Arguing on the base of the ego [form] is waste of time and makes one more egocentric.



Non-dual wisdom is bitter medicine for those imprisoned by orthodox cults.  The ultimate state of consciousness, which the modern non-dualists describe, is that of the traditional sage or fully enlightened being, but they do not show the seekers the process leading to the realization of this state.  They describe marvellously the goal, but do not indicate the steps to be taken: thus their preaching is not a roadmap to the ultimate end. 

 Many Seekers of truth think the ways to Truth are many. What is most important is, one should not to restrict himself to one path that he imagines that all the others are false.  Thus if religionists say that one should follow one particular traditional path, and  modern thinkers  demands  to abandon all paths, but seeker of truth should to take an independent way , after verifying  validity of all claims and   by sound reasoning and accept only un-contradictable truth until he reaches his pathless land.   

Many people think they will lose all their sense of identity to their functioning, if they do not get cling to their ego. The ego creates the feelings of separation, pain, and alienation as well.  But all these feelings are within the universe and the formless witness is without the universe.  

When one becomes aware of the fact that, self is consciousness through wisdom, then he also becomes aware of the fact that, the body, ego, senses and the universe which are present in the waking experience or dream are also consciousness.  And he becomes fully aware of the fact that, the formless true self (soul or consciousness), which is the witness of the three states, is apart, real and eternal.   Thus he becomes aware of the ultimate truth (pure consciousness) in the midst of the duality (waking). Realizing the truth in the midst of duality (waking/illusion) is wisdom.

 One does not lose the physical experience (universe or mind) but he will be fully aware of the fact that, the three states are mere mirage created out of consciousness. By realizing the fact that, the self is not physical but self is consciousness, the mind becomes still to know that consciousness alone is real, and the mind (universe)in which the whole humanity exits is mere mirage created out of consciousness.

There is a need to drop all the pre-conceived ideas and accumulated dross and try to verify a fresh to understand and assimilate the non-dual truth. One should not make any teaching as a yardstick but one should verify all the facts by sound reasoning and overcome all the obstacles by realizing what is truth and what is untruth.

If one becomes aware consciousness is the true self, then all his judgment has to be based on consciousness (formless) as self, not on the ego or physical self (form). Then only it is possible to understand and assimilate the non-dual truth.  Since, everyone is judging the truth on the physical self (form or ego) which leads to doubts and confusion and one will land up in pursuit of argument.

People think that, the birth entity (ego) as true self and the world as reality.  And their judgement is based on the birth entity (ego). Therefore, they think human and world are real. Thus they think the self is born, lives and dies, whereas the self is never born and it can never die because it is formless.

Thus arguing on the base of the ego (form) is waste of time and makes one more egocentric.      Thus there is a need to learn to view and judge the worldview on the base of consciousness as self, to overcome all the obstacles to reach the ultimate truth or pathless land, to realize the fact that, human and world are mere mirage created out of consciousness. 

Lectures consisting of a shower of ornamental words, the skill in expounding the Scriptures or intellectual theories, and likewise erudition - these merely bring on a little personal enjoyment to the scholar, but are no good for freedom.



The mind which contains the whole universe with it perceiver is apart from the consciousness, which is ever formless.  Consciousness is the source in which the mind rises and sets. The waking, dream, and deep sleep states take place within the consciousness. The experience of birth and death likewise take place within the consciousness. The birth, life death and the world are within the mind but the consciousness is without the mind. When consciousness prevails without the mind it is nondual reality.

Consciousness can never be destroyed, but it resolves back to its formless nondual true nature. Nothing is beyond or higher than the consciousness. – Mind and the soul [consciousness] are essentially one, as are the ocean and the waves. As long as illusion exists the separation exists. As long as separation exists duality will prevail as reality. So long the ignorance prevail, the birth, life, death and the world will remain as reality. But when one awaken into reality, all the reality of illusion cease forever.

Neither by Yoga, nor by scriptural studies, nor by action, nor by learning, but by the realisation of one's identity with consciousness is freedom possible, and by no other means.

Lectures consisting of a shower of ornamental words, the skill in expounding the Scriptures or intellectual theories, and likewise erudition - these merely bring on a little personal enjoyment to the scholar, but are no good for freedom.

The study of the Scriptures is useless so long as the highest Truth is unknown, and it is equally useless when the highest Truth has already been known.

