All the ‘I-centric’ or ‘You-centric’ Gurus and their teachings are not the Advaitic wisdom of Sage  Sankara.

By keeping quiet the ignorance will not vanish. 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: ~ VC-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, is 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 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 reality. Perfect understanding and assimilation of ‘what is what’ lead to Advaitic awareness. 

Remember:~

Advaitic wisdom is not found in scriptures or books. There are only hidden parables here and there. There is no clear-cut wisdom whatsoever in this. Mere words ~ are just a collection of words. The wisdom is hidden within the world in which we exist. The truth is not found in the world because the world is merely an illusion created out of consciousness. The ultimate truth is beyond form, time, and space.

Mundaka Upanishad:~ The study of the Vedas, linguistics, Rituals, astronomy, and all the arts Can be called lower knowledge. The higher is that which leads to Self-realization. The eye cannot see it; the mind cannot grasp it. The deathless 'Self' has neither caste nor race, neither eyes nor ears nor hands nor feet. Sages say this Self is infinite in the great and in the small, everlasting and changeless, the source of life.

All these selected quotes from the scriptures are helpful to think deeply nothing more. 

In pursuit of truth, the ultimate truth has to be proved, not assumed. Pundits who take scriptures for granted are not Gnanis.

Pundits teach that all is yourself, but none of them can show that this is so, none has analyzed it scientifically, and none can prove it. 

Rational proof is needed so that one arrives at knowing truth i.e. wisdom; punditry is mere dogma, parrotism, and repetition of what they read in scripture. 

Scriptures are not yardstick and the scriptural truth is not proof. Pundits take scripters as an authority. Authoritarianism merely assumes as true what another says, but what has yet to be proved.

Pundits have to test the truth in this world, not in the next world. There is no proof other than blind belief based on the scriptures, belief is not the truth. 

So, doctrines are not the means to realize the truth. There is no need to follow them to acquire self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana.

Doubts and Confusion arise when the seeker finds the scripters and yoga are inadequate or useless to quench his spiritual thirst. 

Disappointments in religion or yoga or even science imply error or ignorance. Seeker reaches a stage whether he is right?" Where is the certainty that he is proceeding on the right lines?" 

Thus, the doubts arise and the inquiring spirit comes and impels to search elsewhere for truth where it will not be possible even to have doubt. The test is, therefore, in realization. And only in non-duality, where there are no two to argue about views or to have differences of opinion can such doubtlessness be possible. Belief depends upon unstable bases whereas certainty depends on the proof.

The seeker of truth has to get rid of his doubts through deeper self-search on his own, to realize that, the 'Self' is not the form but the ' Self' is formless. Thus, his analysis and reasoning have to be based on the formless (Soul), not on the form(ego). 

Simply believing and accepting whatever is said by the punditry will not lead one towards the path of wisdom. All the doubt has to be got rid of "by the sword of Self-knowledge. 

According to the scriptures, yoga is not necessary if one follows the inner (formless) path. Religion and yoga are not the means to the path of wisdom.  : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
