It is of no use in saying I AM THAT within the universe, which is dualistic illusion or Maya.+

Why you are saying I AM THAT when the Self is not you but the Soul is hidden by the ‘I’. You are saying I AM THAT within the world in which you exist.

The world in which you exist is the dualistic illusion or Maya. It is of no use in saying I AM THAT within the universe, which is dualistic illusion or Maya. The Soul, the Self is not within you but it is hidden by the universe, which is the dualistic illusion or Maya.

Advaitic wisdom is a great treasure with which seekers are unacquainted. The great treasure is hidden under ignorance.

The universe does not simply possess consciousness, it is consciousness, and this consciousness is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth.

The dualistic illusion or Maya hides the Self. Realize the ‘Self’ is not you but the Soul, which is present in the form of the consciousness.

The dualistic illusion or Maya is present in the form of the ‘I’. The ‘I’ appears and disappears. The ‘Self is not the ‘I’. The Soul, the ‘Self’ is always present is hidden by the ‘I’.

Remember:~

The Soul without the ‘I’ is God. God is hidden by ‘I’.

The ‘I’ is not an individual because the ‘I’ is the whole universe. Limiting the ‘I’ to individuality is the cause of experiencing the dualistic illusion of reality?

The nature of the ‘I’ is the nature of the mind.

The nature of the mind is the nature of the universe.

The nature of the universe is the nature of the waking.

The nature of waking is the nature of the illusion.

Thus, it is necessary to study the nature of the ‘I’ to unfold the mystery of the universe.

All the teachings limit the ‘I’ to an individual and glorify the ‘I’ without knowing what this ‘I’ supposed to be in actuality.

All ‘I-centric teachings are inadequate and useless for the serious seeker of truth.

If you are seeking truth nothing but the truth must discard without mercy such teaching in order to progress in your spiritual quest.

The seeker must know the ‘I’ is not limited to individuality. The seeker has to see the ‘I’ as the universe, in order to overcome ignorance. When the Advaitic wisdom dawns, then the ignorance vanishes.

When ignorance vanishes and the dualistic illusion (world) you used to think as reality becomes unreal. :~Santthosh Kumaar
