What happens to consciousness when the form dies?+

R W:~ Can you explain what happens to consciousness when the form dies?

Santthosh Kumaar:~ What happens in deep sleep, the same thing happens when the illusion of the world dies. Consciousness remains in its own awareness without the illusory form, time, and space.

For a Gnani, the world is merely an illusion. He sees the world in which he exists as an object; thus, for a Gnani, the world in which birth, life, and death happen is a passing show.

The commoner thinks he is an individual separate from the world, and the world existed prior to him, and he was born in it. Until this conviction is there, the world in which he exists prevails as a reality. Therefore, there is a need to realize that the one who is born, lives, and dies in this world is not the Self.

The Self is a birthless and deathless Soul because it is an ever-formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.

From the ultimate standpoint, nothing is ever born, nothing dies, and one that is born in ignorance. Ignorance is present in the form of the ‘I’. The ‘I’ is the whole universe. The universe is the dualistic illusion or Maya.

The birth is the birth of ignorance. Physical Life is a life of ignorance. Death is the death of ignorance. Whatever exists without ignorance is the ultimate reality or Brahman, or God in truth. :: ~ Santthosh Kumaar

By breathing up and down or by holding the breath the ignorance will not vanish.+

If one could find the truth by just sitting and breathing up and down, it would have been so easy to find the truth. By breathing up and down or by holding the breath, the ignorance will not vanish.

What is the use of doing Kriya yoga when the Self is not the body, but the Self is the invisible Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness? The invisible Soul does not breathe because it is the ever-formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.

All breath-based yogic techniques will not help you get rid of ignorance. All yogic techniques are good only for keeping mental and physical health, nothing more.

The novice seekers must understand that yoga is all right in its place and that it is good at the beginning of the pursuit of truth, but when yoga is made an end in itself and not a means to acquire the Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.

Yoga and meditation are not useless; they are useful to bring the restless ego under control. Yoga and meditation are not final. Indulging in yoga and meditation will not lead to the ultimate end of understanding. Yoga cannot remove ignorance. It is only a step. It removes obstructions.

Sage Sankara definitely says that yoga is not the means of liberation (page 132-133 of his commentary on the Brihadaranyakopanishad).

Ashtavakra says, "This is your bondage, that you practice Samadhi or meditation.”

Remaining thoughtless in the waking experience is yogic Samadhi. Yogic Samadhi is not the Advaitic wisdom

Brih Upanishad: page 32. "Yoga does not yield truth or liberation."

One who is in Samadhi will not know that this universe is the consciousness; therefore, yoga is not the means to Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.

In Samadhi, the yogi knows nothing, sees no universe; so if there is nothing but blankness. The blankness is not the Advaitic wisdom.

The yogi does not know the nature of the universe. If the universe is not seen in the Samadhi, then there is no need to use the words Atman and Brahman. The yogi is unaware of the truth, which is beyond form, time, and space.

By shutting his eyes in Samadhi, the yogi does not know the universe that confronts him. Hence, the universe can't be known as the Soul or the consciousness through yoga.

One is in a non-dual condition in deep sleep or Samadhi, one without a second, true, but he did not know it at the time. He says only in the waking experience afterward. Hence, there must be an inquiry so that you find non-duality whilst you are awake, so that you can see nonduality at the time, not afterward. Hence, too a need to inquire into the nature of the universe and know it as the Soul or the consciousness whilst one is awake, and not during sleep or Samadhi.

Advaitic truth is the ultimate truth. Yogis, mystics, and religious teachers do not accept the path of wisdom because it pries into the truth, the source, and the validity of the knowledge they claim. Therefore, it is the most difficult part of the study of the Advaita.

That is why Sage Sankara said VC-63: ~ “Without causing the objective universe to vanish and without knowing the truth of the Self, how is one to achieve Liberation.

The universe in which we exist will not remain as reality when wisdom dawns. The universe is a mere mirage created out of consciousness, and there is conscious awareness of unity in diversity because there is no second thing exist other than consciousness.

Lord Krishna confesses that the oldest wisdom of India (Advaitic wisdom) has been lost: people misinterpret and falsify it today as they did then. It is not yoga but the philosophic truth. But nobody knows it. The teachers of philosophy and leaders of mysticism or religion do not want to inquire into truth and have no time for it. (Gita –Chap- IV-v.2)

In the Gita Chap.IV where Lord Krishna says: ~ "This yoga has been lost for ages" the word yoga refers to Gnana yoga, not other yogas: the force of the word this is to point this out.

Lord Krishna describes some of the other yogas, but devotes this chapter separately to Gnana yoga. So one sees even in those ancient days, people did not care for Advaita; they wanted religion; hence, the Gnana got lost. That is why Krishna calls it "the supreme secret." Krishna points out that the yoga must see "Brahman in action."

Until a man is ripe to receive Self-knowledge, he will not be able to understand what I am saying.

