People think they can control the mind. But with what they are going to control the mind?

How can anyone control the mind, with the mind?

There is no other tool available other than the mind. How can man still his thoughts without knowing the nature of the mind? or what is the mind?

When the man and his experience of the world cease to exist without the mind.

It is necessary to know what is mind to realize the ultimate truth or Brahman.

Remember:~

The objective world is not a creation of the mind because the objective world itself is the mind. Thus, without knowing ‘What is mind? ‘What is the substance of the mind and ‘What is the source of the mind? it is difficult to understand, assimilate Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.

Realize what the mind is supposed to be with full and firm conviction.

The mind is present in the form of the ‘I’.

The mind is present in the form of form, time, and space.

The mind is present in the form of the universe.

The mind is present in the form of the dualistic illusion.

The mind appears as waking or dream (duality).

The mind disappears as deep sleep.

Remember:`

Without the mind:~

There is no ‘I’.

There is no form of form, time, and space.

There is no universe.

There is no dualistic illusion.

There is no waking or dream (duality.

From the spiritualistic perspective, the mind is limited to an individual because the mind is the whole universe.

People mistake the ego for the mind. They limit the mind to an individual. It is an error and this mistake has to be rectified by a perfect understanding and assimilation of ‘what is what.

The seeker has to know: whether the physical body and the world are within the mind or the mind is within the physical body?

The mind, physical body, ego, and the world are present only when the waking experience is present. And the mind is absent when the waking experience is absent.

Thus, one has to conclude the mind as the whole waking experience.

The mind appears as the waking experience or the dreams (duality) and disappears as deep sleep (nonduality).

All your arguments are true only on the base of the ego, which is the false Self, within the false experience (waking). The individual experiences within the waking are as real as a dream.

Suppose the same subject, if we are discussing in the dream and one asks me the same questions in the dream, then whatever he said in the dream becomes unreal, when the waking takes place.

Whatever one says now, he is saying within the waking experience. The waking is unreal on the base of the formless witness, which is the Atman. Atman is present in the form the consciousness.

How does one see various objects, scenes, and persons during dreams? If the dream is experienced without the physical body, then what is it that experiences the dream? Therefore, there must be a formless witness (knower) of the dream world. This formless witness is the same witness that is witnessed this waking experience also. Therefore, the waking experience and dream both are witnessed by one and only formless witness of which the seeker is not aware.

Since he considers the physical body (I) as the Self or witness and views and judges the world-view on the standpoint of the false self(ego), within the false experience. The formless witness can exist with or without waking or dream. But the waking or the dream ceases to exist, without the formless witness (Soul).

The gross Waking experience is merged into the mental experience in the sense that, when it is analyzed, it is found to exist inseparably in and as the Soul alone.

All "spiritual" planes are really mental: those who regard them as different or higher are deceiving themselves.

The dream becomes unreal when the waking takes place; similarly, the waking becomes unreal when the wisdom dawns. Therefore, everything has to be grasped mentally, not argued from the intellectual point of view, which is limited to the false physical entity within the false experience.

The unreal is created out of the real, and when one views and judges from the standpoint of unreal (ego) then there is duality. When one can view and judge from the standpoint of the real (Soul, the Self) then there is only non -duality.

When the Advaitic truth is revealed then there is neither the duality nor the non-duality, only reality.

All these confusions will go on until the man thinks, he is an individual and apart from the world, and the world existed prior to him and he is born in it afterward. Therefore, it is necessary to know the fact the true Self is not ego, but the true Self is the Soul, and stop viewing and judging the world-view from the standpoint of the physical self (ego), and one has to view and judge on the true Self (Soul) to realize the fact that, the world along with the man is an illusion.

The Soul which is present in the form of consciousness is the cause of the illusion. The Soul is the ultimate truth or Brahman. From the standpoint of the Soul, the innermost Self, there is no second thing that exists there is neither experience nor the experiencer in non-dual reality, but only Self-awareness. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
