People are unaware that their own existence is a reality within the illusory universe or Maya.

The dualistic illusion is present in the form of the ‘I’. Without the ‘I’, the dualistic illusion ceases to exist.

The world in which we exist is a reality within the dualistic illusion. The dualistic illusion is created out of the invisible Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.

From the standpoint of the ego, the world in which we exist is a reality. From the standpoint of the invisible Soul, the world in which we exist is an illusion.

The only thing that is real in the world in which we exist is the invisible Soul, which is the cause of the world in which we exist rest is an illusion.

The invisible Soul itself is the ultimate truth, or Brahman or God in truth.

Whatever is real in the world in which we exist is God. All that is real in the world in which we exist is the invisible Soul, the Self.

Thus, by realizing the Self, which is the invisible Soul, we discover that the invisible Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness itself, is God, which is hidden by the ‘I’, which is the dualistic illusion or Maya.

Even Bhagavad Gita says: ~ ‘Brahmano hi pratisthaham’ ~ Brahman (God) is considered the all-pervading consciousness, which is the basis of all the animate and inanimate entities and material. (14.27).

When Bhagavad Gita says, God is considered the all-pervading consciousness which is the basis of all the animate and inanimate entities and material, then nothing has to be accepted as God other than consciousness.

Even the Brihadaranyaka Upanishad: ~ Brahman (God in truth) is present in the form of the Athma, and it is indeed Athma itself.

Even Rig Veda: ~ The Atman is the cause; Atman is the support of all that exists in this universe. May ye never turn away from the Atman, the Self. May ye never accept another God in place of the Atman nor worship other than the Atman?" (10:48, 5)

The world in which you exist is a dualistic illusion created out of the Self, which is not you but the invisible Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.

Whatever you have seen, known, believed, and experienced is within the universe, which is the dualistic illusion or Maya. Thus, your existence is bound to an illusion created out of consciousness, which is real and eternal.

Like an ornament made from gold is Gold, which is born out of consciousness, is consciousness. Like gold is a permanent thing, in ornaments made of gold, similarly, the mind, which is in the form of the universe, is born out of consciousness, is consciousness in its essence. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
