Advaitic wisdom is brighter, greater, which unfolds the mystery of the universe contains the whole of humanity.+

India is an ancient land where wisdom made its home. India, whose soil has been trodden by the feet of the greatest Sages of truth like Bhagavan Buddha, Sage Sankara, and Sage Goudpada.

India is the fountainhead of the Advaitic wisdom. Advaitic wisdom is brighter, greater, which unfolds the mystery of the universe contains the whole of humanity.

The goal of the truth-seeker is to acquire Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana. Self-knowledge, or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana, is inherent in every seeker of truth. Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana does not come from outside; it is hidden within the world in which we exist.

Buddha is not physical. Buddha is the state that is empty of the illusory division of form, time, and space. Buddha is the fullness of consciousness.

Buddhism has nothing to do with Buddha because Buddhism is physical. Buddhism is based on form, time, and space, whereas Buddha is a formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.

From a Nondualistic perspective, nothingness or emptiness is the real nature of the invisible Soul, the Self.

The invisible Soul, the Self, is identified as nothingness or emptiness because it is a formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.

Everything is nothingness. Nothingness is everything, and everything is nothingness. Nothingness is nonduality, and everything is duality. Nothingness is the real nature of the invisible Soul, the Self, and everything else is the unreal nature of the invisible Soul.

Nothingness is eternal because there is no second thing that exists other than nothingness, which is the nature of the invisible and unborn Soul.

The Dalai Lama said:~ Buddhism need not be the best religion, though it is most scientific and religion and inquisitive. But Buddhism has no answer to certain questions like the existence of Atama (Soul) and rebirth. The Dalai lama said that as an individual, he believes in rebirth as he had come across a few cases of rebirth. Modern science, the Dalai Lama hoped, would unearth the mystery behind the rebirth. (In DH –dec-212009-Gulbarga).

The Buddhists are unaware that the invisible Soul is Self-evident. It is not established by extraneous proofs. It is not possible to deny the invisible Soul because it is the very essence of the one who denies it.

The invisible Soul is the basis of all kinds of knowledge, presuppositions, and proofs. The invisible Soul is everything. Thus, the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness, is the ultimate truth or Brahman.

Buddhists believe in emptiness, but they are unaware that emptiness is the nature of the invisible Soul.

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 theater, 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.

Bhagavan Buddha gave nondualistic wisdom, whereas Buddhism has many teachings. Bhagavan Buddha’s wisdom was lost because it was buried under the diverse teachings of Buddhism.

Buddhism has not proved the truth of Nonduality, whereas Buddha pointed out the unreality of the world, and he told people they were foolish to cling to it. But he stopped there. He came nearest to Advaita in speech, but not to Advaita fully.

Buddhism does not prove the truth of nonduality because they do not believe in the existence of the Soul. Without the existence of the Soul, talking of nonduality is like building a castle in the air.

Sage Sankara disagrees with Buddhists who say there is nothing - a nonentity. Sage Sankara believes there is some reality, even though things are not what they appear to be. If one knows the truth, they will know what to do to find inspiration for action. The seeker of truth‘s subject is to know what it is that is Real.

Buddhism says: all things are illusory and nothing exists. However, Advaita avers that it is not so. It says that the universe, of course, is illusory, but there is Brahman (consciousness) that exists, forming the very substratum of all things (illusion or universe).

Advaitic Sages disagree with Buddhists only on the Ultimate question, but they agree with their idealism fully.

Even when you say "I am not," you are thinking. Hence, every thought means positing some existence. To exist is to be thought of; hence our criticism of Sunyavada, which says there is nothing. In saying "There is nothing," they are unconsciously positing something. The thought of nothing is existence itself. Hence, only by refraining from thought can they state their case. The thought itself is an object. The negation of existence is a thought.

The presence of an object means duality. Hence, this proves that the Sunyavadins never understood non-duality, i.e., Brahman.

