The more one indulges in deeper self-search, he learns and able to grasp the Advaita.+



Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana cannot be attained by the study of the scriptures and intellectual understanding or by bookish knowledge.  Therefore, there is no use in studying the scriptures and other scriptures to acquire non-dualistic or Advaitic wisdom.  

That is why Buddha rejected the scriptures, and even Sage Sankara indicated that the ultimate truth lies beyond religion, the concept of God, and the scriptures.

There is only one Reality to be known, the same for all seekers, but the ways to it, are hidden by the religion.  Self-discovery is the only way, towards a non-dual Absolute without any religious doctrines, which will help the seekers to unfold the mystery of the illusion in which we all are searching the truth of our true existence. 

There is a need for an atmosphere of free will; wherein deeper self-search is the order of the day. The more one indulges in deeper self-search, he learns and can grasp the non-dualistic or Advaitic truth.

This helps the seeker of truth to be inquisitive and opens his vistas and dialogue with like-minded fellow seekers. The dialogue between the religious and the non-religious is of no use.

What is important is the truth of existence is first and then the rest in pursuit of truth. 

The Seeker of truth needs to work towards, how he has to find answers for all his doubts and confusions. Most people consider the ultimate truth as a threat to their religious beliefs.

Remember:~

The ultimate aim of the human being is to find and realize the truth and work towards it rather than fight that one has the truth to oneself, and other truths are wrong or inferior. Realization of the truth of one’s true existence is an important factor as mankind is caught up in the crossroads of witnessing wars and terrorism in the name of fundamentalism.

Universal peace is a need of the hour. The political oppression and religious agenda of conversion are being challenged all over. This requires a perfect understanding of what is the truth and what is not the truth, for constructive action rather than destruction. 

As the old tenets of the religion are losing ground, newer avenues are sought through fundamentalism to protect the old rut, which is a dangerous sign. Only the realization of non-dual helps to bring in greater tolerance and social responsibility.

Seekers of truth must read more on critical thinking and develop their spirit of reasoning.  

The younger generation who are exposed to the world and realities of the atrocities committed in the name of religion and God are moving towards questioning the hypocrisy of religion. This is an important force to reckon with and needs to be tapped to make the younger generations constructive thinkers with strong reasoning. 

 Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana is the best suited for the modern mindset. The seeker of truth has to strive to acquire the Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana in lesser time and effort by dropping all inherited egocentric knowledge and samskaras and conditioning by realizing what is what.  

A deeper self–search helps the seeker clear all the cobweb doubts and confusion in the pursuit of truth.

Until and unless one becomes aware of what is real and what is unreal there is only confusion, doubts, and arguments because we are holding the false self (ego] and false experience as reality and viewing judging the truth of the false self which is ‘ego or waking entity’.  Self-ignorance can only be removed by the knowledge of the true Self.

Remember:~

In my view, self-ignorance limits the mind or ‘I’ to the physical entity, which is the cause of duality (universe or samsara), whereas the Self pervades all three states (dual and non-dual experiences) as its formless substance and witness.  Thus, holding only the body is not self is erroneous; the world has to be included in it.   

The Self is hidden by the dualistic illusion or Maya as its formless substance and the Self is apart from the illusion as its formless witness. Self is apart because it is not an entity or identity within the illusion(duality or samsara).   

Thus birth, life, and death are part of the illusion because they happen in the world which is mithya.  

The one which witnesses the mithya or illusion (I) is Atman. The formless witness and illusion (I) are one in essence.  Only By realizing this fact the unity in diversity is possible. One will be able to realize the fact that the body and the world are created out of Atman.

The Seeker on being heated and tormented by his spiritual trouble presented himself before the inner guru to be liberated from his troubles. Observing his sufferings, the inner guru, began to revel in the form of revelation to liberate her from her troubles.

The inner revelation  overflowing with perfect guidance, on the “Realization of Reality” of the Universe, God, birth, life, death, and the world, the Real Self, Religion, and the Ideal, so that after Realizing the Reality one   may liberate himself from the troubles of duality to pass her life peacefully and cheerfully.:~Santthosh Kumaar
