The words are used only for communication purposes. The look of an object will depend upon the medium through which the observer views it. In fact, our mental and intellectual conditions will determine the phenomenal world observed and experienced.
Some people pass their opinion based on their accumulated knowledge thinking their accumulated knowledge as the ultimate truth but their ‘I’ know attitude merely brings on a little personal enjoyment to them but itis no good for Self-realization.
Atmic path is not a path of exchange of views and opinion but the path of realization of the truth, which is beyond the form, time, and space.
Swami Vivekananda:~ The wicked are always looking for defects. Flies come and seek for the ulcer, and bees come only for the honey in the flower. Do not follow the way of the fly but that of the bee.
Instead of finding fault first realize what the Self is in actuality. Honest introspection will reveal that all fault lies with “you” and “your "own perceptions and attitudes. If there is an error in understanding what 'Self' is in actuality it is in “you". Correcting this and changing to a Soulcentric attitude will change your perception and then the Soul; the 'Self' will reveal its formless, timeless, and spaceless true nature. If you are unable to grasp the truth hidden by the ‘I’ then you will never be able to grasp nonduality or Advaita.
Remember
:~The ignorant viewing the world confronting him sees it differently from a Gnani viewing the same world. Each one of us interprets the world one sees in terms of his existing knowledge. A Gnani sees the world and its contents as the illusory play as consciousness whereas ignorant sees the world and its contents as a reality.
Without the realization of the ultimate truth or Brahman man remains ignorant of the ultimate truth or Brahman. Without the realization of the ultimate truth, the seeker remains as a seeker. On the physical plane, there is a seeker, seeking, and destination but from the ultimate standpoint, there is neither seer, seeking, and or destination.
The words may give different meanings at different levels of understanding. As one moves deeper and deeper one realizes the thought, the thinker, words, and the world are one in essence. Thus in the realm of truth, the thought and words become meaningless.
When one has realized that which lies beyond form, time, and space do not give importance to thoughts and words which has value only in falsehood.
The world is both real and unreal. It is real because it is a manifestation of consciousness, but is unreal, in the sense, that it is not absolute and eternal like the consciousness itself.
People's approach is more practical, and they are stuck with the reality of the world, they take it as real. That is why all the confusion. : ~Santthosh Kumaar
