Status of God in truth.
There is no place for a personal God (Ishvara) in Advaitic Reality.
Rig Veda: ~ 'Prajnanam Brahma'- Consciousness is the ultimate reality or Brahman or God in truth.
Do not accept any other God other than the Soul. The Soul is God in truth, Nothing is real but the Soul, which present in the form of consciousness. Nothing Matters but realize God in truth. God in truth is everywhere and in everything. Let these words be inscribed in your subconscious.
God in truth is hidden by the illusory universe. God in truth alone is real and eternal and all else is an illusion.:
Brahman is merely a word to indicate the ultimate truth or God in truth. The ultimate truth itself is God in truth.
Remember:~
Mixing the Gods based on blind faith or belief becomes the greatest hindrance in the pursuit of truth.
All religious propagated personal Gods are not God in truth according to Vedas.
How does one know there are separate personal Gods? No one has seen such God other than it is mentioned in the mythological stories. mythical Gods are a Myth.
Yajurveda – chapter- 32:~ God is Supreme Spirit has no ‘Pratima’ (idol) or material shape. God cannot be seen directly by anyone. God pervades all beings and all directions.
Thus, personal Gods does not find any support from the Vedas.
Rig Veda: ~ The Atman is the cause; Atman is the support of all that exists in this universe. May ye never turn away from the Atman, the Self. May ye never accept another God in place of the Atman nor worship other than the Atman?" (10:48, 5)
Bhagavad Gita: ~ ‘All those whose intelligence has been stolen by material desires, they worship many God s. (7- Verse -20)
Only the path of wisdom leads the seeker of truth on his journey to the ultimate realization of the true nature of the Universal Essence, which is the Soul. The Soul is present in the form of consciousness.
Bhagavad Gita: 7: 19:~ "Such a man who has attained true knowledge, the knowledge of Self, the knowledge of Atman, worships ‘Self’ as~ Atman (God) alone exists~ everything is Atman, there exists nothing except Atman. Such a man is extremely rare."
Bhagavad Gita: ~ Brahmano hi pratisthaham ~ Brahman (God) is considered the all-pervading consciousness, which is the basis of all the animate and inanimate entities and material. (14.27).
When Bhagavad Gita says, God is considered the all-pervading consciousness which is the basis of all the animate and inanimate entities and material then nothing has to be accepted as God other than consciousness.
Brihadaranyaka Upanishad: ~ Brahman (God) is in the form of the Athma, and it is indeed Athma itself.
People, who worship the belief of God, are hallucinating that they become one with such God.
Vedas itself declares: May ye never accept another God in place of the Atman nor worship other than the Atman?
Thus, to know the real God Self-realization is necessary. Self-realization is God-realization. God-realization itself is real worship.
Brihadaranyaka Upanishad:~ "He who worships the deities as entities entirely separate from the Atman, the Self does not know the truth. For the Gods, he is like a pasu (beast)". (1. 4. 10)
The universe is, in an ultimate sense, described as "false" because the consciousness appears as the waking experience due to ignorance.
The waking experience is a reality from the standpoint of the waking entity. And the waking experience is falsehood from the standpoint of the Soul the innermost Self.
Just as the waking experience is false, the man and his experiences, which are present within the waking experience, is also false. The experience of birth, life, death which happens within the world is also false.
The form, time, and space within the waking experience are also false. Karma and Bhakti are nothing to do with ultimate truth or Brahman. The people, who talk about personal God, Karma are not fit for Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana. :~Santthosh Kumaar
