Karma theory is based on the birth entity whereas the self is birthless.

Karma theory is religious fable. Karma theory is based on the birth entity whereas the self is birthless.  On the standpoint of the birthless self, the experience of birth, life, death and the world are mere illusion.  Thus holding birth entity as real self and the world as reality is erroneous.

The practical life within the practical world, which is present as waking experience, is mere illusion. If waking experience is mere illusion than the individual experience of birth, life, death and world are mere illusion.   If the experience birth, life death and the world are mere illusion, it means the form; time and space are mere illusion.  If form, time and space are mere illusion, it means the past, present and future is mere illusion. Thus it is necessary for the seeker to realize the fact that,   form, time and space are one in essence, in order to realize the three states are one in essence. That essence is consciousness. Thus all the diversity is created out of   formless consciousness. Thus no second thing exist other than consciousness, the innermost self. Seeker of truth has to constantly reflect on the subject in order to get firm conviction of the truth.  Seeker has to reflect on the same truth again and again until it becomes reality. One needs to constant reflect on the subject until he gets firm conviction of what is what.

The karma theory is introduced to control the mass mindset to do good to the society by the ancient sages.  The fear of karma  very often anchor our ego  to irrelevant or even wrong things, the karmas draw our ego  only into good and noble thoughts.  This is number one.  Number two is they draw us away from all bad thoughts. But karma is based on the physical base. The action and conduct is part of the illusion. Thus karma is not a means to acquire the self-knowledge. And karma is the biggest obstacle in pursuit of truth. The one who believes in theory of karma will never be able to realize the non-dual truth, because his focus of attention is centered on the false self. Thus he cannot cross the threshold of duality. It takes long time for the seekers who have accepted the karma theory to overcome the duality, because they have to drop the accumulated dross mentally.

In orthodox Advaita they accept karma theory.  If they accept the karma theory, one will not be able to reach the nondual destination. If one accepts karma theory then it is impossible to treat the world as illusion. All the pundits’ explanation of karma theory carries no weight on realm of truth.

The birth, life and death are part of the waking experience, which is mere illusion on the standpoint of the true self.  It is no use of saying that, we are not born, we do not die because, because we all were born and we all are going to die. However, the birth, life and death are part of the illusion, which comes and goes as waking experience.  The formless witness of the three states is real, which is our identity has no birth and death. That is why self-knowledge  or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana is nothing to do with the religious based Advaita, which is based on Vedas. 

  A Gnani will never say we are not born; we are not going to die.   Only to the mediocre who nod their head, he will say this to inspire them to think of the formless true identity, which is birth less, deathless.   Thus, it is wrong to say we are not born and we do not die by limiting the self to the physical entity.  If one limits the self to the physical entity alone, one gets only half-truth.  The soul or consciousness   pervades all the three states, as its formless substance and witness.  The formless substance and witness, which is our true self (true identity). Without knowing the true self-mere saying, we are not born, we do not die is not the knowledge, which has come from depth, it is mere bookish knowledge.

 When Sage Sri, Sankara says: world is unreal. He never said body is unreal. He would have said only birth and death is   unreal but he did not say that, he said the world is unreal.   He meant   the world including the body, because the body and world appear together and disappear together (waking/dream).  Then we have to think, what remain without the body and the world as reality. How can the birth, life, death, rebirth, and reincarnation, which take place in unreal world (waking or dream), can be true.   The one, which is aware of the birth, life death, rebirth and reincarnation (illusion or unreal), is formless reality, which is the true self/true identity.  The formless self is your true identity, which is birthless and deathless but it is the witness of the birth, life and death and rebirth (illusion or unreal).

 On the standpoint the formless soul the innermost self, the experience of birth, life, death, rebirth and reincarnation theory is part of the illusion/unreal.  The body cannot reincarnate, the body and the world are created out of the same formless stuff. Until one views and judges on the base of flesh, bone and blood (five elements), he will not be able to grasp the nondual truth.  Thus, one must know on what standpoint we are not born and we do not die thoroughly, just by hearsay views, it will not lead anyone to the nondual destination. 

One has to grow from the inside out. None can teach him, none can make him spiritual. There is no other guru but his  own soul.”

Self-knowledge or Atma Gnana or Brahma Gnana cannot be attained by one who is without strength or earnestness or without the receptiveness and courage to accept the truth and reject the untruth. If a serious seeker strives sincerely by means of inquiry, analysis and soulcentric reasoning, he will be able to realize it.

It is only seekers sincerity and earnestness in his spiritual pursuit, the knowledge started revealing on its own.  Anyone who has humility and patience and is sincere and ready to drop their accumulated dross and receptive to accept the truth will enter nondual Self-Awareness when his conviction becomes firm. 

