If the man had seen God creating the world, he could admit it, but how could he have seen God before he came into existence?+

People accumulate knowledge by reading or hearing from different sources, and they think they are learned and already self-realized. Their half-baked knowledge leads to hallucinations. Without self-knowledge, or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana is impossible to realize the truth beyond the form, time, and space.

Rational thinking is necessary to realize the truth beyond form, time, and space because Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana is nothing to do with religion and its rituals.  The religious man alone thinks of the attributed consciousness with various names and forms.

If God is the formless spirit, then how does man know God created the world? There is no proof. If man had seen God creating the world, he could admit it, but how could he have seen God before he came into existence? (i.e. were created).

Mundaka Upanishads: So-called spiritual pundits and learned are called children because a child takes whatever it thinks as truth. The question never occurs to children “Is what I have seen or thought really the truth?" (P.334 line 9)

Pundits justify myths and religious fancies. Soulcentric Reasoning means strict thinking of facts.  Easy philosophy is a false philosophy. It may be a true religion.  People do not want the reason, to think.

The seekers of truth should not accept pundits' knowledge as the ultimate truth without deeper verification  A Gnani is no respecter of persons, but he is concerned with the ultimate truth or Brahman. 

Sage  Sankara himself declares ~ VC~ 61. For one who has been bitten by the serpent of Ignorance, the only remedy is the knowledge of Brahman. Of what avail are the Vedas and (other) Scriptures, Mantras (sacred formulae), and medicines to such a one?

62. A disease does not leave off if one simply utters the name of the medicine, without taking it; (similarly) without direct realization one cannot be liberated by the mere utterance of the word Brahman.

The person, who starts an exposition by bringing in Gods, is trying to force on others something which he believed as truth or something, which he has simply assumed. An assumption is something that is not in itself true but is assumed to be true.

How does one know that his idea of God corresponds to God? Philosophic doubt is needed. Every dream and vision must be tested if it is true.  The yogi thinks that by getting to Nirvikalpa Samadhi he reaches the highest; the religious man thinks that by getting God’s vision he reaches the highest, but how do they know it is the highest?:~Santthosh Kumaar