Sage Sankara said:~ Neither by the practice of yoga nor philosophy, nor by good works nor by learning, does liberation come, but only through the realization that Atman and Brahman are one in no other way. (1) Vivekachoodamani v 56, pg. 25

Sage Sankara: ~ VC Neither sacred baths nor any amount of charity nor even Hundreds of pranayamas* can give us the knowledge about our own Self. The firm experience of the nature of the Self is seen to proceed from inquiry along the lines of the salutary advice of the wise. (13)

Sage Sankara: ~ “The vital-air Sheath cannot be the Self because it is the modification of air (Vayu). Like air, it enters the body and goes out of it, never knowing the joy and sorrow like others. It is ever dependent on the Self. ~Viveka Chudamani 165-166

Breath, body, and the world are one in essence. That essence is formless consciousness. The Consciousness (Soul) is the innermost Self. Breath, body, and the world are part and parcel of the illusion. By holding the breath (vital force) as the Self, one cannot get rid of the ignorance. Without getting rid of the ignorance, wisdom will not dawn. Wisdom dawns only when one realizes that form, time, and space are one in essence.

The truth realization is very simple. We make it complicated by mixing diverse theories, different ideologies, religion, and yoga. All our accumulated knowledge is the greatest hindrance in the pursuit of truth. To realize the truth beyond form, time, and space, one must have the courage of Buddha. Buddha got enlightenment only after dropping the religion, the Vedas, and the concept of God.

To realize the simple truth, there is no need to go from one mountain to another, one Ashram to another, or worship the Godmen or Guru as a God or convert from one faith to another. The truth is universal. Anyone can realize it if they have an intense urge.

There is no second thing that exists other than consciousness. The world in which we exist, all our thoughts, words, beliefs, and experiences are nothing but consciousness.

Realizing that consciousness is everything, is truth realization or Self-realization, or God-realization. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar

You are mortal because the ‘Self’ is not you. You are not the ‘Self’ because you are bound by the birth, life, death, world.+

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.

From the standpoint of the invisible Soul, the Self, the world in which you exist is merely an illusion.

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

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

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

Rig Veda: ~ 'Prajnanam Brahma'- Consciousness is the ultimate reality or Brahman or God in truth.

Do not accept any other truth other than consciousness. Consciousness is the ultimate truth. Nothing is real but consciousness.

Realize consciousness as the ultimate truth, or Brahman or God in truth. Consciousness is everywhere and in everything. Let these words be inscribed in your subconscious.

Remember:

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

The invisible and unborn Soul, the Self, is immortal because it is birthless and deathless. It is birthless and deathless because it is a formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.

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

The Soul is Self. The Soul is present in the form of consciousness. Consciousness is Self-illumined. So how can the body, which is inert (insentient) and illumined by an external agent, be consciousness, which is present only in the waking or dream?

Consciousness (Soul), the Self is apart from the three states and permanent, as it endures even after the death of the body and the world within the waking or dream. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar

Upanishads:~ Fools dwelling in darkness, but thinking they are wise and erudite, go round and round, by various tortuous paths.+

The path of wisdom attracts only those who are in search of truth, and they appreciate it greatly. The ignorant are not spiritually mature enough to receive Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana, or Atma Gnana.

The ignorant indulge in argument and provocation and personal attack, which hinders their own realization of the ultimate truth or Brahman.

Upanishads:~ Fools dwelling in darkness, but thinking they are wise and erudite, go round and round, by various tortuous paths, like the blind led by the blind. (Upanishads Nikilanada - Ch II-5 P-14)

Advaita is not the path of exchange of views or discussion. The seeker has to read, think deeply, and reflect on the subject constantly until the truth becomes firm. When the seeker has a firm conviction of what is reality, then the unreality fades on its own.

Everyone’s inner work is on. Until a man is ripe to receive Self-knowledge, he will not be able to understand what I am saying.

Even they may find it difficult in the first, as they go on reading and reflecting repeatedly the post their subconscious will start dropping the dualistic egocentric knowledge and start accepting the Soul-centric Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.

Grasping the truth depends on the spiritual maturity of the seeker. A Gnani shares the knowledge by inspiring the serious and sincere seekers of truth and diverting their attention towards the inward reality.

As their urge is at the seed level, and as they go on reading the words of wisdom, it will start growing.

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

Self-knowledge is not a question-and-answer session. As the seeker digs into old and new posts, he will gradually start understanding and assimilating the Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.

It is a waste of time to spend time in discussion with unqualified people.

Jesus said: ~ “ Do not throw your pearls before pigs, lest they trample them underfoot and turn to attack you. (Matthew -7:6)

~ Jesus meant knowledge of Spirit or God or Self-knowledge should not be shared with unqualified people.

The ultimate truth has to be realized first, and then only it is possible to know what the scriptures are saying. :~ Santthosh Kumaar

Ashtavakra:~

When Ashtavakra was twelve years old, Janak hosted a huge debating conference. Janak was an emperor, and he invited the pundits of the whole country to debate on the scriptures. He had one thousand cows placed at the palace gate and had the horns of the cows plated with gold and decorated with jewels. He proclaimed, “Whoever is victorious shall take possession of these cows.”

