Gnani sees only unity in diversity, just like a goldsmith is estimates the gold in various items of jewelry sees only gold.
When one identifies the Self with the form, then only the form, time, and space are present. But when one transcends form, time, and space, the duality never remains as a reality.
All our doubts and questions arise because the invisible Soul, the Self, is in ignorance of its own Self. When the invisible Soul remains in its own awareness, then there is unity in diversity (oneness).
You, your body, and the world in which you exist are within the dualistic illusion, which is present in the form of the ‘I’.
Realize you are not you, your body is not the body, the world in which you exist is not the world, but they are all made of a single clay. That single clay is the invisible Soul, the Self, which is present in the form of consciousness.
Because of ignorance, you think you are an individual separate from the world and the world that existed before you, and you were born later on.
The ‘I’ is inborn ignorance is the cause of experiencing the world in which you exist as a reality, whereas the world in which you exist is the dualistic illusion.
By realizing your body and the world in which you exist are made of a single clay and that that single clay is the invisible Soul, the Self, which is present in the form of consciousness, you will realize your body and the world for what it really is in reality.
Thus, it is necessary to realize ‘what is what’, the world in which you exist is nothing but the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.
If you hold your body as the body and the world in which you exist as the world, you will not be able to grasp the Advaitic truth, which is hidden by the dualistic illusion (world).
All these experiences as a father, son, Guru, and pupil, along with the world in which they all exist, were one and the same consciousness appearing differently. All these distinctions disappear when one realizes the ultimate truth.
You will find your own way when you realize the fact that the ‘Self’ is not you but the invisible Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. Consciousness is God in truth.
Bhagavad Gita: ~ Brahmano hi pratisthaham ~ Brahman (God in truth) is considered the all-pervading consciousness, which is the basis of all the animate and inanimate entities and material. (14.27).
When the Bhagavad Gita says, God is considered the all-pervading consciousness, which is the basis of all the animate and inanimate entities and material, then nothing has to be accepted as Brahman (God) other than consciousness.
The invisible Soul, the Self, which is present in the form of consciousness, is the substance of the dualistic illusion because the dualistic illusion is created out of the consciousness.
The invisible Soul, the Self, is birthless and deathless because it is an ever-formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.
The dualistic illusion appears as ‘I’.
The ‘I’ is present in the form of the mind.
The mind is present in the form of the universe.
The universe appears as the waking.
The waking appears as ‘I’ (duality) disappears as ‘I- less (non-duality).
That is the invisible Soul; the 'Self' appears as the universe and the universe disappears as the invisible Soul. That which appears as ‘I’ is the dualistic illusion.
The invisible Soul is the Self. The Soul is present in the form of consciousness.
The invisible Soul is the witness consciousness that experiences the action, the actor, and the world of separate things. It is like a light that illuminates everything in a theatre, revealing the master of ceremonies, the guests, and the dancers with complete impartiality. Even when they all depart, the light shines to reveal their absence. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
