Theology is based on imagination; scholasticism upon logic.+

In the Brahma Sutras, Sage Sankara takes for granted and assumes that a world was created; He there mixes dogmatic theology with philosophy.

That God created the world is an absolute lie; nevertheless, you will find Sage Sankara (in his commentary on the Vedanta Sutras) clearly says this! He has to adapt his teachings to his audience, reserving the highest for philosophical minds.

The text of the Brahma Sutras is based on religion and dogmatism, but in the commentary, Sage Sankara cleverly introduced some philosophy. It is objected that many Upanishads are equally dogmatic because they also begin by assuming Brahman, but a few Upanishads do not, but prove Brahman at the end of a train of proof.

The causality and creation are for religious people only. Religion is only for those who are unable to understand the truth beyond form, time, and space. Religion is not final. It only gives satisfaction to the populace. Self-knowledge is for the whole of humanity to free them from experiencing birth, life, death, and the world as reality.

People of small intelligence follow religion and believe that the world was created by God. But how do they know that He did so? When a pot is created, one can see both the pot and its maker, but not in the case of the world.

Remember:~

Theology is based on imagination; scholasticism upon logic. The Advaitic truth can be obtained only through soulcentric reasoning and not by millions of karmas (actions) as the scriptures declare.

Since man, the world, and the universe are part and parcel of the illusion. Therefore, karma based on the false self within the false experience has no value.

Unfortunately, people agree that the body is not the self, but they refuse to accept the fact that the karma theory is based on the false self (ego), since they are still slaves of their inherited samskara or conditioning.

Karma (Action) will not dispel ignorance itself. Karma itself is based on ignorance. Only Self-Knowledge, or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana, will destroy ignorance.

The person who is based on the experience of birth, life, death, and the world is trying to find the meaning of life. There is no meaning or purpose of life because life is merely happening within the universe, which is a dualistic illusion for Maya.

The invisible Soul, the Self, has no karma because it is an ever-formless, timeless, and spaceless existence. The invisible Soul, the Self, has no sorrow. The invisible Soul, the Self, has no craving. The invisible Soul, the Self, is unchanging awareness.

The invisible Soul, the Self, is present in the form of consciousness, is everywhere and in everything, in all three states.

Thus, the Karma Theory, based on the physical entity, is based on birth, life, and death, which are part and parcel of the dualistic illusion.  :~Santthosh Kumaar
