One has to think hard to remove the ignorance.






Seeker of truth has to begin to discriminate first with his   words; then with his   ideas; then with his   outlook; then with his life and lastly with his consciousness.

By physical based practices such as yoga and rituals one does not get at ultimate truth. One has to think hard to remove the ignorance.

The birth, life and death are part of the known, and not of the formless knower. The knower is not an object of imagination but the subject which is responsible for the object to exist.

The self knowledge is not for those who lack the intelligence to discriminate between the subjects [formless] and object [form]. Both witness and witnessed are spirit, not witness alone.

Nondual Truth can ever change.  The nature of nondual truth is this: It can never be changed under any circumstances. It may be misrepresented. It must apply to the whole of existence, to all the three states.

 As the deeper analysis points out It is in the waking/dream alone that one has all changes. The witness remains unchanged. The witness, as such remains immortal. It can never die for it never changes.

The waking or dream is witnessed, and goes, but the witness or knower of the three states, can never go. Seeker of the truth has to take this principle as his guiding thread and assimilation becomes easy. The witness can never be subject to the changes of the witnessed; it is unchanged. The mistake usually made is that witness becomes witnessed, or that witnessed is witness.

Absence of contradictions is possible only in absence of duality; where there is no second thing. If there is duality then there is contradiction. The contradiction between witness and witnessed.  The experience" is witnessed. Diversity implies contradiction, and it implies that two things are not the same, hence duality exists there.


The soul and mind are one in essence. Ignorance of the soul the mind becomes reality and becoming aware of the soul the mind becomes illusion. 

 Soul is only imaginary in the realm of duality, and mind is myth in the realm of the soul/self.  All ideas of immortality and eternity are ideas within the duality. The duality is falsehood/ideas on the standpoint of soul, which is the true self.

The duality is apart from soul because it is prior to appearance of duality. The duality is mere an object to the soul/self. The mind is mere mirage created out of the soul /spirit. The people who claim to have a vision of the highest or describe it as supra-mental etc. does not understand the soul as self, because it is free from physicality and it exit prior to any appearance.

Ordinarily knowledge arises from experience of object by a subject; that all knowledge of objects will only lead to more thinking but never give one ultimate truth. Intellectual’s try and get more objective experience because they base themselves on physical proof.  .” the intellectuals can never get at ultimate truth that way because it leads to endless thoughts and because they ignore the soul, which is the true self and is the formless substance and witness of the duality/falsehood. Seekers of truth have to inquire, analyze and reason to find ultimate truth.

Investigations into objects are useful empirically; but only that seekers of truth should not delude themselves that this is the correct path to final reality.


No one as a person   can see the awakening of consciousness, because awakening happens when ignorance is disappears.  Ignorance disappears when the mind becomes one with the soul. Only through nondual wisdom/self-knowledge   one becomes aware of the three states are mere mirage created out of the soul/spirit/self, in the midst of the waking/mirage.   The waking or dream is witnessed by the soul or spirit without the physical eyes.

Claiming himself to be god or agent of god is   not spirituality but hypothesis, because in the realm of truth noting exists other then spirit, which is the true self and ultimate truth.  

Form, Time and Space cesses to exist without the mind.





v  What is the cause of this experience of duality?
v  Is it the Soul the Supreme Reality?
v  Why man and his experience of the world exist only in waking or dream?
v  Why man is unaware of the fact that, the birth, life and death takes place in waking experience.
v  Where shall man at last find rest?
 What makes one bound by the experience of birth, life and death and its opposite?
Form, Time and Space cesses to exist without the mind.  Mind ceases to exit without form, time and space. Form, time and space exits only in waking or dream.  Form, time and space are absent in deep sleep. Mind is present only in waking or dream and mind is absent without the waking or dream.
The individual and his experience of the world are within the waking or dream. The one that witnesses the three states which comes and goes in succession is not the waking entity.
The self is neither the waking entity nor the dream entity but it is the knower of all the three states.
The Self is one. Ever still, the Self is though motionless, he outruns all pursuit. Without the Self, never could the experience of diversity exist.
 The Gnani sees the truth within the three states the ultimate Reality, the self-luminous all pervading, which dwells as the self-conscious power in everything and everywhere in the three states. It is one without a second. Deep within everything and everywhere it dwells in the three states, hidden as their formless substance and witness. It presides over time, space, and all apparent causes.
Like water in snow, butter in cream, water in the river-bed, fire in the tinder, the Self dwells within the three states. Seeker has to Realise it through deeper inquiry, analysis and reasoning.
Like butter in cream is the Self/Self in everything. Knowledge of the Self is gained through meditation. The Self is Supreme Reality. Through true Self-Knowledge is all ignorance destroyed.
Fire, though present in the firestick, is not perceived until one stick is rubbed against another. The Self is like that fire; it is realised through inquiry, analysis and reasoning.
He who is realised by transcending the experience of duality, in deep contemplation, becomes aware it is to be the soul to be the real self. Soul/spirit is the formless substance and witness, all else is mere mirage. And it is the imperishable.
The Gnani know the self to be the soul   as the one reality behind all that seems. For this reason they are devoted to it. Absorbed in it, they attain freedom from the illusory cycle of birth, life, death.
Waking or dream is perishable. The Self, the destroyer of ignorance, is imperishable, immortal. It is the one reality. By constant reflecting on the nature of the Self, by identifying the soul as the self, one ceases to be ignorant.
Seeker has to know the truth, and all fetters will be loosed. Ignorance will vanish. Birth, life, death and rebirth will become part of the mirage. Seeker has to reflect on the soul as self and transcend physical consciousness. Thus he will be one with the universal identity. Seeker of truth must know this.  There is nothing further is there to know.  Seeker has to Inquire, analyze and reason deeply, then he   will realise that mind is mere mirage and formless substance and witness of the mind is real and eternal.

