The Ultimate Understanding





The Ultimate Understanding is to understand there is no second thing exists other then the soul" and the whole diversity is created out of the soul which is in the form of spirit or consciousness.
Whatever is known, seen, believed and experienced is mere mirage created out the soul/self. Thus everything within mirage is the soul/self.
The acceptance to accept the diversity as mirage happens or not is the Will of soul, which is the true self. And it is not the destiny of the individual concerned, because individuality is mere illusion. Thus one who believes in past, present and future and rebirth and reincarnation is not fit to receive the self-knowledge because he accepts the individuality as reality. Without making sure of the fact that the individuality is mere mirage through deeper inquiry, analysis and reasoning it is impossible to come out of individuality. The reason based on individuality produces intellectuality. Intellectuality is not the means to self-knowledge. There is no end to argument based on intellectuality because it is based on the false self/ego.
It is impossible to “kill the ego" alone because the body, world and ego appear together and disappear together. All preaching, practices and writings are base on the false self /ego which leads to lots of doubts and confusion. The ego bases itself intellectuality and intellectuality is I based on individuality. Thus individuality cannot transport one to the nondual destination. Thus, ornamental words may satisfy the ego but it has no value in pursuit of truth. The ego alone cannot be converted back to the stuff from which has been created.
The individual experiences are not realization because the individuality is part of the mirage. The individual experiences are happenings with in the mirage, thus the personal experiences are of no value in pursuit of truth. The one who knows the formless substance and witness of the mirage knows “What is truth? is and “What is untruth”. Thus he has mental yardstick or wisdom of judging what is real and what is unreal.
"Events happen; deeds are done by an individual, but all that has taken place within the mirage. There is no individual doer because the whole experience of diversity is dependent on the soul/spirit." Until one learns view and judges the three states on the base of the soul, he will not realize the he and his experience of the world is mere mirage. Without realizing the mind as a mirage he will not be able to accept the individuality as mirage. Until once judgment is based on the individuality the truth will not be revealed, and it is impossible to move towards universality.

The main confusion arises only when one thinks he is person born in this world and the world existed prior to him; until this conviction is there it is impossible to assimilate nondual truth. Thus it is necessary to realize the fact through deeper inquiry and reasoning the body is not the self and self is not born. Therefore, it is erroneous to treat the body as self and judge and conclude the truth on the physical base/ego.
Many seekers want to know and realize the truth but they are stuck with their inherited idea of karma, rebirth, sin and reincarnation and heaven and hell. All this ideas are based on the physical self. When the self is unborn the karma, rebirth, reincarnation theory itself has no value.
With what one is able to perceives the world as person? Why the person and his experience of the world cease to exist without the waking experience? Where the waking experience disappears when the dream appears? Where the ego, body and the world exist?
Self-realization is simply the realization of the fact that, the true self is apart from the three states. True self is nothing to with the physical entity and the world which present only in waking or dream. The ego is nothing to do with truth. Whatever is based on the ego is falsehood because the ego is present only within the false experience.
The formless substance and witness of the three states is the soul is the true self. On the standpoint of the soul as self, the all the accumulated intellectuality is falsehood. Thus, arguing on the base of intellectuality, which is based on the false self /ego, is not of any value.

The freedom from duality arises, when wisdom arises.






The freedom from duality arises, when wisdom arises. From wisdom will come rapture When the mind is enraptured, one is in tranquil, When one is in tranquil, he will know what is non-dual bliss because nature of the soul/self is blissful, the mind will concentrate easily Being concentrated, one will be able to see things as they really are in so seeing, he will become aware that life is a mirage being so aware, he will become free from burden and bondage .

We are discussing about the ultimate truth within the falsehood






The falsehood is cause by ignorance. We are discussing about the ultimate truth within the falsehood to know how to overcome the falsehood. Until and unless we overcome the physicality, we will not be able assimilate the non-dual truth. Thus being judgmental on the base of physicality will keeps us in the grip of duality. Until we think duality as reality the ultimate truth becomes distant dream.

If one thinks on the base of physicality it will lead him towards physicality/intellectuality. If one thinks on the base of the spirit/self it will lead him towards the spirit. Thus physical based understanding has no scope in the realm of the spirit, which is the true self.
The nondual truth is based on the formless source, from where the whole falsehood rises and subsides. Thus, one has to view and judge on the base of the source, not on the physical self, which is limited to the waking experience alone. The formless source [soul/spirit] is aware of the three states, which comes and goes in succession.

The absolute truth cannot be contained in words and concepts. Thus, merely believing in words and concepts is not the truth.