Buddhism agrees in thinking that the ego sees itself; they do not admit there is anything that sees the ego: they say there is no proof that any witness exists. When thoughts are there, thoughts become conscious of them. Skandhas, which appear and disappear, are objects that only Buddhists are aware of as the subject.

Only when we independently search for the truth without religion and its doctrine will we be able to realize the truth beyond form, time, and space.

Sage Sankara and Bhagavan Buddha have given the world a common message. The essence of both the Sages is: ~

The entire world which one perceives is illusionary; it is just an appearance of unreality, and there is only one indeterminate and attributeless truth at the root of this world".

Sage Sankara and Sage Goudpada declared nondualistic truth centuries ago. The seeker has to reach the destination with scientific (rational investigation, not through punditry and intellectuality.

The seeker must do his homework and verify the validity of all the claims, rather than blindly believe what others expound as knowledge, till the uncontradicted truth is obtained.

The seeker must have the courage of Bhagavan Buddha to accept the truth and reject the untruth. Since Bhagavan Buddha rejected religion, the idea of God, and scriptures, therefore, it is evident that he has gone through every aspect and verified and found them to be inadequate and useless for the pursuit of truth.

That is why Buddha said: ~ “Believe nothing because a wise man said it, Believe nothing because it is generally held. Believe nothing because it is written. Believe nothing because it is said to be divine. Believe nothing because someone else said it. But believe only what you yourself judge to be true.'

Buddha: - There are only two mistakes one can make along the road to truth: not going all the way... and not starting.

One has to mentally reach the final conclusion, then only the conviction becomes firm. Without firm conviction, wisdom will not dawn. Therefore, there is a need to know consciousness is real, all else is a myth, which Sage Sankara declared as the world is a myth, Brahman alone is real.

Sage Sankara says Atman is Brahman, and everything that is Brahman is a scientific declaration, not religious or yogic. Sage Sankara and Sage Goudpada are more scientific than anyone else in the world. Since the real Advaitic essence is hidden, it cannot be obtained without the inner (mental) journey.

Sage Goudpada says that: - The merciful Veda teaches karma and Upasana to people of lower and middling intellect, while Jnana is taught to those of higher intellect.

Gnana here is knowledge, uncontradictable truth, or scientific truth. Thus, their scientific truth of the whole, not the part, was declared by Sage Sankara many centuries ago and taught only to those of higher intellect. Thus, karma and Upasana, yoga, and orthodoxy have to be bifurcated to realize the ultimate truth or Brahman.

Advaitic Wisdom is for those who are capable of inquiring into their own existence to know and realize the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth. : ~Santthosh Kumaar

Sage Sankara says:~ How can the talk of diversity, dvaita, apply to the Supreme Reality, which is one and homogeneous, Advaita.+

Existence is nondual. Nonduality cannot be described by means of words, for all uses of language fail to express it. Nonduality is sought to be indicated by the negation of duality (all attributes and characteristics).

Sage Sankara says:~ How can the talk of diversity, dvaita, apply to the Supreme Reality, which is one and homogeneous, Advaita? Who has ever observed diversity, dvaita, in the unmixed bliss of the state of profound sleep?

Advaitic Gnana or nondual wisdom is for those who are capable of inquiring into their own existence to know and realize the ultimate truth or Brahman.

The Advaitic wisdom is not suited for the unsettled mind, which sticks to religion, yoga, and all non-Vedic worship and activities. There is no use in convincing such a mindset. Everyone is free to move on their chosen path.

The path of wisdom is divided into three parts:~

First: hearing the truth--that the consciousness is the only reality and that the universe, along with you, is merely an illusion or Maya.

Second: reasoning upon the words of wisdom of Sage Sankara from all points of view.

Third: giving up all further argumentation and realizing the truth. This realization comes from being certain that consciousness is the ultimate truth or Brahman, or God in truth.

You are being conditioned by the religious myth, which has made you a non-thinker. Come out of the religious myth by realizing God in truth.

Realizing everything as Consciousness is God realization because the Rig Veda says Consciousness is God in truth.

