Instead of finding fault first realize what the Self is in actuality.


Just by finding out to whom the thoughts come? Who is the knower? it is impossible to realize the truth, which is beyond form, time, and space.

To whom is the illusion? Who gets the thoughts, such a question arises only to those who think the Self is within the human heart.

Instead of finding fault first realize what the Self is in actuality. Amazingly an honest introspection will reveal that all fault lies with “you” and “your "own perceptions and attitudes. If there is an error in understanding what 'Self' is in actuality it is in “you". 

Correcting this and changing to a Soulcentric attitude will change your perception and then the Soul; the 'Self' will reveal its formless, timeless, and spaceless true nature.

Who am I? - is not Self-inquiry. The ‘Self-inquiry’ is finding out the ‘Self’ which is hidden by the ‘I’. The ‘I’ itself is ignorance. Ignorance is the cause of the dualistic illusion or Maya or the universe.

By inquiring ‘Who am I?’- the ignorance will not vanish. Without getting rid of ignorance, the Advaitic wisdom will not dawn. Without the Advaitic wisdom, it is not possible to realize the truth, which is hidden by the dualistic illusion.

A perfect understanding of ‘what is what' is is very much necessary to cross the threshold of the dualistic illusion. 

Remember:~

The path of wisdom attracts only those who are in search of truth and they appreciate it greatly. The ignorant are not spiritually mature enough to receive Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.

The ignorant indulge in argument provocation and personal attack, which hinder their own realization of the ultimate truth or Brahman. 

Swami Vivekananda: ~ “The wicked are always looking for defects. Flies come and seek for the ulcer, and bees come only for the honey in the flower. Do not follow the way of the fly, but that of the bee.

Everyone has not got the capacity to know the Truth, very few have: but some among these few are so sharp that they have only to hear it explained by proper guidance when they grasp it at once. They have only to stabilize their illumination. 

You, yourself, must do the work of realizing Truth by using your own judgment and reason. Nobody else, no guru, can do it for you.

There is nothing to realize other than realizing the universe in which we exist is created out of single stuff. That single stuff is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. Consciousness is real and eternal. 

All my blogs and postings are the verified truth. As one goes on reading, all his doubts and confusion will start clearing. It takes time to be receptive to Self-Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana because it is Soulcentric knowledge, whereas all accumulated knowledge is egocentric. 

I am highlighting all the obstacles in the inner journey and how to overcome these obstacles. All accumulated knowledge is of no use in the path of wisdom.
