From a non-dualistic perspective, miracles have no value because miracles and the performer of miracles are part and parcel of the illusory universe or Maya. Miracles are not the proof of the existence of God.
Gnanis do not perform miracles to attract attention to the truth. If anyone performed Miracles in a dream the dream, becomes unreal when waking takes place. Similarly, the waking becomes unreal when Advaitic wisdom dawns.
Advaitic Wisdom dawns when the waking entity (you) realizes it itself is not the Self, but the Self is the Soul, which witnesses the coming and going of the three states.
The witness of the three states and the three states are one in essence. That essence is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.
Remember:~
Many people are struck with awe or reverence at the outer indications of renunciation, and thus blindly accept a religious Guru or Godmen to be a Gnani. The two have no connection. Because he has no wife, no family, and no possessions" they think a man who has merely repressed these desires as though these things had anything to do with the wisdom he is merely a religious man.
People are quite incompetent to judge who is a Gnani between Godmen, intellectuals, and yogis. A Gnani is neither Godmen, nor a yogi, nor an intellectual.
The man who speaks about religious God, scriptures, and religion is not a Gnani. A yogi who speaks about yoga is not a Gnani. A Godman who indulges in miracles is not a Gnani.
An intellectual who argues on his own speculated theories is not a Gnani. A Gnani is the one who shares knowledge and guides people towards the source of the mind (physical existence) is real Gnani.
A Gnani never claims himself a teacher nor does he accept anyone as a disciple.
Sage Sankara regards personal realization as independent and convincing evidence.
Sage Sankara says that an individual’s experience cannot be disputed because the experience he went through was real to him; though that may not be real, from the absolute point of view.
Sage Sankara makes a distinction between the absolute view and the relative view of things.
A Guru who speaks of knowing Brahman within the body is thinking only of his head or heart, i.e. of his body. He is hallucinating.
You will not be able to find the truth because you are blindfolded by dualistic illusion. If you have to traverse the path, you will have to seek the aid of the one who knows the truth beyond the form, time, and space; else you will wind up meandering here and there without gaining anything.
The ‘Self’ is not within you because the ‘Self’ is not the body. If the ‘Self’ is not you, then why you think the Self is within you. Deeper Self-search reveals the fact that you and the world are within the Soul the innermost Self. Perfect understanding and assimilation lead to Advaitic Self-awareness. : ~Santthosh Kumaar
