Going to searching for guru, renouncing the family life are the gretest obstical in the path of wisdom. +

One need not renounce the worldly life and become a sanyasi or monk. One need not retire from his business or corporate job and become a Guru, all these religious and yogic propagated outdated ideas have to be discarded to realize the truth of the true existence.

Do not become a slave to all these outdated religious and yogic ideas. Religion and yoga are not meant for those who seriously seeking the truth.

There is no need to follow anyone. Self–realization becomes easy if you independently walk your path.

Atmic path is your own path. You have to tread the path alone to reach it alone, finally, nothing remains as reality other than the Athma the Soul.

Stop emotionally and sentimentally getting stuck with the Guru.

That is why Bhagavān Buddha: ~ Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders.

Sage Sankara was a Gnani. Most of the modern masters are not Gnani. And you have to understand that to be a Gnani is one thing; to be a Guru is different.

Out of a million people, perhaps one is a Gnani. Most of the Self-realized decide to remain silent – seeing the difficulty, that whatever they have realized is impossible to convey in any possible way to others; seeing that not only is it difficult to convey, but it is bound to be misunderstood too.

A Gnani never claims himself as a Gnani, he guides the seekers, not posing himself as a Guru, and he does not force his wisdom on others. A Gnani is not a religious person or Yogi.

One need not roam one mountain to another, one ashram to another, or meet gurus or yogis to get Gnana. One can get a Gnana and become a Gnani wherever he lives.

We all are searching for truth within the illusion of not being aware of the fact that the illusion is created out of a single stuff which is the formless Soul, the innermost self. The Soul is present in the form of consciousness.

Thus, searching for the truth in the illusion with the illusory self, within the illusory experience, has to be an illusion.

The illusion is created and sustained and finally dissolves as consciousness. There is no second thing that exists other than consciousness. Consciousness is the ultimate truth or Brahman. Brahman itself is God in truth.

Remember:~

There is no need to go to the mountains in search of the truth. There is no need to meet any gurus.

There is no need to renounce family life. There is no need to study the scriptures. There is no need to glorify the gurus.

There is no need to spend a fortune to please the gurus. Going to the mountains, searching for a guru, renouncing the family life, studying the scriptures, and glorifying the personal gods and gurus are the greatest obstacles in the path of Self-realization.

One need not be a monk, a sanyasi, or a swami to acquire Self-knowledge or Bramha Gnana or Atma Gnana.

Religious orthodoxy and scriptural mastery are not qualifications to acquire Self-knowledge or Bramha Gnana or Atma Gnana. Monkhood and sanyasa are the greatest obstacles in the pursuit of truth.

Guru, Swami, Yogi, Sadhu, and Avatara belong to religious paths. Religious path is a path meant for ignorants who blindly accept their experience the birth, life, death, and the world as reality because the universe is a product of ignorance.

When Advaitic wisdom dawns then the unreal nature of the universe is exposed. Thus whatever experience takes place within the universe is bound to be falsehood. Therefore, the Guru,

Swami, Yogi, Sadhu, and Avatara have nothing to do with the ultimate truth or Brahman because they are based on the false self (ego or waking entity) and false experience (waking).

Path of wisdom is only for those who are seriously in search of ultimate truth or Brahman.

Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana is the mother of all knowledge thus it is not accumulated knowledge.:~Santthosh Kumaar
