Religion is based on the ego. Spirituality is based on the Soul, the Self.+

Religion is based on the ego. Spirituality is based on the Soul, the Self.  You are the ego because without the ego,  you, and the world in which you exist cease to exist.

The ego is the very basis of the world in which you exist. Without the ego, the world in which you exist ceases to exist.   

Thus, the physical body, ego, and the world appear together and disappear together.  It is impossible to get rid of the ego alone because the ego exists only when the physical body and the world are present. The people who are trying to get rid of the ego will never succeed.

The world in which you exist is the product of ignorance.    Thus, the seeker has to get rid of the ignorance not the ego. A perfect understanding and realization of ‘what is what leads helps to get rid of ignorance.

All accumulated knowledge becomes an obstacle to realizing the truth, which is beyond form, time, and space.  

Religious believers constantly quarreling with one another claiming that their religion is superior to other religions. They haven't the intelligence to understand that in reality there is nothing that exists other than the universal God, which is present in the form of the Spirit. The Spirit is the Self. 

The ultimate truth is One and universal. All people are seeking the same Truth..... Everyone is going toward the ultimate Goal. They will all realize the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth if they have sincerity and longing to realize it.  

Religion causes one to become crippled, Self-mortifying and Self-deprecating is not a religion, but the social system of controlling the populace through psychological deformation and retardation.

One can think only within the waking experience. Therefore, even if one stops thinking he still remains a man without the thoughts. 

The thoughts will not form without form, feeling, perception mental formation, and consciousness. If one of these things is not there, then the thoughts will not form.

The thoughts will not stop until one becomes aware of the fact that, the Self is formless. It is impossible to get rid of the form without understanding ‘What is the mind? is and ‘What is the substance of the mind? ‘What is the source of the mind?

The formless Soul, the ‘Self’, when known becomes an object. The Soul, when realized, then it becomes consciousness. This is the distinction between knowing and realizing.: ~Santthosh Kumaar
