How to destroy the mind?
You cannot destroy the mind because the universe in which you exist is the mind.
How to destroy the ego?
You cannot get rid of the ego because you are the ego. You and the world in which you exist cease to exist without the ego.
You, ego, and the world in which you exist are created out of a single clay. That single clay is consciousness. Knowledge of the single clay is Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.
Ignorance is the cause of experiencing the world in which you exist as a reality. Only through Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana, the ignorance vanishes.
Perfect understanding and realization of ‘what is what’ helps you to acquire Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.
The world in which you exist will not disappear, but the unreal nature of the world in which we exist is exposed by realizing that the world in which we exist is merely an illusion created out of the invisible Soul, the Self. The invisible Soul is present in the form of consciousness.
Thus, the invisible Soul alone is real, and the world in which we exist is a dualistic illusion is a superimposition of consciousness. Thus, the world in which we exist is nothing but consciousness.
The person within the dualistic illusion recognizes his body as the body, his ego as the ego, his experience of the world as the world; he is unaware that he is the product of ignorance.
Once the ignorance vanishes through the wisdom, then the body will not remain as a body, the ego will not remain as the ego, the world will not remain as the world, because everything merges into the substance from which they are created. That substance is the invisible Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. Consciousness is the ultimate reality or Brahman, or god in truth.
It is necessary to drop all accumulated knowledge that is blocking our realization. A perfect understanding and realization of ‘what is what’, leads to Advaitic awareness. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