Creator and creation theory is based on holding the duality as reality

Creator and creation theory  is based on holding  the duality as reality . In non-duality there is neither creation nor creator because the duality is mere illusion.  Cause and effect theory holds good only when one views and judges the worldview on the base of false self(ego or waking entity) as real self and false experience(waking) as reality. .

When the waking entity  learns to view the  three states on the base of the soul, which is  true self then he  becomes aware of the true fact t that, here is nothing exist other than soul, which is in the  form of consciousness. Consciousness pervades in everything and everywhere in all the three states. The nature of the three states is consciousness.In absence the three states the consciousness alone exists as formless non-dual existence.  

The people who believe God as creator will not be able to cross beyond the barricade of experience of duality/physicality. They get stagnant in believing duality or physical existence(universe)  as reality.

To overcome this experience of illusory physical existence (mind) one has to investigate what is self first, whether 'ego ' is self or something else is self. Without knowing what is true self non duality is a distant dream.

One who is stuck with his  inborn inherited conditioning and accumulated knowledge from what he has read and assimilated and accepted them as truth, is not receptive to receive self- knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.

Seeker has to verify on every angle through inquiry, analysis and reasoning on his own and accept only un-contradicted truth.The spiritual truth cannot be contradicted. Religious truth is individual not universal.

Idea of God as a creator holds good theoretically .This idea of god is introduced by the organized religion and rulers in the past, to keep the mass in their control by conditioning the mass mindset, to be, to believe, to behave and live in the society by strictly following its ethics and code of conduct.  But this idea of god becomes a biggest obstacle in pursuit of truth,because one is unable to cross the threshold of duality, which he experiences it as reality.

When duality accepted as reality then the birth, life, death and the world will prevail as reality. Thus, the false self(ego)  prevails as true self , and thinks whatever it has seen, known ,believed and experienced as a person as reality. 

When the mind becomes aware of its formless substance, and able to view and judge on the base of its formless substance, then there is neither the world, nor the perceiver of the world, nor the belief of god, exits as reality.

The whole illusion, in which man perceives the world,   is created and sustained by consciousness. Therefore, the diversity within the consciousness is mere illusion. There is no second thing other than the consciousness, hence it is non dual. On the standpoint of the consciousness (soul) nothing exists, nothing ever existed; nothing will ever exit other then consciousness. 

People are conditioned to view and judge the worldview on the stand point of the false self or ego.

The mind has its origin in the formless soul or consciousness. The three states are   dependent on consciousness (soul) for their existence. During the deep sleep the waking and dream merges with consciousness. There is no second thing other than consciousness in its true nature. Hence it is non-dual.

Consciousness (soul) is of the nature of knowing.  Man, world and his belief of god depend on mind for their existence and mind depends on consciousness for its existence.   If the reality of world bothers one and he is not ready to accept its illusory nature then he has to first inquire into the nature of the mind by inquiring “What is ‘I’?, then realize the fact that ‘I’ is not limited to physical entity alone but to the whole mind ,which appears and disappears as waking or dream.

By trying to know the truth as person, kicking the universe behind, it is impossible to acquire self-knowledge.  Till one knows the consciousness (soul) one has only the mind (man + universe). If one is unable to consider the world as illusion then it is realism.  By considering the world as reality one is accepting the matter as reality. By accepting the matter as reality one will remain believing the birth, life and death as reality.

One has to realize the fact that, the matter (mind or universe) is dependent on consciousness for its existence. It cannot exist without the consciousness. The consciousness is the substance and witness of the matter (mind or universe). Thus, substance and witness is one in essence, which is consciousness. 

Holding the body and universe as reality, is holding the ignorance as reality. Holding the ignorance as reality is holding the illusion as reality. Holding the illusion as reality is holding the unreality as reality. Thus non-dual truth is impossible for those who believe in realism, because they have accepted untruth as ultimate truth.

The one which has the capacity to know is not the body but consciousness. The consciousness knows the body and the world together.  Man and his universe co- exist within the mind.  The Mind exists within the consciousness.   Thus mind is body and the world together.   The knower of the mind, which appears as waking or dream and disappears as deep sleep is consciousness or soul. 

One mistake body to be matter everything else as mind. But analysis shows the mind itself is the matter.  Without the mind there is no matter. Whatever exists without the matter is real and ultimate and it is consciousness.  When everything is consciousness then there is no second thing other than consciousness.  Therefore on the standpoint of consciousness as self, everything is consciousness and diversity is mere mirage created out of consciousness. Hence man and world are mere illusion on the standpoint of the consciousness, which ultimate truth. 

People are conditioned to view and judge the worldview on the stand point of the false self or ego. They can only understand what they are thought by their by parental grooming, religion societal ethics, accumulated knowledge and circumstances of life. They cannot think beyond physicality.

The seeker of truth is one who is ready verify and has courage to accept and reject the truth when he finds out what is truth and what is untruth. The meek will stick to their inherited conditioning remain experiencing duality as reality.

