The religious gurus and yogis say, God is like Ananda or bliss, but their bliss is physically based. +




Most people will not understand what I am driving at because they are seeking something that they can enjoy in this world. 

The ambition of the true spiritual seeker is to realize the ‘Self’, which is beyond form, time, and space. 

People are looking for an advantage in the practical world, to take care of their practical life~ that is the maximum they expect out of spirituality.

The so-called Gurus and yogis focus their ambition on seeing that their daily life goes on comfortably. Nobody is ready to inquire about the truth of their true existence.

All likes and dislikes are of the ego. All good and bad belong to the ego. The desires belong to the ego. 

The ego belongs to the duality. The duality is merely an illusion. Your body and your experience of the world belong to the ego.  The ego, the body, and the world appear together and disappear together. 

The yogi who wants to go to the Himalayas or an ashram for Brahman has not risen above thinking of his body, and will not get Brahman. 

The yogi or mystic wants to take his body from one place to another in the belief this will bring Brahman. 

Intuition always implies knowing something, hence a second, hence, it is rejected as the duality. 

Even if it is the intuition of the infinite, of bliss, God, etc., it is still a pointer to duality. Therefore, I say the way to truth, i.e. Non-duality is not intuition, not mysticism but reason. 

Knowledge means to know something and this implies duality. The inquiry begins in duality. 

Thus, we make use of duality and ask "What is this?" Thus, we eventually arrive at the truth with the help of illusion. 

All knowledge is imagination. Take one thorn to remove another and then throw both away. Use the reason to remove ignorance and dispense with both. 

People are not impressed to get rid of ignorance; but if they are impressed only to get rid of their present miseries, of the practical life within the practical world. 

The religious gurus and yogis say, God is like Ananda or bliss, but their bliss is physically based. There is no use in getting physical-based bliss because the ‘Self’ is not the body. 

All sugar-coated words attract the ignorant populace. The person who talks of the ‘I’ is still in the world of ignorance. 

There is nothing to realize other than realizing, that the whole universe in which we exist is created out of single stuff. That single stuff is the Soul (consciousness or spirit). Knowledge of that single stuff is ‘Self’-knowledge or Bramha Gnana or Atma Gnana. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
