What we don't know is hidden by what we know.  A Gnani is one who has discovered the hidden reality by identifying the Self as a Soul.

A Gnani does not teach the seeker anything but he makes then realizes the truth hidden by the ‘I’, which is the dualistic illusion or Maya.

When the seeker Inquiry into the nature of the ‘I’ then he will realize the ‘Self’ hidden by the illusory ‘I’. The ‘I’ itself is the dualistic illusion or Maya.  

When the ‘Self’ is not ‘I’ or ‘you’  but the ‘Self is the Soul then what is the use of saying I am not the body, I am not the mind, I am not this or I am not that.

It is no  use of saying ‘I AM THAT’ without knowing what the ‘Self’ is in actuality.  Without knowing the truth of the Self, without realizing the truth of the world in which you exist it is impossible to realize the truth hidden by the illusory form, time, and space. By a mere utterance of the word ‘I AM THAT', the truth will not be revealed.

Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana is nothing to do with the ‘I-centric' or You-centric’   Gurus and their teachings. 

Remember:~

the ‘I’ is not an individual because the ‘I’ is the whole universe. Limiting the ‘I’ to individuality is the cause of experiencing the dualistic illusion a reality? 

The nature of the ‘I’ is the nature of the mind. 

The nature of the mind is the nature of the universe. 

The nature of the universe is the nature of the waking. 

The nature of waking is the nature of the illusion.

Thus, it is necessary to study the nature of the ‘I’ to unfold the mystery of the universe. 

All the teachings limit the ‘I’ to an individual and glorify the ‘I’ without knowing what this ‘I’ supped to be in actuality. All ‘I’ based 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 in order 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, in order to overcome ignorance. When the Advaitic wisdom dawns, then ignorance vanishes. 

When ignorance vanishes and the dualistic illusion (world) you used to think as reality becomes unreal. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
