistic perspective in order to realize the form, time and space are one in essence. There is nothing to realize other than realizing the consciousness is everything. The consciousness is second to none.
When everything is nothing but the consciousness then what remains which is not the consciousness.
The ignorance is the cause of the world in which you exist. The world in which you exist ceases without the ignorance. The world in which you exist is the dualistic illusion. The world in which you exist appears as waking experience (duality and disappears as deep sleep (nonduality).
The ‘Self’ is not you but the ‘‘Self’’ is the Soul, which witnesses the coming and going, of the three states.
You are born within the dualistic illusion, you are living within the dualistic illusion and you are going to die within the dualistic illusion.
Ignorance is the cause of experiencing illusion as a reality. Take for illustration, the dream was experienced as a reality and the dream becomes unreal when the waking takes place. Similarly, the waking experience becomes unreal when you realize the fact that the ‘‘Self’’ is not you but the ‘‘Self’’ is the Soul, which is present in the form of the consciousness.
In reality, there is no seeker, no seeking no goal, only a union that transcends the form, time, and space. In reality, the subject (Soul) and object (mind) are one, in essence.
The ‘Self is not you because you are born within the dualistic illusion, you are living within the dualistic illusion and you are going to die within the dualistic illusion.
The ‘Self’ is birthless and deathless because it is formless, timeless and spaceless existence. Thus, the one, which is born, lives and dies within the world is not the’ Self’, because the world in which you exist the dualistic illusion created out of the ‘Self’, which is the Soul. The Soul is present in the form of the consciousness. The Soul is the cause of this world and it itself is uncaused.
The Self is realized only when you realize the ‘Self’ is not you, but the ‘Self’ is the Soul, which is present in the form of the consciousness. The world in which you exist exists because of the consciousness. On the standpoint of the Soul, the innermost ‘Self’, the world in which you exist is mere an illusion created out of itself. Thus, the world in which you exist is nothing but the consciousness. Thus, the Soul, which is present in the form of the consciousness alone, is real and eternal all else is mere a dualistic illusion created out of the consciousness