The Scriptures consisting of many words are a dense forest which merely causes the mind to ramble. Hence one should earnestly set about knowing the true nature of the Self.

All the god oriented theories are based on the false physical self. Holding the god as the base of existence becomes a greatest obstacle in pursuit of truth.



Consciousness is not only is within the mind but it is without the mind. Consciousness is the power of all powers.

Everything is consciousness. In the final sense there is second thing at all. Yet, at the moment on e find him-self in the seemingly manifold condition that is necessary for his evolution in understanding and ultimate freedom.

By mistaking the self to be physical, on e is mistaking the nature of consciousness as well. Consciousness is “the power of all powers, but thinking the physical body to be the self, one has created unconsciously the physical prison out of consciousness. When one becomes aware of the fact that, the whole physical prison created out of consciousness, the ignorance vanishes the consciousness alone prevails as eternal existence.  

When the self is not the form but it is formless, then how can one accept himself   to be the servants or slaves of any god men or conceptual God?  If one accepts the idea of god or god men to be the god, then he is accepting the self to be physical. By accepting the self as physical he is accepting the illusion as reality.  By accepting the illusion as reality one is accepting the illusory birth, life, death and the world as reality.  

All the god oriented theories are based on the false physical self (ego or waking entity).  Holding the god as the base of existence becomes a greatest obstacle in pursuit of truth.  

The knower of the source is the knower of the truth.



He who has grasped the fact that, the consciousness is the true self will become aware of the fact that, consciousness exists prior to the appearance of the three states.  The consciousness is the source of the three states.

The knower of the source is the knower of the truth.  Without knowing the source,  one is in ignorance of the source, which is the consciousness.  The source itself  is the true self.

The consciousness rises as “mind” and subsides back as “consciousness”.    When one turn within, to the core of his being, there he will not find the ego, but he will find its source, the consciousness, which is second to none the ultimate reality.  Consciousness alone is all else is mere mirage created out of consciousness.

This is the true understanding of the self–that in which the two are seen to be one, although their distinction is eternal. The word “born” is misleading, for the Self is never born. There does come a time when it becomes manifest in the illusion, but it existed prior to the   illusion. There was never a time when consciousness did not exist, even   the illusion of form, time and space it existed as its formless substance and witness.   

To acquire Self-Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana is possible by getting free from the bondage of ignorance.





To acquire   Self-Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana  is possible by getting free from the bondage of ignorance.  Seeker has got no one but himself to remove his bondage.

The illness  can be cured  by doctors, but no one but one’s own self can get rid of the ignorance caused by illusion.

The seeker who is on right direction, and strives on his own will be able to realize the non-dual truth. The non dual truth   is not possible to realize through yoga and priest-craft.

The true nature of things is to be known personally, through the mental eye of clear illumination, and not through the physical eyes. One has to get rid of the bondage caused by the fetters of Ignorance on his own by clear and perfect understanding.

Through consciousness, man becomes aware of the waking, dream or deep sleep experiences. Consciousness is the all-pervading Self in all the three states. Knowing consciousness as self, the ignorance ceases to exist.

 All the three states are directly rooted in the Self, which is consciousness.  The ego is individual self and the soul is the universal self. Ego is the false self within the false experience.  When through wisdom all   this is truly known, the ignorance ceases, for the Gnani identifies with the consciousness, which is the true Self.

Consciousness transcends all illusion. Consciousness is the immortal Self. Only in physical existence one thinks that he is poor, wealthy, powerful individual separate from the world. And he also thinks that the world existed prior to him and he is born in it later on.  Until this conviction is there he will not become aware of the fact that, his body and the world are also made of consciousness. Until, he thinks he is born in this world, he is in the shackles of physicality.   Until he is in the shackle of physicality he will never accept the truth that the universe is mere illusion.  Without realizing the fact that the universe is unreal, it is impossible to understand and assimilate nondual truth. 

The individual experiences and circumstance totally beyond individuals control, which appear and disappear spontaneously.  It is wrong to think individual is the masters of past, present and future because the time exist only in illusion. All our fear comes from unawareness the fact that self is formless. By turning inward and discovering the fact that the self is beyond form, time and space.  By realizing this fact one will pass beyond illusion. Yoga is inseparably bound up with the necessity for physical based practices of regulating the vital force or breath; therefore they are not means to self realization. All theoretical understands are egocentric, therefore, they are more than dead words on a dead page.
