The objective world-the world of names and forms has no independent existence.+

If you want to know what this world is in which you exist in actuality then you must realize its illusory nature.

The objective world is the world of names and forms, which has no independent existence. The invisible Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness alone, has real existence. The world is only phenomenal.

Sage Sankara: ~ “VC- 63.~ Without causing the objective universe to vanish and without knowing the truth of the ‘Self’, how is one to achieve Liberation by the mere utterance of the word Brahman? — It would result merely in an effort of speech.

The world is subjected to creation and dissolution only from the standpoint of the ego.

The invisible Soul, the Self, cannot be subjected to creation and dissolution because the invisible Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness, is the formless, timeless, and spaceless existence. The invisible and unborn Soul is ever nondual.

Let you be clear on one thing. The world in which you exist is mere a dualistic illusion created out of the invisible Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. but in the reality the world in which you exist neither exists in the past nor exists now, nor going to exist in the future.

Whatever existed in the past, and whatever exists now, and whatever is going to exist in the future is merely an illusion created out of consciousness.:

Only when you realize the illusory nature of the world in which you exist then only it possible to realize your individual experience of birth, life, death, and the world is nothing but an illusion.

Without realizing the Self is not the ‘I’ but the invisible  Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness, Self-realization is an impossibility.

People say I AM THAT ~ I am God, I am Brahman. But when Brahman is, how can "I" remain? Only Brahman remains, not I, 

It is erroneous to use the word ‘I’ for the Self, because ‘I’ represents the form, time, and space, whereas the invisible Soul, the Self, is a formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.

If you change your ‘I know' attitude and indulge in deeper self-search, you will be able to discover the truth, which is hidden by the world in which you exist.

Katha Upanishad says ~ Fools dwelling in darkness, but thinking themselves wise and erudite, go round and round, by various tortuous paths, like the blind led by the blind. (Ch~ II-5 P-14)

Those who indulge in a perverted argument on their own standpoint and opinion are not seeking the truth, which is beyond form, time, and space. They just want to exhibit their accumulated knowledge,  accumulated from here and there. They think what they know is the ultimate truth.

They think whatever they propagate is the ultimate truth. The question never occurs to them, “Is what I know really the truth.

You have stuck up some Gurus and their teaching, you are like the stagnant water of the dirty pond. 

Till you are stuck on the idea that you get instant enlightenment from some enlightenment, then you are hallucinating.

That is why Swami Vivekananda said: ~ “You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, none can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher but the Soul.”

Sage Sankara says ~ VC-162- There is no liberation for a person of mere book knowledge, howsoever well-read in the philosophy of Vedanta, so long as one does not give up the false identification with the body, sense organs, etc., which are unreal.

People dwelling in ignorance, but thinking themselves wise and erudite, go round and round by various blind beliefs and tortuous paths and practices, like the blind led by the blind.

Come out of your prison of emotion. Be independent. Sit, think, reason, and reflect deeply.

You need to read or hear the words of wisdom of Advaita. Remember The Soul is the only reality and the world in which you exist is an illusion.

Reason and reflect upon the words of wisdom of Advaita constantly. Give up all further argumentation and realize the truth. This realization comes from being certain that the invisible  Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness alone, is real, and the world in which you exist is an illusion created out of consciousness. Thus, the invisible  Soul is the ultimate truth, or Brahman or God in truth.

That is why Sankara's declaration: ~ “Brahman is the truth. The world is unreal, everything is truly Brahman, and nothing else has any value.

Sage Sankara said: " Talk as much philosophy as you like, worship as many Gods as you please, observe ceremonies, and sing devotional hymns, but liberation will never come, even after a hundred aeons, without realizing the Oneness. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