If one is fully aware of the fact that the Self is not formed but the Self is formless, then all three states will naturally become unreal.

If one makes no discriminations, the thousands of things are as they are, of a single stuff. To understand the mystery of this single stuff is to be released from all entanglements.

When all things are seen equally, the timeless Self-stuff is reached. No comparisons or analogies are possible in this causeless, relation-less state, which is an illusion-less existence.

The observer and the observed (three states) are one in essence. Until we can view and judge from the standpoint of the observer, we will not become aware that the observer and observed (three states) are one in essence. The essence is consciousness. Thus, consciousness is the ultimate truth or Brahman.

If the Advaita is bifurcated from all the religious add-ons, it becomes scientific, then it becomes very easy to understand and assimilate.

All these scientific inventions are nearer to the truth, but they are not the truth in themselves.

Bhagavan Buddha, Sage Sankara, and Sage Goudpada have declared non-dual truth centuries back, but one has to reach the destination with scientific[rational] investigation, not through punditry. Until one mentally reaches the conclusion, the conviction will not arise.

Without the firm conviction, the wisdom will not dawn. Therefore, there is a need to know consciousness is real, all else is myth, which Sage Sankara declared as the world is myth, Brahman alone is real.

Sage Sankara says Atman is Brahman, and everything that is Brahman is a scientific declaration, not religious or yogic.

Sage Sankara and Goudpada are more scientific than anyone else in the world. Since the real Advaitic essence is hidden, it cannot be obtained without the inner (mental) journey.

Sage Gaudapada says that:- The merciful Veda teaches karma and Upaasana to people of lower and middling intellect, while Jnana is taught to those of higher intellect.

Gnana here is knowledge, uncontradictable truth, or scientific truth. Thus, their scientific truth of the whole not part was declared by Sage Sankara 1400 years back and taught only to those of higher intellect. Thus, karma and upasana[religion and yoga], which are meant for the masses, have to be bifurcated from Advaita to reach the ultimate end.

Gnana or non-dual Wisdom is for those who are capable of inquiring into their own existence to know and realize the ultimate truth or Brahman.

When one goes into the annals of history, it looks like the true Advaita expounded by Sage Sankara and his param guru, Sage Goudpada, was lost or mutilated by the orthodox cult, because their preaching is based on nonduality, and practices are based on duality.

Sage Sankara says in the Brahma Sutras that Brahman is the cause of the world, whereas in Manduka Upanisad, he denies it. This is because he says that at the lower stage of understanding, the former teaching must be given, for people will get frightened as they cannot understand how the world can be without a cause, but to those in a higher stage, the truth of non-causality can be revealed.

Sage Sankara himself has warned us not to use ambiguous words, and to practice semantic analysis in his book "Definition of one's own Self. (" Page 199, v.24 of "Sankara's Selected Works)

Brahman is considered the all-pervading consciousness, which is the basis of all the animate and inanimate entities and material. (brahmano hi pratisthaham, Bhagavad Gita 14.27)

Sage, Sankara’s notion of Maya, the cosmic illusion (mind or matter), which must be transcended to realize the truth of Brahman, which means ultimate truth.

If Brahman is considered the all-pervading consciousness, then it is necessary to realize consciousness as self, which pervades all the three states, to realize the fact that there is no second thing exists other than consciousness. Thus, consciousness (Atman) is the ultimate truth (Brahman).

The Sruti itself says: "This Atma is not to be attained by a study of the Vedas. (Katha Upanishad I, 2, 23.)

It means the seeker has to investigate on their own and realize the ultimate truth.

Ultimate Truth can be known if the seeker keeps up the pursuit to the very end, whereas some assert that ultimate truth cannot be known.

When the Vedas and Upanishads declare that Consciousness or Atman is actually nothing but Brahman, then why go round and round, by various tortuous paths, like the blind led by the blind?

One has to realize that the mind is in the form of the universe. Trace the source of the mind and realize that the source is consciousness. The mind rises from consciousness as waking or dream and subsides as deep sleep.

