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, 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
First, know what this unknown truth you are seeking. The seeker is seeking the truth of his true existence, which is hidden by the form, time, and space.
Truth means certainty. The dualistic truth is not a certainty because the dualistic truth is based on the ego and it is limited to the form, time, and space whereas the non-dualistic truth is based on the Soul, which is formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.
If there is any uncertainty it is not the truth. It does not deal with imagination.
People do not have a scientific attitude because they take things as presented to them. They have rather an emotional and sentimental attitude. The correct attitude is to verify all the facts, to see a problem in them, something to investigate and inquire into them.
Truth must be verifiable; unless it is verifiable it is of no value. Those who lack the capacity to doubt are not fit for the pursuit of truth.
Analogical, inductive, and deductive reasoning, is good only within the domain of the form, time, and space; none is absolutely and universally infallible because they are based on the ego or the physical self.
The religious truth is based on blind belief. But in pursuit of truth, doubt is the main ingredient.
Most people have the desire to know the truth but the capacity to understand and grasp the truth, which is beyond the form, time and space is limited. The result is that people resolve the conflict by jumping to the first and simplest and easiest conclusion as the correct one, and smugly but unjustifiably thinking “I know”: Thus, they commit the fallacy of primitivity.
Gurus or pundits or yogis statements shouldn’t be accepted blindly as the ultimate truth because they are based on the dualistic perspective that is not proof. The truth based on the dualistic belongs to the dualistic illusion therefore not the truth.
All the claims have to be verified before accepting them as truth. Because all the religious and yogic and mystic truth is based on the form, time, and space.
From the ultimate standpoint the form, time, and space are an illusion. Thus, whatever is based on the form, time and space are a dualistic illusion. Whatever is based on the dualistic illusion is bound to be an untruth.
The Soul, the Spirit is the highest truth. The Soul is the cause of the universe and it itself is uncaused.
The ultimate truth cannot be known by intuition but it can be grasped from Soulcentric reason by discriminating between the Soul and the ego. Whatever is based on the Soul is the ultimate truth and whatever is based on the ego is the untruth.
Therefore, there is a need to know first the ‘Self’ is not you but the Self is the Soul, the Spirit.
You learn to start reasoning on the base of the Soul, then all your clouds of confusion start clearing on their own. And you will finally realize the form, time and space are nothing but an illusion created out of the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.
From the standpoint of the Soul, the Self, there is no confusion left because everything is consciousness. There is no second thing that exists other than consciousness.
Thus, the Soul alone is real and all else is an illusion. The Soul is one without the second therefore, the Soul is Advaita. Advaita is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God.
The spiritual writings, writers, the readers, and the world in which they all exist were created out of single stuff. That single stuff is the Spirit. Knowledge of the single stuff is Self-knowledge. Self-knowledge leads to Self-awareness.
Self-awareness leads to unity in diversity (oneness) because everything is created out of single stuff. The whole universe in which we exist is nothing but the spirit.
The Spirit (Soul) alone is real and the universe in which we are discussing is merely an illusion. Thus, our words, thoughts, and our intellectuality have no value in the Atmic discussion. The Atmic discussion is not based on the form, time, and space, but it is the knowledge of the beyond the form, time, and space.
There is no scope for argument in the Atmic discussion. The argument is possible only on the dualistic perspective. On the non-dualistic perspective, there is no dualistic illusion, because, there is unity in diversity or Oneness.
The truth is oneness. There is no scope for duality in Advaitic truth. ~
