Only through Self-Knowledge ignorance vanishes, no other way.+

Sage Goudapad:~ Duality is for the unwise, non-duality and undifferentiated reality is for the wise and difficult to grasp.

Only through Self-Knowledge, ignorance vanishes; no other way. To get rid of ignorance is necessary to realize the Self is not you, but the Self is the invisible and unborn Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.

Without Self-knowledge knowledge it is impossible to realize God in truth.

To get rid of ignorance is necessary to realize that the Self is not you, but the Self is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.

If you hold the Self within your physical body, then the ignorance will be more and more deeply rooted.

You will always remain in a state of ignorance until you realize the Self is not you, but the Self is the invisible Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.

As the seeker's understanding of ‘what is what ‘grows, gradually the seeker gets a glimpse of truth.

Whatever is based on you is an illusion, and whatever is based on the Soul, the Self, is real and eternal.

Thus, the seeker of truth must make sure that you are not the Self but the Self is the invisible Soul, to acquire Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.

The seeker has to have an inner urge to know the truth,

seriousness, patience, and humility to reach the ultimate end of understanding.

A Gnani will not indulge in the argument; he keeps a distance from such a mindset.

The Truth is one.

The Soul is one.

The Self is one.

Brahman is one.

God is one.

Truth, Soul, Self, Brahman, and Gods are one and the Same.

Mentally hold on to the invisible Soul and drop everything. Do not hold on to the ‘I’, you will be lost in the dualistic illusion if you hold on to the ‘I’ because the ‘I’ itself is ignorance.

As long as you believe the Self is the ‘I’, then the illusory experience of birth, life, death, and the world as a reality. But if you realize the Self is not you, but the Self is the invisible Sou, then the invisible Soul, the Self, becomes free from the cage of ignorance.

Remember this:

The world in which you exist is merely an illusion created out of the invisible Soul, the Self.

The Soul is present in the form of consciousness. Thus, the illusory world in which you exist is nothing but consciousness.

Hold on to consciousness mentally and drop the illusion, and rest in consciousness. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
