Advaitic wisdom of Sage Sankara reveals a realization of the exact status of the universe in relation to Reality.+

Advaita the profound truth of ‘One-without-a-second. Without a perfect understanding of 'what is what’ which may, in turn, lead to an incomplete realization of the truth hidden by the dualistic illusion or Maya.

By hearing the Guru's statements describing the ultimate reality without any means at our disposal for approaching such a truth.

Atman is the foundation of Advaitic wisdom. Advaitic wisdom need not be compromised in allowing for the ‘mundane’, empirical experience of people because the Advaitic reality is beyond experience. 

Through Advaitic wisdom, one realizes the truth hidden by the dualistic illusion or Maya.

The Advaitic wisdom of Sage Sankara reveals a realization of the exact status of the universe in relation to Reality. 

Sage Sankara's wisdom is the greatest gift to humanity. He was a modernist stripping it of its religious or mystical overtones.

Sage  Sankara’s wisdom has nothing to do with religious feelings, mystic experiences, theological dogmas, or laws of science. The Advaitic wisdom of Sage  Sankara rests upon truth and it exposes the unreal nature of the universe and reveals the truth hidden by the universe.

Remember:~

Advaita is the Vedic truth. Advaita is the nature of the Atman, the Self. Advaita is the nature of the Brahman or God in truth. Advaita is not a religious concept but Advaita is Brahman or God in truth. Dvaita is ignorance. 

Ignorance is present in the form of the universe. Advaita is hidden by the Dvaita. When ignorance vanishes the Advaita will prevail as one without the second.  

Ignorance and illusion are the fundamental concepts in Advaita only Gnani are aware of what is this ignorance? and what is an illusion?

Advaitic wisdom is necessary to remove ignorance to realize the truth hidden by the illusion (Maya). Advaitic wisdom is the knowledge of the Atman, the Self, which is the cause of the universe. Without the Atman, the universe ceases to exist.

Ignorance is removed by the right knowledge.  Atman is a formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.  Atman is indescribable. Atman is concealed by the universe. 

Only when ignorance vanishes through Advaitic wisdom, the illusory nature of the universe is exposed and the Atman will shine as the ultimate reality or Brahman or God in truth. Atman itself God in truth is beginningless.

As long as ignorance remains the universe will prevail as reality.  The universe is nothing but the dualistic illusion created out of Atman, which is present in the form of consciousness.

Ignorance is without any beginning, and it will continue until it is removed by Self-knowledge and Advaitic wisdom dawns

The ignorance of the Self is the bondage of the Soul. The cessation of that ignorance is moksha or, liberation.

Though the Atman is the Self and Atman is Brahman, there is no knowledge of the Self in ignorance because the Atman, the Self is hidden by the dualistic illusion or Maya.  The individuality causes ignorance  of the Self, which is hidden by the dualistic illusion.

That which obstructs the knowledge of the Self is individuality because the Atman, the Self is not an individual. The Atman, the Self is not an individual because it pervades everywhere and in everything in the universe.

 The seekers of truth are interested in investigating the reality of their true existence. The seeker has to inquire about the nature of the universe to realize the mystery hidden by the universe.

What is the reality behind the universe?: What is ‘real’ or ‘unreal’? What is the nature of reality? The Seeker has to analyze the nature of reality and its relationship to the universe.

The essence of Sage Sankara’s wisdom   is to make one understand its fundamental tenet:

Atman is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth.  Brahman is the only reality and the universe is unreal there is ultimately no difference between Brahman and the universe because the universe is nothing but an illusion created out of Brahman.

When we talk about reality, we need to distinguish that which is real from that which is not real. This discriminative inquiry helps to realize what is real and what is unreal.:~Santthosh Kumaar