Nothing has to be accepted as truth without verifying through deeper inquiry, analysis and reasoning, since your present views and judgment is based on the physical self/ego. Thus the reasoning based on the ego will yield only physical truth. Only reasoning based on the formless base/spirit base will reveal the universal truth.

One has to indulge in deeper inquiry, analysis and reasoning on the base of the soul, which is the true self, in order to realize the fact that, the “Self “is not subject to birth, life and death. If self is not the birth entity then whatever is based on the birth entity has no value. Thus, it is erroneous to view and judge on the birth entity. Thus, it is necessary to investigate:-

With what this birth entity [body] with name functions itself as a person and perceives the world?

With what one knows himself and the world?

If body is not the self, then what is self without the body?

The body cannot function itself as a person and perceive the world without the self, the body and the world are insentient without the self/spirit, which is gives sentient to the body and the world. Without the self/spirit the body and the world are non-existent. Thus, the sprit is the subject and the body and the world are mere object. When the subject is formless then it is erroneous to judge on the base of object as subject. What is the benefit of exerting mental effort the wrong way?
Since, we are conditioned to view and judge on the base of object [body] as subject, this conditioning has to be dismantled. Therefore, repeatedly highlighting on the subject, that is everything is an illusion and the soul is the true self, the subconscious gradually becomes receptive and starts dismantling the physical base and the spirit/self/soul alone will prevail as ultimate truth.

It is difficult accept the birth, life and death as illusion






It is difficult accept the birth, life and death as illusion, just because anyone is saying or by reading some books, because the subconscious is not receptive. By repeatedly highlighting on the subject, that is everything is an illusion and the soul is the true self, then the subconscious gradually starts accepting it. Once it accepts it then stops reasoning on the base of ego, and starts reasoning on the base of the spirit/true self/soul.

Once the reasoning base is changed then it has a yardstick to judge what is truth and what is not truth and it will be able to reject the untruth. It is the subconscious/soul, which has to accept and reject what is truth and what is not truth, not the body.

On the physical base the subconscious which decides what is good and what is bad. If the reasoning base of subconscious rectified from form [ego/physical] to formless [spirit/soul] then it will be able to reject all the accumulated knowledge based on the form, and finally nothing prevails other then the true self /spirit, which is ultimate truth.

Once this self-knowledge is gained then one becomes aware in the midst of duality no second thing exists other then the spirit/self, all diversity is created out of spirit. Therefore, the illusion/diversity [matter/mind] and the true self/spirit are one in essence. Therefore there is no diversity in the realm of truth.

Since, everyone bases themselves on their individual experience and trying to find solution for their individual problem through spirituality, and searching the truth for their individual peace. But the individual experiences are happening within the waking/dream. Man is not the doer. Until man thinks himself as a doer, he will not be able to understand and assimilate the self-knowledge. The truth is hidden in the three states, because the self/soul pervades all the three states. Deeper analysis is required to dismantle physical structure. Therefore, constant reflecting on the subject is very much necessary in pursuit of truth.

We are communicating and understanding and trying to assimilate within the illusion to overcome the illusion. The purpose of spiritual path is to realize the fact that, misery and suffering experienced in the life is mere illusion. Since everyone thinks illusion as reality the suffering and pleasure become reality. Only when one becomes aware of our true identity is not physical but the formless spirit, then the illusion becomes an object and he will be able to witness on the base of the subject, which is the spirit/soul.

A well directed inquiry, analysis and reasoning will lead any serious seekers to realize the fact that, the subject is formless [soul/self/spirit] and object is form [body and the world].

The ‘I’, body, ego and the world appear together and disappear together






The ‘I’, body, ego and the world appear together and disappear together. The reason disappears when ‘I’ disappears. Since everyone thinks ‘I’ as self all these doubts and confusion arises. Whenever there is ‘I’ there is division, conflict, which is disorder.
When ‘I’ disappears then there is universal order, which alone is real, which is identified as the true “Self” or Witness of the three states. One cannot say ‘I’ alone is illusion because ‘I’ is not the body but mind, which appears as waking and dream [duality/diversity] and disappears as deep sleep [non-duality/spirit]. Thus one has to learn to view and judge the three states on the standpoint of the formless witness, in order to know “what is truth” to know “what is untruth/illusion”.
When ‘I’ is there all diversities is experienced. Absent of ‘I’ there is no experience of diversity. Thus there is a need to understand the fact that ‘I’/mind is not limited to the physical entity alone, but to the whole experience of diversity. All the confusion will be cleared when one stops his verification on the base false self [‘ego] and learns to reason on the base on the formless self [soul].