All are searching for truth within the illusion, not being aware that the illusion is created out of a single stuff, which is consciousness, because everyone thinks their body and their experience of the universe are not consciousness, and consciousness is limited to their body.

Thus, searching the truth in illusion with the illusory self, within the illusory experience, has to be an illusion. The illusion is created, sustained, and finally dissolved as consciousness. Consciousness is the material of the illusion. Since there is no second thing other than consciousness, consciousness itself is God or Brahman. This conviction derives only through deeper inquiry, analysis, and reasoning.

Many People want to take as little trouble as possible and gain as much as possible. They disdain the hard labour of thinking needed in pursuit of truth and hope to get truth by doing nothing, i.e., merely believing or refraining from thought in yoga.

Conversion can occur only in the sphere of religion, never in the pursuit of truth. When one knows the non-dual truth, one becomes free from the sphere of imagination.

If one’s reason is not sharp enough, then only religion and yoga can satisfy him. The seeker of truth examines both scientific and religious doctrines and discoveries to evaluate them.::~Santthosh Kumaar

The orthodox mass argues that any and all problems with the world can be attributed to the groups and ideas that they most dislike. +

The religious orthodox want to wage war against modernity: secularism, science, reproductive rights, and the Enlightenment generally.

The orthodox mass argues that any and all problems with the world can be attributed to the groups and ideas that they most dislike.

One of the worst aspects of this attitude is how some religions latch on to any tragedy to promote their theocratic vision. Every religion argues that only their religion and their God can cure whatever ails this world.

History speaks that man has made it challenging to understand why he has experienced and witnessed such an array of human behavior.

With constant introspection and the continued judgments of right and wrong, good and bad, just and unjust, it has been a constant challenge to find and understand the truth behind his physical existence.

This subject is super sensitive, yet if one is to continue in their pursuit of truth, then there is a need for perfect understanding and assimilation.

There is a need to stop these wars and violence, which are going on in the name of religion and God, by knowing and understanding, and realizing the universal truth, which holds the whole universe in which humanity exists. The universal truth alone is God; all else is merely an illusion.

In the Vedas, God has been described as:~

Sakshi (Witness)

Chetan (conscious)

Nirguna (Without form and properties)

Nitya (eternal)

Shuddha (pure)

Buddha (omniscient)

Mukta (unattached).

So, it clearly indicates that God is formless; thus, there is no scope for a form-based God. The religion and its conceptual Gods, and its theories of karma, heaven, hell, papa, Punya, rebirth, and reincarnation are based on the false self, within the false experience. Therefore, they are meant for lower mindsets; they are of no use for those who are seeking higher truth, as indicated in the scriptures.

There are many schools of thought in Hinduism. These schools claim that they are based on the Vedas. These schools of thought propagate non-Vedic beliefs barred by the Vedas. Therefore, these add-ons have to be bifurcated from the original Vedic Religion to get the pure Vedic essence: ~Santthosh Kumaar

Sage Sankara:~ "The ignorant see the body of a knower of Brahman(Gnani) and identify him with it.+

A Gnani sees the nondual reality hidden by ignorance as it is in the midst of diversity (the universe).

Sage Sankara himself said: ~ A Gnani bears no outward mark of a holy man."

Select Works of Sankara" also his commentary on Brihad: ~ “Though I wear these robes of a Sanyasin, it is only for the sake of bread."

So he wore a Guru's robe only for the sake of the ignorant. So he was identified as Guru with parampara by religious people. For the truth seekers, Sage Sankara is a Brahma Gnani.

Thus, it proves that the religious gurus and yogis are not Gnanis because they identified themselves as holy people.

It proves that Sage Sankara meant, taking sanyasa and wearing the religious robes to earn bread. Sanyasa is not a qualification to acquire Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.

Exploring if an outside observer can, in all cases, determine if a person is Enlightened or not, the venerated Sage Sankara, in his work The Crest-Jewel of Discrimination (1) or as it is sometimes known, Viveka Chudamani (2), states that the Knower of the Atman (i.e., a Gnani) "bears no outward mark of a holy man" (Stanza 539).

