Nothing is destroyed when Advaitic wisdom dawns. Only ignorance disappears and the unreal nature of the universe is exposed.+

The greatest mistake is to think that a Gnani sees nothing. This blind reverence for Samadhi is as valuable as revering a man who has taken a dose of chloroform.
The Gnani sees the essential universal unity and the multiplicity of objects simultaneously. The person in deep sleep or Samadhi leaves out the objects and sees the essence; hence, he does not have the full Gnana.
One must be soul-centric to give up all knowledge based on egocentrism, which is the cause of ignorance.
One knows of the dream that the dream figures are also created out of the consciousness, not different from it. Similarly, when he knows that everything that exists in waking experience is consciousness and consciousness is the ultimate truth or Brahman, there is no need for the yogic control of the mind; the control presupposes a second thing, the duality. Hence, yoga is in the sphere of duality and is unnecessary to one who knows non-duality.
It is erroneous to believe the general impression is that the universe disappears to a Gnani, that he sees nothing. Only deluded persons will have such an impression?
Nothing is destroyed when Advaitic wisdom dawns. Only ignorance disappears, and the unreal nature of the universe is exposed.
A Gnani is fully aware that with a firm conviction that everything is consciousness in the midst of duality. Being aware of the reality in the midst of duality is called wisdom.
The universe or waking experience will not disappear. It is there always, but its unreal nature is exposed in the midst of duality or waking experience through wisdom?

If one thinks that its mere disappearance in yogic Samadhi is the ultimate truth or Brahman, then he would get it in deep sleep. Thus, the yogic Samadhi is not wisdom. :~Santthosh Kumaar

The Self is not you, but the Self is the invisible Soul, which is hidden by the illusory form, time, and space. If the Self is the invisible...
