The universe is real Veda, the real Koran, the real Bible. The universe is the book, and all other books are man-made.
The seeker has to inquire into the nature of the universe, which confronts him then only what is hidden from him will be revealed to him.
All the religious scriptures and holy books are irrelevant -- God's greatest book is just in front of you.
All religions have the same type of claim. Muslims say the Koran has descended from God, and so with Jews and Christians. Everybody is trying to claim that their book is the sacred book and nobody bothers to look at the real divine book.
This is what the real Veda, the real Koran, the real Bible is. This is the book, and all other books are man-made. Only this universe is the book that is authored by God because God is hidden by the universe.
The universe is real Veda, the real Koran, the real Bible is. The universe is the book, and all other books are man-made.
Only when you open the book of the universe the God hidden in the book will be revealed. When you finish reading the book of the universe then the universe will become an illusion and God alone prevails as the ultimate reality.
Sage Sankara says: ~ “What is accepted without a proper inquiry will not lead a person to the final goal. On the contrary, such acceptance will result only in evil, in something detrimental to our spiritual progress.
You are also part of the divine book of the universe! And whatever you have seen, known, believed, and experienced as an individual is part of it. The universe hides the Soul, the God.
Sage Sankara says you must first know what is before you. If you cannot know that, what else can you know or understand? If you give up the external world in your inquiry, you cannot get the whole truth.
5. Jesus said:~ "Know what is in front of your face, and what is hidden from you will be disclosed to you.
For there is nothing hidden that will not be revealed. [And there is nothing buried that will not be raised.]" (Jesus spoke and didymos judas thomas recorded)
Sage Sankara: ~ “VC~ All this universe which through ignorance appears as of diverse forms, is nothing else but Brahman which is absolutely free from all the limitations of human thought
If you realize the universe is created out of single stuff and that stuff is consciousness then there is nothing was hidden that will not be revealed. Consciousness alone is real and all the attributes are an illusion.
All the attributes are present only in the domain of the form, time, and space whereas the truth is the formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.
All attributes based on philosophy or knowledge are based on the dualistic perspective. Whatever is based on the dualistic perspective is egocentric knowledge. All egocentric knowledge is based on falsehood. The ego (you) is the false self within the false experience.
Katha Upanishad (1.2.5) says; -"Caught in the grip of ignorance, self-proclaimed experts consider themselves learned authorities. They wander about this world befooled, like the blind leading the blind.
Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana is Soulcentric knowledge. Whatever is based on the Soul is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God.
All that is real in the world in which we exist is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. The Soul is the Self. By realizing the ‘Self’ is not you but the Soul, we find that the Real God is hidden by the world in which we exist.
All the attributes (quality) are merely an illusion to the Soul, the Self. The Soul, which is present in the form of the consciousness, is attributeless (quality-less) because it is ever formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.
The awareness is the nature of the Soul, the innermost Self. When the Soul remains I it owns Awareness then it is unattached and unshaken. It is lucid, silent, peaceful, alert, and unafraid, without desire and fear because it is free from the dualistic illusion of the form, time, and space.
Reflect on the nature of the Soul by realizing the world, in which you exist is created out of the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.
When you get a firm conviction that the whole universe is created out of single stuff and that single stuff is consciousness then that very conviction leads to self-awareness in the midst of the diversity. Then there is unity in diversity in your realization.: ~ Santthosh Kumaar