Sage Sankara writes (on a Gnani): - “Sometimes he appears to be a Fool, sometimes a wise man. Sometimes he seems splendid as a king, sometimes feeble-minded. Sometimes he is calm and silent. Sometimes he draws men to him. Sometimes people honor him greatly, sometimes they insult him. Sometimes they ignore him.

Sage Sankara:~ "The ignorant see the body of a knower of Brahman(Gnani) and identify him with it. Actually, the Soul, the Self, is free from the body and every other kind of bondage. To the Self, the body is merely a shadow."

Manduka Upanishads: ~ It is difficult to find out who is a Gnani because he bears no external mark. Neither nudity nor the yellow robe has anything to do with him.

A Gnani cannot have the idea of renouncing the world or giving up something of the practical world, because that would connote the idea of duality. Duality is merely an illusion from the ultimate standpoint. Knowing no second thing at all, there remains nothing to be given up.

Self-knowledge is the truest knowledge, not the absence of duality. Self-knowledge cannot destroy the world, but it eliminates ignorance and exposes the unreal nature of the mind or universe.

A Gnani is the one who has realized that the universe in which he exists is nothing but consciousness. Self-awareness is unique. It cannot be experienced because it is prior to any experience. It is possible only by the realization of the knowledge of the Infinite."

A Gnani sees only unity in diversity, just like a goldsmith estimating 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 reality.  : ~ Santthosh Kumaar

Bhagavad Gita - Cut all such conflicting dualities by the sword of knowledge.+

Whatever takes form as the duality is false. Only the nondual consciousness endures. When you understand the truth, beyond form, time, and space, the duality will never be a reality again. For the consciousness is infinite, within and without, like a mirror, and the image in a mirror. Consciousness is everywhere, filling all things and flowing through the dualistic illusion forever.

Consciousness is like a lamp that lights up a theater and reveals both a dancer and a stage.

Ignorance is the cause of experiencing the world as a reality. The world in which we exist is a dualistic illusion. The ‘Self' is hidden within the dualistic illusion, and it is without the dualistic illusion.

The mystic must become a constant slave to some line of "thought," or rather imagination, and then he will really see visions confirming his imagination.

The mystic who sees God in vision has seen Him during the waking state. The waking experience itself is an illusion. Thus, whatever is seen within the illusion is bound to be an illusion. Thus, the mystic must realize his existence is a reality within the illusion.

Whatever belief of God one is familiar with through their inherited conditioning or samskara that he will see in their visions. When the man is the false Self within the false experience, then whatever he believes is bound to be a falsehood.

Bhagavad Gita: ~ Brahmano hi pratisthaham ~ Brahman (God) 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 God other than consciousness.

Bhagavad Gita 2:46:~ "A man of true knowledge who has attained enlightenment has the same use for all the scriptures as one has for a small reservoir of water in a place flooded on all sides."

The rituals mentioned in the karmakanda of the Vedas are sought to be negated in the jnanakanda, which is also part of the same scripture. While the karmakanda enjoins upon you the worship of various deities and lays down rules for the same, the jnanakanda, constituted by the Upanishads, ridicules the worshipper of deities as a dim-witted person no better than a beast.

This seems strange, the latter part of the Vedas contradicting the former part. The first part deals with karma, while the second or concluding part is all about jnana. Owing to this difference, people have gone so far as to divide our scripture into two sections: the Vedas (that is, the first part) to mean the karmakanda and the Upanishads (Vedanta) to mean the jnanakanda.

God is the Soul, the innermost Self. The Soul is present in the form of consciousness. God is not within you, but you and your experience of the world are within God. Self-realization is God realization because the Soul, the Self itself, is God. When you and your experience of the world disappear, then God alone prevails as a formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.

Lord Krishna says Ch ~V: ~ “Those who know the Self in truth." The last two words (tattvataha) are usually ignored by pundits, but they make all the difference between the ordinary concept of God and the truth about God.

