First, realize what is this ‘I’ supposed to be in actuality.+

 

Normally people think the 'I' is limited to an individual but it is not so. A deeper self-search reveals the fact that 'I' is the whole universe.

The Self is not the ‘I’. 

The ‘I’ is present in the form of the mind.  

The mind (I) is present in the form of the universe. 

The universe (I) appears as the waking (I) or the dream (I) and disappears as deep sleep.  

The duality (I) is present only in waking or dream. 

The duality (I) is absent in deep sleep. 

That is the duality (I) is present the nonduality is absent. 

Nonduality is the nature of the Soul. Therefore, the Soul becomes the mind. And the mind becomes the Soul. 

The Soul and mind (I) are one in essence. That essence is the Soul which is present in the form of consciousness.  Consciousness is ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth.

Remember:~

First, realize what is this ‘I’ supposed to be in actuality.

The ‘I’ is present in the form of the mind. The mind is present in the form of the universe. The universe is present in the form of form, time, and space.

Without the form, time, and space, there is no duality. The duality is not a reality from the standpoint of the Soul, the Self.

The mind is present in the form of form, time, and space. Thus, whatever belongs to form, time and space is falsehood.

The universe in which we exist is a reality within the falsehood. Thus, there is a need to know ‘what is what’ in order to realize the truth, which is hidden by the illusory form, time, and space.

The ‘I’ disappears as deep sleep, so what is the use of being attached to it? It is impermanent and illusory because ‘I’ is physical awareness. Physical awareness is not Self-awareness. ‘I-less awareness is Self-awareness.

There is really no ‘I’. The ‘I’ is present in the form of the mind. And the mind is in the form of the universe. And the universe appears as a waking or dream. The ‘I’ or mind or the universe or waking or dream dies disappears as deep sleep.

Thus, one that appears as ‘I’ or mind or the universe or waking or dream is consciousness, and it disappears as deep sleep is also consciousness. In deep sleep, it is in its formless nondual true nature.

The one, which witnesses the coming and going of the three states, is also consciousness. Thus, the witness and witnessed are one in essence.

Thus, the universe is a reality on the base of individuality and the universe is unreal on the base of the Soul, the Self.

The seeker gradually will grasp and realize the unreal nature of the universe or mind. Individuality is illusory because the Self is not an individual because the Soul, the Self is formless and non-dual, and it pervades everything and everywhere in all three states. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
