Those who are seeking truth nothing but truth this Gurudom business becomes a great hindrance in realizing the truth.+


There is no need to condemn any Gurus or their teaching but for those who are seeking truth nothing but the truth of this Gurudom,  business becomes a great hindrance in realizing the truth.

Swami Vivekananda: ~ “The wicked are always looking for defects. Flies come and seek for the ulcer, and bees come only for the honey in the flower. Do not follow the way of the fly but that of the bee.

The Advaitic wisdom is not suited for the unsettled mind, which is stick to the religion, yoga and all non-~Vedic worship and activities.   There is no use of convincing such a mindset. Everyone is free to move on his chosen path.

Bhagavan Buddha: ~ “There are only two mistakes one can make along the road to truth: not going all the way... and not starting.

That is why Bhagavan Buddha said: ~ Believe nothing just because a so-called wise person said it. Believe nothing just because a belief is generally held. Believe nothing just because it is said in ancient books. Believe nothing just because it is said to be of divine origin. Believe nothing just because someone else believes it. Believe only what you yourself test and judge to be true. 

The goal of the truth-seeker is to acquire Self- knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana. Self- knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana is inherent in every seeker of truth. Self- knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana does not come from outside, it is hidden within the world in which we exist.
Self-knowledge cannot be attained by the study of the scriptures and intellectual understanding or by bookish knowledge.  Therefore, there is no use of studying the scriptures and other scriptures in order to acquire the nondual wisdom.  That is why Bhagavan Buddha rejected the scriptures, and even Sage Sankara indicated that the ultimate truth lies beyond religion, the concept of God and scriptures.

Bhagavan Buddha gave up yoga after practicing it for six years. He saw it could not yield truth.

Buddha gave up his austerities of yoga as impossible and useless. Thus, Buddha got enlightenment only after he gave up Yoga. (Page.70/71 "Buddhism In Translation” by Warren)

Unless one exercise his Buddhi--reason--there is no chance of getting the ultimate truth or Brahman.

Bhagavan Buddha:  ~ “We live in illusion and the appearance of things.  There is a reality.  We are that reality.  When you understand this, you see that you are nothing, and being nothing, you are everything.  That is all.

The Soul is the universe because the universe is an illusion created out of the Soul, the innermost ’Self’.  The physical Guru and the disciple are part of that illusion.  The Soul is within the dualistic but it is apart from the dualistic illusion.    The Soul is hidden by the dualistic illusion neither an entity nor as an identity nor as a thing but it is the formless substance of the dualistic illusion and it is apart because it is the formless witness of the dualistic illusion.

The dualistic illusion is present in the form of the ‘I’, perfect understanding of ‘what is what 'is needed not Guru or Guru teaching.

Advaita is not any type of teaching or philosophy. Advaita is the knowledge of your true existence. Advaita is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.  Advaita is the ultimate reality, Brahman, or God in truth.  

That is why Sage Sankara said:~Talk as much philosophy as you like, worship as many Gods as you please, observe ceremonies and sing devotional hymns, but liberation will never come, even after a hundred aeons, without realizing the Oneness.

The ‘Self’ is not you but ‘Self’ is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.

If you are stuck to any physical Guru or if you identify yourself with any Guru’s disciple than your spiritual journey is incomplete.

Sticking to physical Guru is sticking to ignorance.  If you hold yourself as a follower or disciple of a Guru then you are stuck by accepting the dualistic illusion as a reality.

The seeker's main aim is to transcend dualistic illusion into Advaitic reality.  The dualistic illusion created out of single stuff. That single stuff is   Soul, which is the Spirit or the consciousness. The knowledge of the Soul is Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.

Thus, by, sticking to the Guru you will not be able to acquire Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.  Come out of the old outdated idea of having a Guru.

By identifying as a Guru or some Guru’s disciple keeps one in the cage of the ignorance. A person who identifies himself as a Guru or disciple will never be able to get Advaitic Gnana.
The Guru and disciple and the world in which Guru and disciple exist are created out single stuff. That single stuff is consciousness. The consciousness is the ultimate truth of Brahman.
Ashtavakra Samhita: ~ "The man of knowledge (Gnani), though living like an ordinary man, is contrary to him and only those like him understand his state.
A Gnani can point at the sky, but the seeing of the star is the seeker's own work.
The truth-seeker seeks only truth. The inner Sage will guide you with love. Your sincerity and seriousness lead you to your inner core. Sincere and serious seekers are not excluded.
Sage Sankara says the transparent Truth of the Self, which is hidden by the illusion, is to be attained through the instructions of a knower of Brahman, (Gnani)
~ Then why you are sticking to a Guru who is not a Gnani and his teaching is not Advaitic Gnana.
That is why Swami Vivekananda said: ~ “You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, none can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher, but your own Soul.”
Swami Vivekananda: ~Jñāna Yoga is divided into three parts. First: hearing the truth--that the Atman is the only reality and that everything else is Maya. Second: reasoning upon this philosophy from all points of view. Third: giving up all further argumentation and realizing the truth. This realization comes from being certain that Brahman is real and everything else is unreal.

Yogis and Gurus are not Gods.
This idea of worshiping Guru as God is not a Vedic idea but adopted from Jainism and Buddhism.
Vedas bars human worship: ~
Yajur Veda:~"They are enveloped in darkness, in other words, are steeped in ignorance and sunk in the greatest depths of misery who worship the uncreated, eternal prakrti -- the material cause of the world -- in place of the All-pervading God, But those who worship visible things born of the prakrti, such as the earth, trees, bodies (human and the like) in place of God are enveloped in still greater darkness, in other words, they are extremely foolish, fall into an awful hell of pain and sorrow, and suffer terribly for a long time.":~ (Yajur Veda 40:9.)
Then why to worship and glorify the Gurus and Yogis (human form) in place of God when Veda bars such activities and it also warns people who indulge in such activities are enveloped in still greater darkness, in other words, they are extremely foolish, fall into an awful hell of pain and sorrow, and suffer terribly for a long time.:~Santthosh Kumaar