The dualistic worship of "God” is only for the ignorant populace. The God in truth is only Atman, the innermost “Self’. In reality, there is no duality, no differentiation. Only Atman exists.

It is for every seeker who is seeking truth must first know what God is supposed to be in actuality according to the Vedas and Upanishads, and reject all non-Vedic Gods, to realize the Atman is the real God.

Bhagavad Gita Chapter:~ “All those whose intelligence has been stolen by material desires, they worship many Gods. (7- Verse -20)

Brihadaranyaka Upanishad: ~ Brahman (God in truth) is the form of the Athma, and it is indeed Athma itself.

Thus, it refers to a formless and attributeless God, which is the Atman (Soul), the Self within the false experience.

Thus, it indicates clearly that all the Gods with form and attributes are mere imagination based on the false ‘Self’. Thus, Atman or the Soul, the Self, is God in truth.

The Brihadaranyaka Upanishad says:~ "He who worships the deities as entities entirely separate from him does not know the truth. For the Gods, he is like a pasu (beast)". (1. 4. 10)

A great majority of Hindus are not in contact with their religious history; therefore, they believe their inherited blind beliefs to be as ultimate truth.

The Vedas confirm God is Atman (Spirit), the Self.

Rig Veda: ~ The Atman is the cause; Atman is the support of all that exists in this universe. May ye never turn away from the Atman, the Self. May ye never accept another God in place of the Atman nor worship other than the Atman?" (10:48, 5)

Rig-Veda 1-164-46 and Y.V 32-1 clearly mention that God is “One”.

Rig Veda declares God is ‘ONE’ and God is Atman, then why believe and worship in place of the real God?

Yajurveda – Chapter- 32:~ God Supreme or Supreme Spirit has no ‘Pratima’ (idol) or material shape. God cannot be seen directly by anyone. God pervades all beings and all directions.

Thus, Idolatry does not find any support from the Vedas.

No dualities, no differentiation. Only Atman exists. Let us see in the words of Krishna:~

Bhagavad Gita: 4: 22:~ ".....who has gone beyond the conflicting dualities like the good (happiness) and bad (sorrow)....."

Bhagavad Gita: 4: 42:~ ".....cut all such conflicting dualities (doubts) by the sword (weapon) of knowledge. ....."

Bhagavad Gita: 5: 18:~ “The learned men (who have come out of delusions (Māyā), got rid of Avidya) see no differentiation have equal vision for a revered Brahmin, a cow, an elephant, a dog, and a cāndāla (outcaste, rogue, mleccha, demonic person, etc)"

Bhagavad Gita: 5: 19:~ "Those who have achieved the true knowledge, i.e., the 'Self-Knowledge' or the 'knowledge of Atman' and see no difference, are free from conflicting dualities and have merged in Brahman"

Bhagavad Gita: 5: 20:~ "One who does not get excited out of happiness on getting good and does not get depressed on getting bad is situated in Brahman, i.e., is merged in Brahman"

Bhagavad Gita: 6: 9:~ "The one who has equal vision for a Selfless do-gooder, a friend, a foe, an unbiased, a well-wisher, a depressed and jealous man, relatives, a righteous and a sinner is the best (as he sees no duality and differentiation but sees everything as Ātman)"

Bhagavad Gita: 6: 32:~ “.....As one seeks and treats oneself with equal vision, the same way one who has equal vision for good and evil, for everybody is the best of all"

Bhagavad Gita: 6: 8:~ "For whom soil, a pebble, and gold are alike, he is merged in Brahman"

Bhagavad Gita: 7: 27:~ ".....People are getting entangled in the primordial ignorance (Avidya) of the conflicting dualities like good and evil, happiness and sorrow caused due to attachments, desires, and hatred....."

Bhagavad Gita: 6: 28:~ “.....Who have cut off conflicting dualities (like good and evil) is determinedly in my service. ...."

