Ignorance is present in the form of the ‘I’. Ignorance appears and disappears.+

The invisible Soul, the Self, does not disappear; only the ‘I’ appears and disappears.

Ignorance is present in the form of the ‘I’. Ignorance appears and disappears.

Ignorance is a dualistic illusion. The dualistic illusion is present in the form of the mind.

The mind is present in the form of the form, time, and space; the form, time, and space are present in the form of the universe.

The universe appears as waking or dream (duality) and disappears as deep sleep (nonduality).

Without ignorance, the ‘I’ ceases to exist. If the ‘I’ ceases, then the mind, the form, time and space, the universe, and the waking cease together.

Ignorance is the cause of the forgetfulness of the reality hidden by the ‘I’.

Realize, ‘what is this ‘I’ supposed to be in actuality, and what is hidden by the ‘I’ will be revealed.

If you realize the Self is not the ‘I’ but the invisible Soul, then whatever is hidden by the ‘I’ will be revealed.

If there is no ignorance, then there is no ‘I’. If there is no ‘I’, then there is a bondage of the dualistic illusion.

If there is no dualistic illusion, there is the experience of birth, life, death, and world.

If there is no experience of birth, life, death, and the world, it is the fullness of consciousness.

The Fullness of consciousness means the Soul the eternal existence.

The seeker has to make sure what this ‘I’ is supposed to be. The seeker has to make sure of the unreal nature of the ‘I’, which comes and goes, to realize the truth, which is beyond form, time, and space.

That is why Bhagavad Gita: ~ The permanent is always there, only the transient ‘I’ comes and goes. (2.18)

The ‘I’ hides the invisible Soul, the Self, which is the cause of 'I'.

Bhagavad Gita: ~ “You must first see the ‘I’ as illusory before you see others as illusory. ~ CH.2 v.16

Remember, the ‘Self is not ‘I’ or ‘I AM’. The ‘I’ or ‘IAM is an object to the invisible Soul, which is an ‘I-LESS’ subject.

People think the ‘I’ without the body is the Self. The seeker has to understand the fact that ‘I’ is not the Self, but the witness of the ‘I’ is the true Self, which is eternal.

That is why Ashtavakra Gita 16:10:~ If you desire liberation, but you still say 'I', if you feel the Self is the ‘I’, you are not a wise man or a seeker. You are simply a man who suffers.

Realizing the invisible Soul is not the ‘I’ but the Soul is the Self, is Self–realization.

That is why the Bhagavad Gita says: ~ “Among thousands of men, scarcely one strives for perfection; and of those who strive and succeed, scarcely one knows the ‘Self’ in truth. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
