All
the rivers disappear in the ocean losing their names and forms. So, the Soul,
the Self is free from you along with the universe, which is the dualistic
illusion or Maya.
The universe is nothing but an illusion created out of the Soul the
Self. The Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness, is God in
truth. God in Truth can be realized by acquiring the Self-knowledge or Brahma
Gnana or Atma Gnana. Ultimately, God alone exists as eternal existence.
The Advaitic wisdom of Sage Sri, Sankara is associated with universal
truth or Brahman or God. Advaitic wisdom is not concerned with Hinduism or
Buddhism or any other “ism,” or any other religion but only with God in Truth,
which is universal God in truth is realized only when the ignorance vanishes through
Advaitic wisdom.
The Soul, the Self is the real God and eternal Truth. The truth reveals
to the serious seekers seeking the truth. The truth is more easily accessible
to the seeker through the Gnanis who impart Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or
Atma Gnana to struggling humanity, which is mostly groping in darkness.
Since the Soul, the Self is in the bondage of the dualistic illusion
(universe) can be redeemed only through Advaitic wisdom.
The Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness, is the
ultimate reality hidden by the dualistic illusion of the form, time and
space. Gnanis who attain complete unity with the ultimate reality or Brahman or
God. Self-Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana is gained to those who seek
earnestly.
That is why Jesus said:~"Those
who seek should not stop seeking until they find. When they find, they will be
disturbed. When they are disturbed, they will marvel, and will reign over
all." (Gospel of Thomas 2)
By realizing the universe in which we exist is created out single
stuff. That single stuff is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. The consciousness is real and eternal.
When the truth is realized then the world in which we exist will not
disappear but the unreal nature ‘of the world in which we exist is exposed.
Same way as the unreal nature of the dream is exposed when the waking takes
place.
The consciousness (Spirit) is the root element of the universe. From the
consciousness, the universe comes into existence. In consciousness, the
universe resides. And into the consciousness, the universe is dissolved. The
consciousness is the parent of all that is there is.
The Soul is hidden within the mind. And the mind is within the Soul. The
mind is present in the form of the universe and the Soul is present in the form
of the consciousness. The universe appears as waking or dream (duality) and
disappears as deep sleep (nonduality).
The one that witnesses the coming and going of the three states is the
Soul. on the standpoint of the Soul, the three states come and goes are mere
an illusion.
The mind is within the Soul and the Soul is within the mind. The chicken is in the egg and the egg is in the chicken. The tree is in
the seed and the seed is in the tree.
The same thing that was told by the Vedas was repeated by the Saint John
(10-38)~ Father is in me and I am in Father.
Thus, the father (Spirit or Soul) is our immediate, neighbor- love thy
neighbor. Therefore, one has to love the Spirit or Soul or God, in order to
become one with the formless Spirit or Soul, the real God. The Spirit is the
creator, sustainer, and dissolver of the dualistic illusion.
Self-realization is necessary in order to realize the ultimate truth or
Brahman or God. Self-realization is the real God-realization. : ~ Santthosh