Pursuit of truth is not suited for religionists, realists and yogis who believe in conceptual god. Because religious idea of god, world, heaven, hell, sin karma, ceases to exist as real when one becomes aware of the non-dual truth.

Seekers who are ready to accept only truth have to indulge in the pursuit of truth. And people who are satisfied with their faith and belief and accepted truth must continue without disturbing their present outfit.

Mind has emanated from and in consciousness

The duality is present in the form of mind. Mind is present in the form of universe. The universe appears as waking or dream and diapers as deep sleep. The one which is aware of the coming and going of the three states is neither the waking entity nor the dream entity but the formless soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.  When the soul becomes aware of its formless non-dual true nature in the midst of duality it is called self –awareness. It is foolish to limit the consciousness only to duality because the consciousness pervades all the three states 

Mind becomes one with consciousness in deep sleep. Mind has emanated from and in consciousness.  The individual experiences are reality within the waking or dream. Individuality ceases to exist without the waking or dream.  The one which witnesses the dream is not waking entity and one which witnesses the waking is not dream entity. The one which witness the deep sleep experience is   neither dream entity not the waking entity. Then what is it that is aware of these three states, which come and go in succession.

It is the consciousness (soul) which is aware of all the three states, which comes and goes in succession. Thus it is the witness of the three states. It is also is the substance of the three states because it pervades in everything and everywhere in all the three states. Thus consciousness is the common essence in dual and nondual experiences.  The one, who discovers, understands and assimilates and realizes the essence as ultimate truth becomes free from experiencing the duality as reality.   The consciousness exists with or without the duality. The birth, life, death and the world are within the mind or duality. And the consciousness is the formless substance witness of birth, life, death and the world (mind).  

Consciousness (soul) is apart from the birth, life, death and the world, because it is not an object within the duality, but the duality (waking or dream) is an object to it.  When one becomes aware of the fact that, the formless substance and witness are one in essence, then there is unity in diversity.  

There is no need of buying reading material or hearing the sermons and running to one place to another or one guru to another or surrendering to any guru or glorifying any guru in order to acquire self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.

If one is seeking truth but practicing yoga or Kundalini or any other practice for long years and finding them inadequate and useless quenching his inner thirst has to drop them by realizing they are only useful in preparatory stages to make him more receptive to grasp the ultimate truth and they cannot transport him to the ultimate end of understanding.  

Seeker has to follow up his deeper self-search and get rid of the inborn samskara or conditioning, which is present as ‘I’ or ‘I AM’. There is no need of buying reading material or hearing the sermons and running to one place to another or one guru to another or surrendering to any guru or glorifying any guru in order to acquire self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana. 

"Read and be wise" but only if the light of one’s own consciousness awakens the deep-seated understanding is an inherent quality of the soul, the innermost self.

Path of wisdom or Gnana is opposed to common sense because common sense egocentric whereas the wisdom is soul centric. Common sense is habitual and imitative. Common sense is very much required in practical life within the practical world, but in pursuit of truth sharpness to grasp and receptiveness soul centric intelligence attitude is very much necessary.

 One can discover these best by considering the terms of praise or blame which are employed in behalf of commonsense. When personal views are condemned as contrary to common-sense is applicable only in practical life within the practical world (realm of duality).  

Opinions, views and Judgments based on common sense actual and implied cannot be accepted as ultimate and final because common sense can be applied only in realm of duality. 

In pursuit of truth opinions, views judgments derived from commonsense has no value because the common sense is egocentric (form) whereas the ultimate truth is based on soul (formless).  

He who has realized the ultimate truth or Brahman transcends the duality or mind where he sees no second thing other than consciousness.   Yogi who sees the universe as reality may try to deny it because he thinks thoughtlessness is Brahman. 

The yogi sees the universe as a second thing and he wants to banish the universe in Samadhi, because he does not know that in nonduality there is no need to deny the universe. But he has to realize the fact that, universe is not something different from the self, which consciousness. Those who cannot grasp and realize this position, misunderstand it, and wrongly hold it be yogic Samadhi where there is only blankness. 

The presence of the world, which confronts a Gnani, is not an obstacle to his realization; he does not need yogic Samadhi.  But yogi has imagined Brahman as blankness or thoughtlessness thus he is still in the grip of duality.  Thus Yogis Brahman is but a thought.  Brahman is not a thought but Brahman is prior to any mind or universe.  Thus one has to know what is prior to waking experience.

The yogi who wrongly thinks there is Brahman to be got ,may attempt to do so, and may think he sees it, but all the time he under the delusion of duality because he bases his- self  on physical body, thinking Brahman to be something different from the soul, which is the true self.

When one becomes aware of the fact all the experiences of the three states and all the thoughts and words are Mind and mind in turn is consciousness then he has transcended thinking faculty