It was a great debate. Ashtavakra’s father also participated. As dusk was falling, the message came to Ashtavakra that his father was losing. He had already defeated all the others, but he was about to be defeated by a pundit named Vandin. Receiving this message, Ashtavakra went to the palace. The hall was decorated. The debate was in its final stage, and the decisive moment was fast approaching. His father’s defeat was a complete forgone conclusion – he was on the very edge of defeat.

The pundits saw Ashtavakra as he entered the royal court. They were all learned scholars. His body was bent and deformed in eight places: he had just to move and anyone would start laughing. His very movement was a laughing matter. The whole meeting broke into laughter. Ashtavakra also roared with laughter. Janak asked, “Everyone else is laughing. I can understand why they laugh, but why did you laugh, my son?”

Ashtavakra said, “I am laughing because the truth is being decided in this conference of butchers” – the man must have been extraordinary. ”What are all these skinners doing here?” A deep silence fell over the meeting. Butchers? Skinners? The king asked,

”What do you mean?”

Ashtavakra said, “It is simple and straightforward: They only see skin, they don’t see me. It is difficult to find a man more pure and simple than I, but they don’t see this; they see a bent and deformed body. They are skinners; they judge by the skin. Your Majesty, in the curve of a temple, is the sky curved? When a pot is smashed, is the sky smashed? The sky is beyond change. My body is twisted, but I am not. Look at the one within. You can’t find anything more straight and pure.”

It was a very startling declaration. There must have been pin-drop silence. Janak was impressed, astounded: “Absolutely right, why had he gathered a crowd of skinners there?” He became repentant; he felt guilty that he, too, had laughed. That day, the king couldn’t manage to say anything, but the following day, when he was out on his morning ride, he saw Ashtavakra on the way. Janak dismounted from his horse and fell at his feet. The day before, in front of everyone, he couldn’t find the courage.

The day before, he had said, “Why do you laugh, my son?” Ashtavakra was a boy of twelve years, and Janak had considered his age. This day he didn’t notice the age. This day, he got down from his horse and fell at Ashtavakra’s feet, spread-eagled in prostration.

He said, “Please visit the palace, and satisfy my eagerness for the truth.

Oh, lord, be so gracious as to come to my home. I have understood! I couldn’t sleep the whole night. You spoke truly: what depths of understanding have those who recognize only the body? They are debating the being, but attraction and repulsion for the body still arise; hate and attraction still arise. They are looking at death while talking of the deathless! I’m blessed that you came and disturbed me, that you broke my sleep. Please come to the palace!

Janak had the palace decorated magnificently. He welcomed Ashtavakra and seated him on a golden throne – this 12-year-old Ashtavakra. Then he put his questions to him. The first sutra is Janak’s inquiry. Janak asked, and Ashtavakra explained. Beyond this, nothing is known about Ashtavakra. And there is no need to know more, it is more than enough! Diamonds are not many; only pebbles and rocks are so common. A single diamond is enough. Maha Gita- by OSHO.

Even highly educated people are caught up in orthodoxy just because they have inherited it from their forefathers.+

Advatic Gnana (Advaitic wisdom) is given neither from outside nor from another person. The Guru of everyone is only the invisible Soul, the Self that is always revealing on its own.

The Seeker has to grow from the inside out by Soulcentric reasoning. None can teach him, none can make him reach the ultimate end of understanding. There is no other Guru but the invisible Soul, the Self.

The seeker must personally strive by all means to be free from the bondage of ignorance (I).

Bhagavan Buddha: ~ No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.

Orthodoxy is meant for the ignorant populace. Even highly educated people are caught up in orthodoxy just because they have inherited it from their forefathers.

Sage Sankara and Sage Goudpada have declared non-dual truth centuries back, but one has to reach the destination with the scientific (rational) investigation, not through punditry and intellectuality. One has to mentally reach the final conclusion, then only the conviction becomes firm. Without a firm conviction, wisdom will not dawn. Therefore, there is a need to realize that consciousness is real, all else is a myth, which Sage Sri, Sri, 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 Advaitic truth or rational truth, or scientific truth. Thus, their scientific truth of the whole, not the part, was declared by Sage Sankara 1400 years back 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.. – Santthosh Kumaar

Imparting the Advaitic wisdom to the unprepared mindset would be ‘equivalent to giving sermons to the stone statues.+

Imparting the Advaitic wisdom to the unprepared mindset would be ‘equivalent to giving sermons to the stone statues.

Everyone is not ripe enough to understand and assimilate the Nondualistic or Advaitic truth. Some people want to exhibit their intellectual wealth, but it has no value in the pursuit of truth.

The seeker must have enough patience, humility, and an intense urge to know the truth.

Arguments and provocation will not yield truth. Perfect understanding of ‘what is what ‘leads to the realization of Nondualistic or Advaitic truth.

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

Sage Sankara and Sage Goudpada have declared nondualistic truth centuries back, but one has to reach the destination with a scientific rationale investigation, not through punditry and intellectuality.

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 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 back 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.. –Santthosh Kumaar

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
