The goal of the truth-seeker is to acquire Self- knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana. Self- knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana is inherent in every seeker of truth.
What is the use of arguing on the base of the birth entity, which is not the Self?
What is the use of knowing what happens after death when the Self is birthless?
What is the use of thinking of heaven and hell when the ‘Self ‘is not an individual and it is never born and never dies?
Human knowledge is dualistic knowledge. Dualistic knowledge is helpful only in practical life in the practical world. Dualistic knowledge is not Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana. Dualistic knowledge is based on form, time, and space whereas Self-knowledge is based on the formless, timeless, and spaceless existence. Self-knowledge Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana is Soulcentric knowledge.
To acquire Self-knowledge the seeker must realize 'Self' is not the ‘I’ but the Self is the Soul, which witnesses the coming and going, of the ‘I’. Whatever knowledge is based on ‘I’ is dualistic. And whatever is based on the Soul, the Self is nondualistic. The seeker must discard the ‘I’ to get Advaitic Gnana.
Whatever teachings available so far are inadequate and useless to acquire Self-knowledge. All the teachings glorified the ‘I’ and glorified the Gurus.
All the ‘I-centric teaching Leads to hallucination based on imagination.
The Soul is the best object of study. Theoretical study of Soul does not take the seeker very far, though it is always better to study Soul than to be completely ignorant about his existence.
The path of wisdom attracts only those who are in search of truth and they appreciate it greatly. The ignorant are not spiritually matured the receive Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana. The ignorant indulge in argument and provocation and personal attack, which hinder their own realization of the ultimate truth or Brahman.
That is why Jesus said:~ Do not throw your pearls before pigs, lest they trample them underfoot and turn to attack you. (Matthew -7:6)
~ Jesus meant knowledge of the Spirit or Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana
Bhagavad Gita says: ~ “Don't unsettle the minds of ignorant by revealing the esoteric truth."
Katha Upanishad says: ~ This Atman is attained by him alone whom It chooses. (II -23-P-20)
Thus, those who have taken the path of wisdom are chosen ones. The chosen one will get the grace of the Soul the inner Guru. The path of wisdom is the Soulcentric path, whereas all other paths are egocentric. All egocentric paths are leads to hallucination.
The Soul, the Self reveals: ‘what is real’ and ‘what is unreal” when the seeker is receptive and ready.
Sage Sankara restrained himself parting the Advaitic wisdom to the masses and parted with only a selected few. Advaitic wisdom was hidden from the mass that was not qualified and receptive to it. Advaitic wisdom was not written down but was imparted orally to the chosen few. Thus, religion was given to the masses, and knowledge of the Spirit is given only selected a few. Thus, we find traces of the knowledge of the Spirit in the religious books in the form of parables.
The Soul, the Self reveals ‘what is real’ and ‘what is unreal” when the seeker is receptive and ready.
Do not believe in a thing because you have read about it in a book. Do not believe in a thing because wise man has said it was true. Do not believe in words because they are hallowed by dualistic knowledge Find out the truth for yourself. Use Soulcentric reason, which leads to the realization of the truth, which is beyond the form, time, and space.
Advaitic wisdom can never be gained by argument and provocation. Discard all the accumulated dualistic knowledge by realizing the world in which you exist, exists because of ignorance. Get rid of the ignorance by realizing the world in which you exist is created out of single clay and that single clay is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.
Realizing the ‘Self’’ is not you but the Soul is Self-realization. The Soul is the cause of the universe and it itself is uncaused.
Katha Upanishad says:~ Fools dwelling in darkness, but thinking themselves wise and erudite, go round and round, by various tortuous paths, like the blind led by the blind. (Ch~ II-5 P-14)
Those who indulge in the perverted argument on their own standpoint and opinion are not seeking the truth, which is beyond form, time, and space. They just want to exhibit their accumulated knowledge accumulated from here and there. They think what they know is the ultimate truth.
They think whatever they propagate is the ultimate truth. The question never occurs to them, “Is what I know is really the truth
It is for every seeker, who is in the Atmic path to realize himself “What is truth, “and “What is untruth?” to assimilate Advaitic wisdom or Self –Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana. My postings are only signposts. The seeker needs to reflect constantly on the subject till the cobwebs of his doubts and confusion get cleared.
My main intention is to divert the seekers' attention to the source from where the universe rises and subsides.
Reading and reflecting on my blogs and postings gradually, the seekers will start assimilating and realizing ‘what is the truth’ and what the untruth is. Repeated reading my blogs and postings make the seeker, Soulcentric, and the inner dialogue will start and clear all the doubts and confusion.
When there is no doubts and confusion, then they have realized the truth that the form, time, and space are one in essence. And that essence is consciousness. There is no use in wasting time in questioning and arguing same time and effort has to be used to make the seeker more independent and without external spoon-feeding, he can reach the inner core, which is the Soul, which is present in the form of the consciousness.
The words that mean different things to different people, it is what's behind the words, between the lines that matter. Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana is meant for the class, not for the mass. : ~Santthosh Kumaar