Question with boldness even the existence of a God






Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason, than that of blind-folded fear." --Thomas Jefferson
Religionists say Doubt is a precipice on the way to God. But doubting the existence of god and trying to know the truth is the starting point of the pursuit of truth.
He who is freed from all the doubts and confusions by deeper inquiry, analysis and reasoning reaches the non-dual destination. Seeker has to follow the footprints of the Gnani and advance with care by means of such mental trekking; he will reach the source.
The journey of reason brings joy to those who dare to accept the truth and drop the untruth mentally.

The religious and yogic truths are physical truth.




Whatever, Scientists are able to monitor the pattern of brain activity through modern scientific equipments are based on the physical self.   The physical self and the physical activities are limited to the physical existence.  The physical existence is nothing to do with the ultimate truth.  The ultimate truth is that which is responsible for creation and sustenance of the physical existence.
 The science and its invention are based on believing the physical self and its experience world as reality, whereas, the truth lies beyond physical existence.  Until Scientists discovers, with what the physical body, is able to function itself as a person, and perceives the world, the truth will not be unfolded.  Therefore there is a need to know with what the physical body is able to know itself, because the physical body is not the knower of the physical body. Therefore, there is a need to be aware of the formless knower of the physical body to unfold mystery of the mind.  
Until and unless scientists become aware of the fact that, the self is not physical there experiments will not yield any fruit.  The experiment on the physical body and trying to find the truth is like trying to drain the ocean drop by drop.   
Until scientists realize the fact that, the gross world is merged into the mental experience in the sense that when it is analyzed, it is found to exist inseparably in and as the mind alone. All "spiritual" planes are really mental: those who regard them as different or higher are taking the physical body and the world as reality.
 Since scientists take the birth, life and death as reality, there scientific invention are based on the physical existence, they will not be able to go deeper in this subject, because they cannot cross the threshold of physicality. 
 The modern equipment can investigate objects within the physical existence but it is impossible to investigate the physical existence as whole i.e. man and the world together.  The whole cannot be investigated with laboratory conditions.  Only through deeper thinking through inquiry, analysis and reasoning the whole has to be investigated.
One has to reach the beyond the physical existence, mentally, and discovers, grasps the fact that, the physical existence is mere mirage created out of single stuff; otherwise he will remain the conviction believing the duality is reality.
Deeper inquiry, analysis and reasoning revels the fact that, the self is not physical but it is formless spirit. Therefore, it is erroneous to view and judge the truth on the physical point of view, because the self exists prior to physical existence.  Therefore, it is necessary to view and judge the truth on the standpoint of the base of the spirit, which is the true self.    
Religious Philosophies teach that all is self, but none of them can show that this is so. Theirs is mere dogma, parrotism, repetition of what they read in scripture. They cannot prove it.
The truth has to be analysed scientifically with deeper reasoning and arrive at rational proof and gets the ultimate truth i.e.  Non-dual wisdom. Authoritarianism on the base of past inventions or philosophy mere assumptions and hearsay as truth, but the truth has to be proved beyond all the doubts.
Unless one gives up the ideas of the physicality as reality, the ultimate truth is impossible. Ultimate Truth must be proved here and now. If that cannot be done, it is impossible to cross the threshold of duality.  Without knowing the fact that the self is not physical the Self –Knowledge is impossible to assimilate.
The religious and yogic truths are physical truth. The physical truth is an individual truth, not universal truth. The truth of religion can only be proved by physical strength or by imagination, or power of the weapon or political power, never by reason.
The scientists are yet to find mysteries beyond; they hope to discover it in future.” The mystics say: That mystery unknown to science is known to them and Mysticism is the fulfilment of science. The mysticism is also physical based and it is impossible to acquire non-dual wisdom through mysticism.
The mystics cannot experience the whole on the base of the physical body because the body and the world are within the whole.  So how can they prove that they have seen the whole?
Mystics merely assume that they know it from experience.” If mystics experience joy or bliss, they cannot be egoless. The joy or bliss cannot be experienced without the ego.  Whatever is based on ego is physicality.  And if they retain the ego/physical self they cannot know the whole. Without knowing the whole the ultimate truth is impossible to grasp.
