All religions survive on myths. The rationalists would be on more solid ground if they attacked the myths of all religions.
Unfortunately, every religion is attacking the other, considering them to be a myth. The only way out is to unfold the mystery of existence.
Many paths and theories, and practices make one confused about which path and practice to use because each one of them claims to get the truth.
Religious truth is individual truth, and it is not universal truth because religion is based on individuality. Spiritual truth is the universal truth.
There is no scope for individuality in the realm of ultimate truth or Brahman. In the realm of ultimate truth or Brahman, the form, time, and space are one in essence.
The essence is invisible consciousness. Thus, consciousness alone is real and eternal, and all else is merely an illusion.
The scriptures give much advice and remedies, and each of them claims to be infallible. It is high time for a shift in his attention from all the theories and practices which are based on the physical self, and to indulge in self-analysis and discover the facts of his own existence.
Yoga Vasistha:~ "Teachers, interpretations of sacred texts, the force of religious merit--none of these lead to the realization of that Ultimate Truth which is revealed in the clear reflection of the heart, engendered from contact with the good."
The only way to unfold the mystery of existence is a deeper self-search that helps the seeker of the truth to discover and realize the true facts of his true existence through deeper self-search without the help of religion, glorifying Gods, scriptural studies, or yogic practice.
When the seeker realizes the facts of his true existence then realizes that the ‘I’ is not the Self, but the ‘I’ is the mind, which is present in the form of the universe.
The waking experience is a dualistic illusion. Thus, the seeker realizes that whatever he believed and experienced as reality on the base of the ‘I’ is an illusion. Since the formless non-dual substance of ‘I’ is Self. Thus, it is necessary to seek the truth.
When the seeker inquires into the nature of the mind, which is present in the form of the universe, then he realizes that ‘I’ is the mind. And the mind itself is the universe.
The truth realization is a gradual process. The seeker progresses gradually. The first requirement is a strong aspiration that gives rise to inquiry and reason. :~Santthosh Kumaar
