All the
teachings limit the ‘I’ to an individual and glorify the ‘I’ without
knowing what this ‘I’ is 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 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, 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.
All the ‘I-centric’ or ‘You-centric’ Gurus and their teaching are not the Advaitic wisdom of Sage Sankara. Advaitic wisdom of Sage Sankara unfolds the mystery hidden by ‘I’.
All the religious scriptures and
Holy books are irrelevant -- God's greatest book is just in front of you.
That
is why Sage Sankara says you
must first know what is before you. If you cannot know that, what else can you
know or understand? If you give up the external world in your inquiry, you
cannot get the whole truth.
You have to study the book of the nature of the universe carefully and find and realize God hidden by it.
The universe is the real Veda, the
real Koran, the real Bible. The universe is the book, and all other books are man-made.
Only when you open the book of
the universe the God hidden in the book will be revealed. When you finish reading the book of the
universe then the universe will become an illusion and God alone prevails as the ultimate reality.
Sage Sankara says: ~ “What is accepted without a proper inquiry will not lead a
person to the final goal. On the contrary, such acceptance will result
only in evil, something which is detrimental to our spiritual
progress.
Millions are searching for the truth but one million will realize it. You are one from those million because you have the
intense urge to realize the ultimate truth.
When the seeker is ready, the guidance comes
on its own. An earnest desire to grow and a sense of deep commitment are
the hallmarks of one who aspires to be a seeker.
When at the core of one’s
being a person comes to realize he/she needs to seek a path for coming out of
one’s unconscious and conditioned life, mysteriously the guidance appears to
guide and shows the way.
Remember:~
First, realize you
along with the world in which you exist belong to the dualistic illusion or
Maya. The dualistic illusion hides the Soul, the Self, which is present in the
form of consciousness because the dualistic illusion is created out of the
Soul, the Self.
The dualistic illusion
has nothing to do with the Soul, the Self because the Soul, the Self is ever
formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.
That is why Sage Sankara says: ~ 65. As a treasure hidden underground requires (for its extraction)
competent instruction, excavation, the removal of stones and other such things
lying above it, and (finally) grasping, but never comes out by being (merely)
called out by name, so the transparent Truth of the Self, which is hidden by
Maya and its effects are to be attained through the instructions of a knower of
Brahman, followed by reflection, meditation and so forth, but not through
perverse arguments.
Remember: ~
You are not you but consciousness; your body is
not the body but consciousness, the world in which you exist is not the
world but consciousness.
Everything that is known, seen, believed, and
experienced by you is nothing but consciousness then what else remains,
which is not consciousness.
There is nothing else to realize other than to
realize that consciousness alone is, everything else is merely an illusion created
out of consciousness.
The Advaitic
wisdom dawns by realizing everything is consciousness. There is no room for the
duality in Advaitic reality. A perfect
understanding and assimilation of ‘what is what’ lead to Advaitic awareness. :
