Getting rid of the ignorance is the only way to realize the ultimate truth or Brahman.+

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. Whatever is based on the waking entity is falsehood and whatever is based on the formless Soul, the innermost Self is real and eternal. Thus, the seeker of truth must make sure the waking entity (ego) is not the Self but the Self is formless Soul in order to acquire Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.

The seeker has to have an inner urge to know the truth seriousness, patience, and humility in order to reach the ultimate end of understanding. A man of truth will not indulge in an argument he keeps his distance with such a mindset. 

Withdrawal from the practical life within the practical world is not the way to get away from delusion. Ignorance is the cause of experiencing delusion as a reality. Getting rid of ignorance is the only way to realize the ultimate truth or Brahman, which is beyond form, time, and space.

Duality and nonduality are philosophic words, but in perfect perception one never perceives the real and the unreal at the same time. 

Remember:~

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

Consciousness (Soul) the innermost 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.

Even the subtle body consists of many parts and is unstable. It is also an object of perception, and is changeable, limited, and non-existent by nature. So how can this be the true Self, when the body exists only within the duality (universe)? 

When the Soul wakes up from ignorance and remains in its own awareness in the midst of duality, it is called Self-awareness.

The Soul is the Self. The Soul is present in the form of consciousness that pervades everywhere and in everything in the universe. The universe is present in the form of the ‘I’. The ‘I’ is present in the form of the mind.

 What is ‘I’? How these three states are created? Who is its creator? Of what material is these three states are made? This is the way of that inquiry, analysis, and reasoning on the true base. The consciousness or Soul is neither the body, nor the matter, nor is the consciousness an aggregate of the senses; the consciousness is something different from these.

The ‘I’ is an illusory nature of the Soul or the consciousness. ‘I-LESSNESS is the true nature of the Soul the innermost self,

Thus, the mind which is in the form of the universe is merely an illusion created out of consciousness.   From the standpoint of the Soul, the  Self, and The mind is a myth. 

Till you think the mind is within the body you will not be able to realize the truth beyond the form, time, and space. Deeper self-search reveals the fact that. The mind is the universe in which you exist. When the mind (I) is there the universe in which you exist is there. If the mind disappears the universe in which you exist also disappears. 

You and your senses and your experience of the world are made of the same stuff. That stuff is the Soul which is present in the form of the spirit. From the standpoint of the Soul or the Spirit, you and your senses and your experience of the world are nothing but the spirit. Thus, the spirit alone is real and you and your senses and your experience of the world are merely an illusion.

Remember:~

What is this “I”? The ‘I’ is the mind. The body and the world together are mind. If the mind is there, then only you and your experience of the world is there. If the mind is not there, then you and your mind cease to exist.

The mind is present in the form of the universe’ the universe appears as the waking or the dream (duality) and disappears as the deep sleep (nonduality).

Whatever the universe (mind or waking) contains is a myth.  Thus, the experience of birth, life and death, the pleasure and the pain which are happenings within the universe are a myth.   Thus, judging the truth on the base of the ego (you) is erroneous because the ego is the false self (ego) within the false experience (waking). 

The gross universe is merged into the mental universe in the sense that when it is analyzed, it is found to exist inseparably in and as the mind alone. All "spiritual" planes are really mental: those who regard them as different or higher will remain ignorant.

A Gnani is free from experiencing the illusion (body + universe) as a reality, he is fully aware of the fact that his body and his experience of the world as an illusion are created out of consciousness. Thus everything in the universe is nothing but consciousness. Thus, consciousness is the ultimate truth or Brahman.  :~Santthosh Kumaar
