All religions survive on myths.+


All religions survive on myths. The rationalists would be on the more solid ground if they attacked myths of all religions. 

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 hidden by ignorance. 

Unfortunately, every religion is attacking the other considering them to be a myth. The only way out is to unfold the mystery of existence. 

Many paths theories and practices make one confused about which path and practice to use because each one of them claims to get the truth. Everyone tries this and still one is unable to unfold the mystery. The mystery of existence becomes a distant dream.

Religious truth is individual truth and it is not universal truth because religion is based on individuality. Spiritual truth is the universal truth. There is no scope for individuality in the realm of ultimate truth or Brahman. 

In the realm of ultimate truth or Brahman the form, time, and space are one in essence. The essence is invisible consciousness. Thus consciousness alone is real and eternal and all else is merely an illusion.

The scriptures give many advice and remedies and each of them claims to be infallible. 

It is high time for them the shift their attention from all the theories and practices which are based on the physical self’ and indulge in Self-analysis and discover the facts of their own existence.

Yoga Vasistha:~ "Teachers, interpretations of sacred texts, the force of religious merit--none of these lead to the realization of that Ultimate Truth which is revealed in the clear reflection of the heart, engendered from contact with the good."

The only way to unfold the mystery of existence is a deeper self-search helps the seeker of the truth to discover and realize the true facts of his true existence through deeper self-search without the help of religion, glorifying Gods, scriptural studies, or yogic practice.

When the seeker realizes the facts of his true existence then realizes that the ‘I’ is not the ‘Self’ but the ‘I’ is the mind, which is present in the form of the universe.

The waking experience is a dualistic illusion. Thus, the seeker realizes the fact that whatever he believed and experienced as reality on the base of the ‘I’ is an illusion. Since the formless non-dual substance of ‘I’ is the Self. Thus, it is necessary to seek the truth.

When the seeker inquiries into the nature of the mind, which is present in the form of the universe, then he realizes that ‘I’ is the mind. And the mind itself is the universe.

The truth- realization is a gradual process. The seeker progresses gradually. The first requirement is a strong aspiration which gives rise to the inquiry and reason. ~ Santthosh Kumaar
