The destruction of ignorance exposes the unreal nature of the world in which he exists.+


The seeker should inquire into the nature of the world which confronts him first, then into the individual, and finally, into the invisible Soul, the Self.
The seeker should not go on wasting his time imagining things. He should search for truth which means he must examine what is before him.
Yoga and religion omit this important preliminary inquiry into the world and hence never reach the truth, which is beyond form, time, and space.
It does not mean the world should disappear in Samadhi, but that its true nature should be determined. If the yogis really got emancipation in Samadhi, then ordinary men would also get it in deep sleep!
The seeker must always be engaged in an inquiry into the nature of this world in which he exists and the invisible Soul.
When the notions of the reality of the world in which he exists are destroyed, what remains is the invisible Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.
The destruction of ignorance exposes the unreal nature of the world in which he exists. It does not mean that the world disappears, but there should arise a determination of their unreal nature: for if that were not the case, people may find emancipation without efforts on their part as during dreamless sleep, and fainting (when precepts altogether disappear).
If a person cannot undertake the study into the nature of the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness through Soulcentric reasoning. The seeker must be constantly engaged in reflecting on the nature of the Soul.

The Yogi who moves unseeing through this world is not better than mentally blind; it is not the imperceptions of the world that are needed, but the intellectual realization that its substratum is an idea.  :~Santthosh Kumaar
