One needs to constant reflect on the subject until he gets a firm conviction of what is what




It is necessary to repeating the same truth again and again till it becomes reality. One needs to constant reflect on the subject until he gets a firm conviction of what is what. Words are needed until one gets firm conviction of ‘what is what’. People need reading and hearing the words to think deeply and reach the ultimate end. 

In deeper self-search:- When one realizes the existence of the formless witness of the three states is apart from the three states then he realizes that, it's not the waking entity which is witnessing the three states but the formless soul, is the witnesses the coming and going of  the three states.

The soul, the innermost self is present in the form of consciousness. Thus the formless soul or consciousness is the knower or the witness of the coming and going of the three states. The soul, which is present in the form of consciousness, is real eternal.

Yoga cannot yield non-dual truth because everything that yogi does or practices and experiences within the ‘known.' Yoga yields relative truth, i.e. true from a particular viewpoint, not ultimate truth.

Man and all the objects of the world within the waking or dream are known and passing away every moment, hence unreal. Hence we ought not to get attached to the passing show. Not only we individuals will change and die, but empires and the mountains and the population will disappear with the waking or dream.

The Seeker has to start with the mind which is present in the form of the matter. He has to analyze the mind and taking away from it all those portions which are ever changing or passing, he becomes aware of the existence of the formless witness of the three states, which is ever-changing.

When a seeker is able to make the distinction between formless witness and the three states then he will be able to realize “what is truth” and “what is untruth”. The formless soul, which is present in the form of consciousness, is present everywhere in everything in all the three states.  

There are two factors to remember: -the knowing capacity and that which is known. The three states are known, and they are all passing away and are therefore unreal. Without the knowing capacity i.e. the knower or the witness in existence there could have been no such thing as knowing these things.  Knowing implies two factors, the knower or the knowing capacity, or that which becomes aware; and the known. Without these two factors one cannot use the word know.

The known (three states) always passes away in succession. When one is able to distinguishing between knower and known, he becomes aware of the fact that, the subject is the formless soul (knower or witness)  and the object is the three states. When waking and dream disappears, the formless soul, the innermost self alone prevails as eternal existence.

The non-dualistic or Advaitic truth is always real. Reality does not exist with forms and names and feeling. That which underlies these is the reality. Reality underlies limitations, being itself limitless. Reality is not bound. Reality underlies unrealities, itself being real. The reality is that which is. Reality is as it is. Reality transcends speech. Reality is beyond the expressions `existence, non-existence.

The reality which is the mere consciousness that remains when ignorance is destroyed along with knowledge of objects, alone is the Self (soul).  In Self-awareness, there is not the least ignorance.

There is no body, no ego and no experience of the world in realm of truth because the body and the world are one in essence. That essence is consciousness.




"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 mind eludes measurement; therefore it cannot be studied or analyzed with scientific instruments as science does with other physical things. But the scientific method can be applied to it apart from scientific measurement.  The scientist is not aware of the fact that, he is searching within the mind, for the mind, with his mind.

Whatever object he is aware of within the waking experience is the mind itself, everything in the waking or dream is nothing but mind. If there is no mind, then there is no experience. If there is no experience then there is no waking or dream.   If there is no waking or dream, then there is nothing but non dual Consciousness, the true self.

No one knows the length and breadth of the mind. One does not know where it begins or ends. One cannot say where it stops. No one has seen their own mind, or others mind. Yet everyone talk of my mind, his mind, as though each mind was tagged and separated.

 The mind is not limited; one cannot measure it or allot it to separate individuals; that it is everywhere because the whole waking or dream is nothing but mind.

The reality which shines fully, without waking or dream , not only when the waking or dream  is known but also when the waking or dream  is not known, is the real form of the soul or true self.

The consciousness is present equally within and without the mind, is the supreme primal reality. Its form is silence and final and un-obstructable state of true knowledge. The seeker has to know that non dual wisdom alone is non-attachment; non-dual wisdom alone is purity; non-dual wisdom is the attainment of ultimate truth or Brahman; non-dual wisdom which is devoid of forgetfulness of  the Self the alone is immortality; non-dual wisdom alone is everything.

The “Self” is in the form of awareness. Awareness is another name for the Self. Since “Self “is awareness there is no need to attain or cultivate it. All that has to do is to give up being aware of other things other than the “Self”. That is of three states. If one gives up being aware of them then pure awareness alone remains and that is the “Self”.

The “Self “is itself aware of dual and non-dual experiences.  There is no duality in reality. Duality is due to the ego and is only relative. Relative knowledge requires a subject and an object, whereas the awareness of the “Self “is absolute and requires no object.

There is no body, no ego and no experience of the world in realm of truth because the body and the world are one in essence. That essence is consciousness. 


  The one who has the firm conviction that, he is an individual separate from the world and world existed prior to him and he is born in it afterwards is egocentric.  And he is unfit to grasp the ultimate truth or Brahman. 

Seeker has to trace the source of the mind or universe to realize the fact that, mind and its formless substance and the source are one in essence.   

The truth is hidden within the mind which is in the form of universe and it requires deeper self-search mental excavation, the removal of the ignorance, which is the cause of experiencing the illusion or duality as reality.

Grasping the transparent Truth of the self, which is hidden by illusion or waking or universe, is to be attained through soul-centric reasoning, followed by reflection, meditation and so forth, but not through perverted egocentric arguments.
