Nothing is real but Soul which is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God.+

Swami Vivekananda: This bending the knee to superstitions, this selling yourself to your own mind does not befit you, the Soul. Self is infinite, deathless, and birthless. Because the Self is infinite Spirit, it does not befit you to be a slave. ... Arise! Awake! Stand up and fight! Die if you must. There is none to help you. Self is the entire world. Who can help you? - 

People who are worshipping religious Gods are hallucinating about their Gods of belief as truth.   They must know what God is supposed to be in truth according to their own scriptures.  First, they must know what is God without knowing the truth of God worshipping a false God leads to hallucination.

The existence of God or no God is only a belief. Belief is not the truth.  Religion imposed people to blindly follow their inherited belief verification. Religion is based on blind belief. Every religion has its own beliefs and dogmas. Religion discourages people to verify whether it is based on truth or not.

That is why Lord Krishna Says Ch ~V: ~ “Those who know me in truth."  The last two words (tattvataha) are usually ignored by pundits, but they make all the difference between the ordinary concept of God and the truth about God.

Lord Krishna himself says that he can do nothing to make a man intelligent straight away. The adepts give Prasad, blessing, initiations, mantrams, etc. only to confer temporary peace of mind, to help one to get rid of worries, but not to confer Gnana. The capacity to receive it must first be inborn in man by evolutionary degree.

All sect-based beliefs are dualistic and unphilosophical nothing to do with the ultimate truth or Brahman or God.  In spirituality the ultimate truth is God.  The God of Vedas is nothing to do with the religious Gods.

Realize that God is the Soul, the Self. Nothing is real but Soul which is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God. Nothing matters but love for the Soul, which is the real God.  The Soul, the real God is everywhere and does everything.  The Soul, the real God is beyond form, time, and space.  The Soul the real God is everything. The Soul the real God alone is real and all else is an illusion.

To realize the Advaitic truth the seeker has to be free from all superstitions and orthodox contaminations. The seeker has to be dedicated to acquiring Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana alone.

The Vedas confirm God is Atman (Spirit), the Self.

Rig Veda: ~ 'Prajnanam Brahma'- Consciousness is the ultimate reality or Brahman or God in truth.

Do not accept any other God other than the Soul. The Soul is God in truth,  Nothing is real but the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. Nothing matters but realize  God in truth. God in truth is everywhere and in everything. Let these words be inscribed in your subconscious.

God in truth is hidden by the illusory universe. God in truth alone is real and eternal and all else is an illusion.

Brahman is merely a word to indicate the ultimate truth or God in truth.  The ultimate truth itself is God in truth. 

Rig Veda: ~ The Atman (Soul or Spirit) is the cause; Atman is the support of all that exists in this universe. May ye never turn away from the Atman, the Self. May ye never accept another God in place of the Atman nor worship other than the Atman?" (10:48, 5)

Rig-Veda 1-164-46 and Y.V 32-1 clearly mention that God is “One”.

Rig Veda declares God is ‘ONE’ and God is Atman, then why believe and worship in place of real God.

Yajurveda – chapter- 32:~    God is Supreme Spirit has no ‘Pratima’ (idol) or material shape. God cannot be seen directly by anyone. God pervades all beings and all directions. 

Thus,   Idolatry does not find any support from the Vedas.

Brihadaranyaka Upanishad: ~ Brahman (God) is in the form of the Athma, and it is indeed Athma itself.

The Bhagavad Gita: ~ brahmano hi pratisthaham ~ Brahman is considered the all-pervading consciousness which is the basis of all the animate and inanimate entities and material. (14.27)

People who are stuck with the religious idea of Gods will never be able to cross the threshold of the dualistic illusion. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
