The universe will not vanish when wisdom dawns, only the ignorance disappears and the unreal nature of the universe is exposed, the same way as the unreal nature of the dream exposed when the waking takes place. The wisdom dawns in the midst of duality because in reality there is no duality. Nothing is needed other than a perfect understanding of ‘what is what’ is needed.
The ultimate truth or Brahman cannot be experienced because it is prior to any experience. The experience belongs to individuality. And individuality is a falsehood. There is neither individual nor his experience in the reality.
The world in which you exist cannot exist without waking experience. Whatever we are discussing, we are discussing within the waking experience. from the ultimate standpoint the waking experience mere an illusion. Thus, whatever is known, seen, believed, and experienced as a person is bound to be a falsehood.
Remember:~
Sage Sankara said: ~ 63- VC- “Without causing the objective universe to vanish and without knowing the truth of the ‘Self’ how is one to achieve Liberation.
The universe in which we exist will not remain as reality when wisdom dawns. The universe is a mere illusion created out of consciousness and there is conscious awareness of unity in diversity because there is no second thing that exists other than consciousness.
Realization is of the Soul as the ‘Self’ is Perfection. The non-dualistic truth cannot be comprehended by the dualistic perspective.
The universe is a reality only on the dualistic perspective. The universe is an illusion on the non-dualistic perspective.
From the non-dualistic perspective the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness is the sole reality. There is no second thing that exists other than the Soul in non-dualistic reality.
The Soul is an unknown reality on the dualistic perspective and the universe is a known reality, on the dualistic perspective. The universe hides the Soul, which is the cause of the universe and it itself is uncaused.
Sage Sankara: ~ VC~.63: "Without knowing and examining the universe, one can’t know the Truth, as the idea that the external world exists, won't go. It can go only by an inquiry into the nature of the external world.
Sage Sankara says: ~ “What is accepted without a proper inquiry will not lead a person to the final goal. On the contrary, such acceptance will result only in evil, in something detrimental to our spiritual progress.
Sage Sankara says~ VC-47- All the effects of ignorance, root, and branch, are burnt down by the fire of knowledge, which arises from discrimination between these two—the Self and the non-Self.
Until you think you are an individual separate from the world and the world existed prior to you and you are born in it afterward the ignorance will prevail as a reality. Till ignorance is there the universe prevails as reality.
Sage Sankara says: ~ “The exercise in discrimination between real and unreal and renunciation of the false is real meditation, then why you are indulging in other types of meditation.
Perfect understanding and realization of ‘what is what’ leads to Self-awareness. By holding onto theories one remains in the realm of duality. You have to mentally go on dropping what is not the truth through deeper Self-search. Finally when you become aware of the fact that, your ego, your body, and the world are one in essence then there is Self-awareness in the midst of duality.:~ Santthosh Kumaar
