By indulging in meditation, ignorance will not vanish. Without getting rid of the ignorance, the Advaitic wisdom will not dawn.

The Soul, the Self is God of Reality hidden by the ‘I’. Till ‘I’ exists the ignorance prevails. The universe is a dualistic illusion or Maya.   Till ignorance is present the illusory universe will prevail as a reality.

The meditator, mediation and the world in which meditator exists is within the dualistic illusion. What is the use of indulging in meditation within the dualistic illusion? 

 Why to  waste time indulging in  physical based mediation  instead  the seeker has to utilize the same time  to acquire Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana through deeper Self-search. 

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

Remaining thoughtless in the waking experience is yogic Samadhi or meditation. Yogic Samadhi and meditation are not Advaitic wisdom.  

Remember:~

Meditation is not a tool to get Self-realization is not possible through meditation. All the physical-based mediation is only trying to imitate the nature of the ‘Self’ by indulging in meditation the ignorance will not vanish. Without getting rid of the ignorance Self-realization is an impossibility because meditation does not help to realize the Self hidden by the ignorance.

By sitting quietly observing with dispassion whatever arises is an imaginary peace and tranquillity, which is impermanent. Meditation does not release one from ignorance.

Ignorance will never vanish without Advaitic wisdom. Ignorance will not vanish without inquiring into the nature of the universe.  

Meditation always means a critical analysis of the Self to get rid of ignorance.

Meditate on an object mechanically is not real meditation. Meditate on the subject. The world is an object to the Soul, which is the formless subject. Get so much drowned in Soul-awareness by realizing the Soul alone is real and all else is an illusion created out of the Soul till the illusion becomes alone with the Soul, which is present in the form of the consciousness.

For meditation, one need not sit and chant God's name or concentrate on some object. Anything you do will not be meditation. If there is a doer then it is not meditation. As long as there is doing, there is ignorance.

As long as the doer is present, the ego is present. If the ego is present the whole world is present. If the world is present the duality is present. If the duality is present then there is an illusion. If the illusion is present the birth, life, death, and the world are experienced as a reality.

By realizing the world in which you exist is created out of single stuff. That single stuff is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. Knowledge of the single stuff is Self-knowledge.

Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana leads to self-awareness. In self-awareness the Soul, the 'Self' remains in its own awareness in the midst of the form, time, and space. Thus, Self-awareness is real meditation. Mediation is the nature of the Soul, the Self. : ~Santthosh Kumaar
