If you are seeking the truth, there is no need to discuss no need to argue. Read and think and reason deeply the truth will start revealing on its own.+

From the standpoint of the formless Soul, the ‘Self’:~  

There is nothing to accept

Nothing to reject

Nothing to hold on to

Nothing to let go of

Nothing to grasp

Nothing to spurn

Nothing to embrace

Nothing to relinquish

Nothing to dissolve.

This is the  Advaitic truth. 

The seeker has to make sure his views and judgment based on the ego will not yield truth hidden by the ‘I’, which is the dualistic illusion.  The seeker has to learn to view and judge the worldview on the standpoint of the Soul, the ‘Self’ then only he will be able to unfold the mystery hidden by the dualistic illusion(universe) 

What is there to discuss and argue and exchange opinions? If one is seeking truth there is no need to discuss no need to argue but read and think and reason deeply the truth will start revealing on its own. Be an independent thinker. Do not accept anything without verification the seeker should not argue and waste his time. The argument will not yield truth. 

Only the intellectuals argue to exhibit their intellectual wealth. The intellectual argument is based on ego. The egocentric intellectuality is limited to form, time, and space. The truth you are seeking is based on the Soul. The Soul is beyond form, time, and space. Thus, what is the use of egocentric argument in the soulcentric discussion? 

That is why Bhagavan Buddha said: ~ Believe nothing because a wise man said it, Believe nothing because it is generally held. Believe nothing because it is written. Believe nothing because it is said to be divine. Believe nothing because someone else said it. But believe only what you judge to be true

Wisdom consists in knowing the truth, that everything (mind or physical existence) is consciousness. The freedom (ultimate truth) is always there yet one does not know it. But to those whose reason is turned away from physicality and who have attained the serenity of the Soul or the consciousness, the innermost Self, is quite near to realizing the ultimate truth or Brahman. 

Ashtavakra: ~ Diamonds are not many; only pebbles and rocks are so common. A single diamond is enough. 

Intellectuals argue, if everything is the consciousness, how can one give up anything? Can you give up anything? These types of questions are speculation based on the waking entity (ego), which is the false self within the false experience. Without knowing the ‘Self is not the form but the ‘Self’ is formless it is impossible to realize the truth, which is beyond the form, time, and space. 

All their speculation is limited to the domain of the form, time, and space whereas the truth is beyond the form, time, and space. They are incapable of understanding and assimilating truth, which is the ever formless, timeless, and spaceless existence. they refuse to verify and they want the truth on their own terms.

Agreeing and disagreeing is nothing to do with the Soul, the Self. Agreeing and disagreeing are possible from the dualistic perspective.

Self-knowledge will not arise from the exchange of views and opinions and arguments. The accumulated knowledge is not a yardstick, to realize the truth beyond the form of time and space.

The words that mean different things to different people take it or leave it, it matters not to me. It is what's behind the words, between the lines that matter. Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana is meant for the class, not for the mass. Advaitic path is not suited for those who indulge in an unnecessary argument from their own standpoint and indulge in the provocation. 

In the path of wisdom discussion of the unimportant subject matter is a great hindrance. The path of truth is the path of verification. Nothing has to be accepted as truth without verification. Agreeing to disagree causes unnecessary friction.

Remember:~ 

Sharing is giving info for the sake of goodness. As with all things, achieving a balance of peaceful communications is established with respect, humility, understanding, and patience. Balancing an achievement is harder.

The seeker has to stop passing unimportant opinions in this Atmic path. Atmic path is not the path of discussion, but the path of realization of the truth, which is beyond form, time, and space.

The Seeker has to think deeply instead of passing an opinion on his own point standpoint and he has to drop the judgmental attitude, which bars the realization of the truth, which is beyond the form, time, and space.

Intellectual discussion is a great hindrance in the pursuit of truth because intellectual knowledge is limited to the domain of form, time, and space.

There is no fear of losing anything because only ignorance vanishes and one becomes fully aware of ‘what is real and ‘what is unreal’ in the midst of the unreal waking experience.

This will ensure that one has reached the right path of progress and will eventually get the knowledge of the Self. A true seeker should seek only truth, nothing but the truth. His sincerity and urge to know the truth will lead him, not his mental decisions.

The seeker should be aware of everything untrue and stick to the truth hidden by the untruth.

Advaitic wisdom consists in knowing the truth, that everything (mind or physical existence) is consciousness. Freedom (truth) is always there yet one does not know it.  But to those whose reason is turned away from physicality and who have attained the serenity of the Soul, the Self (consciousness) is quite near to the ultimate truth. 

There are two kinds of audiences - the ordinary ones who desire the transitory heaven and other pleasures obtained as a result of ritual sacrifices, and the most advanced seeker who seeks to know the truth beyond the form, time, and space. The Bhagavad Gita is meant for the first audience, to help lead its followers along the way. The Ashtavakra Gita, with its emphasis on the Advaitic wisdom, is meant for those who wish to go beyond such transient pleasures.

What is the use of arguing on the base of the birth entity, which is not the Self?

What is the use of knowing what happens after death when the Self is birthless? 

What is the use of thinking of heaven and hell when the ‘Self ‘is not an individual and it is never born and never dies? 

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 Maya.

Remember 

If you keep on reading my posts and blogs old as well as new, all your doubts and confusion will vanish.

It takes time for the seeker to gain the perfect understanding of ‘what is the truth’ and ‘’what is untruth’. It takes time for the Soul, the innermost Self to wake up from the sleep of ignorance, and it takes time for one realizes the truth, which is beyond form, time, and space.

The body, the ego, and the world together are the mind. If the mind is there then only the body, the ego, and the world are present. The body, the ego, and the world appear together and disappear together. That is the mind that is present in the form of the ‘I’ appears and disappears. 

The one which witnesses the coming and going, of the ‘I’ (mind), is the Soul, the  Self. From the standpoint of the Soul, the Self the mind (the universe in which we exist) is non-existent as a reality.

The mind cannot be purified because the mind itself is an illusion. Till one thinks the mind is within the body, he will not be able to acquire Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana, because the body and the world are within the mind. And the mind is within the Soul.

Ignorance is the cause of duality. The duality is the cause of the illusion (Maya). The illusion is the cause of experiencing birth, life, death, and the world as a reality.

Self-knowledge leads to Self-awareness. The quest for truth is not the quest for acquiring the dualistic truth within the world. The seeker must have an intense urge to realize the truth which is beyond the form, time, and space.

The dualistic knowledge hides the truth beyond form, time, and space. The practical life within the practical world is nothing to do with the ultimate truth or Brahman.

The dualistic knowledge within the dualistic illusion is not Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.

This vast cosmos with all its contents (atom, molecule, sun, moon, planet, and star) all are 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 or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.

The Soul is the Self. the Soul is present in the form of consciousness. Awareness is the nature of the Soul or consciousness. Consciousness is existence itself.

Consciousness is ever-present. Without consciousness, the world, in which you exist ceases to exist. Consciousness is Self-evident. It is not established by extraneous proofs. It is not possible to deny consciousness because it is the very essence of the one who denies it. Consciousness is the basis of all kinds of knowledge, presuppositions, and proofs. Consciousness is everything. Thus, consciousness is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth. : ~Santthosh Kumaar