Bhagavad Gita: 7: 19:~ "Such a man who has attained true knowledge, the knowledge of Self, the knowledge of Atman, in the last birth in the series of many births worships Me as~ Atman alone exists~ everything is Atman, there exists nothing except Atman. Such a man is extremely rare: ~Santthosh Kumaar

The invisible Soul is the cause of the illusory universe in which we exist, and it itself is uncaused.+

The invisible and unborn Soul is the Self. The Soul is present in the form of consciousness.

The invisible Soul is the cause of the illusory universe in which we exist, and it itself is uncaused.

Many souls theory is a religious theory based on the false self (ego) within the false world. When the world in which we exist is created out of a single clay and that single clay is the invisible Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness, the question of many souls does not arise. There is one and only Soul, which is the cause of the universe.

You are not the Self because you are mortal. You are mortal because you are bound by the experience of birth, life, death, and the world.

The Self is the invisible and unborn Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness, and is immortal because it is an ever-formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.

The one that is in ignorance is the invisible Soul; the one that has to wake up from the sleep of ignorance is the invisible Soul, the Self.

The universe in which you exist is the product of ignorance. When ignorance vanishes, the universe in which you exist is merely an illusion created out of the consciousness.

Without the illusion, the invisible Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness alone, will prevail as the ultimate reality or Brahman or God in truth. Thus, the invisible Soul is the ultimate truth or Brahman.

Self-realization is necessary to realize ‘what is truth and ‘what is the untruth.

The Many Souls theory is based on the false self and false experience(world). When the whole universe is created out of a single stuff, which is the Soul, then whatever the universe contains is also consciousness. Thus, the Soul is one, and in ignorance, the diversity (world) appears as a reality.

Sage Sankara asks his opponents ~ "How do you know there are separate individual Souls? Have you seen the Soul of a Man? You can only say that you have seen different bodies. To say more is to misuse language. Therefore, I call you liars unless you give proof, which is impossible.

Rig Veda: ~ The Atman is the cause; Atman is the support of all that exists in this universe.

So, it proves the invisible Soul is not an individual, but it is the support of all that exists in this universe.

The invisible Soul is not limited to an individual. The individuals are many, but the invisible Soul is one. The individual exists within the illusory universe. The invisible Soul is the cause of the illusory universe, and it itself is uncaused.

The invisible Soul is not within the human body. The universe is created out of a single stuff. That single stuff is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.

Thus, whatever universe contains is bound to be the invisible Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.

In the dream world, the dream people appeared together and disappeared together. Similarly, the waking world and waking people appeared together and disappear together.

Thus, the dream is created out of a single piece of stuff, and that stuff is the invisible Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. In the same way, the waking experience is also created out of a single stuff. And that single stuff is the consciousness.

The invisible Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness, is the cause of the three states, and it itself is uncaused. The many soul theories are religious and yogic fables based on the false self (ego) and false experience (waking).

Knowledge of the single stuff is Self-knowledge of Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.

Like an ornament made from gold is Gold, that which is born out of consciousness is consciousness. Like gold is a permanent thing, in ornaments made of gold, similarly, the mind, which is in the form of the universe, is born out of consciousness, is consciousness in its essence.

Deeper self-search reveals the fact that you are not the Self, the world in which you exist is the invisible Soul, which is present in the form of the consciousness, but the consciousness is specifically not an entity or identity or a thing within the world in which you exist. But it is the cause of the world in which you exist, and it itself is uncaused.

The invisible Soul is hidden by the illusory universe in which you exist. The nature of the invisible Soul is a formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.

Thus, it is necessary to realize that the world in which you exist is created out of a single stuff, which is consciousness. Consciousness is the ultimate truth, or Brahman or God in truth.

Thus, God in truth alone is real; the world in which you exist is merely an illusion created out of consciousness.

It takes time for the seeker to gain the perfect understanding of ‘what is truth’ and ’what is untruth’. It takes time for the invisible Soul, the Self, to wake up from the sleep of ignorance, and it takes time for one to realize the truth, which is beyond form, time, and space.: ~Santthosh Kumaar
