Self-knowledge or Bramha Gnana or Atma Gnana is the destroyer of ignorance.

Only after realization of the fact that, the self is neither the waking entity nor the dream entity but the self is the formless substance and witness of three states, one gets the ‘vision of unity in diversity. 

The pure Consciousness assumes the forms of the three states. Consciousness though present in all the three states, it is not seen. Though it is light, it does not illumine. Though it always is, it is not in any place. It is indescribable. In its unity, where there is no duality, words become silent. 

Nothing can be created, sustained and destroy when it does not exist in reality. Thus the creation and creator theory is reality within the illusion. The creation creator is mere theory based on ignorance. In the realm of truth there is neither creation nor creator. There is no second thing exists other than consciousness.


Consciousness has manifested duality in the form universe where there is not even a place for one! Consciousness becomes as vast as the sky, including the entire universe within itself. Within it even darkness and non-existence dwell.


The words, "soul” and "mind” refer to but one; the consciousness alone exists as a universe or mind. Self-Knowledge or Bramha Gnana or Atma Gnana  is not an object of knowledge which requires various proofs to show that it exists.  The soul or self  is the Guru. Its true nature is actionlessness is absolute, without any trace of activity.

Self-knowledge or Bramha Gnana or Atma Gnana is the destroyer of ignorance. Consciousness is all pervading and the cause of all the three states. 

The means of attaining to Self-Realization for the acquisition of final liberation, serious seeker should constantly reflect into the nature of the mind or ’I’. 

The indifference with which one treats the excreta of a animal – such an indifference to the three states from the realm of Consciousness in view of their impermanent nature, is called pure dispassion.

Consciousness the formless substance and witness of the three states itself is alone permanent, the three states [seen] are opposed to it that is transient – such a settled conviction is truly known as discrimination. 

Turning away the focus of attention completely from the three states to the formless substance and witness of the three states with lots of patient endurance will help the seeking mind to establish in the Consciousness the true self. 

Through self knowledge one can be free from the bonds of this world that is birth, life and deaths. To acquire self-knowledge seeker must have a burning desire. 

Only that person who has intense urge and courage to accept the truth and reject the untruth and ready to drop all the pre-conceived ideas derived from the accumulated knowledge, and ready to learn to view and judge the worldview on the base of Consciousness as self, without arguing on the base of scriptural authorities, ready to accept only un -contradictable truth, is qualified indulge in pursuit of truth. Seeker of truth should constantly reflect with a view to attaining Knowledge, desiring his own good. 

Self-knowledge or Bramha Gnana or Atma Gnana is the destroyer of ignorance.is not brought about by any other means other than inquiry, analysis and reasoning on the true base, just as an object is nowhere perceived (seen) without the help of light.
