Only those who have realized, the universe is an illusion can realize God in truth hidden by the illusory universe.+

Those who believe the universe is reality are ignorant. Only those who have realized, the universe is an illusion can realize God in truth hidden by the illusory universe.

Sage Sankara says the world is an illusion; it includes birth, life, and death, which happens within the world. Thus, the seeker's main aim is to mentally trace the formless substance of the illusion, which is also the witness of the illusion. The formless substance and witness of the illusion (world) is the Atman, and this Atman itself is Brahman.

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.

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).

First, know ‘what is the truth’ and ‘what is untruth’ for sure. Without realizing what untruth truth is, it is difficult to know what truth is.

Sage Sankara: ~ VC-As layers of clouds generated by the sun's rays cover the sun and alone appear (in the sky), so egoism generated by the Self, covers the reality of the Self and appears by itself."

Sage Sankara: ~VC- if the universe is true, let it then be perceived in the state of deep sleep also. As it is not at all perceived, it must be unreal and false like dreams.

The whole universe is nothing but the Soul. Therefore, there is no second thing that exists other than the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.

The Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness, is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth.

The Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness, is the only reality in which everything exists, to which everything belongs, and from which everything has emerged, is the cause of everything, and is everything.

Thus, there is a need to realize the Self is not you but the ‘Self is the Soul, which is present in the form of the consciousness. The world in which we exist is nothing but consciousness.

When the matter is an illusion created out of the Spirit then Spirit alone is real.

When the object is created out of the subject then the subject alone is real.

When the world in which you exist is created out of consciousness then consciousness alone is real.

Reality and unreality are created out of single stuff because the unreality (the world in which we exist), is experienced as a reality we are unaware of the reality hidden by the unreality.

There is no second thing that exists other than the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. The dualistic illusion, which is present in the form of the ‘I’, hides the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.

The Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness, is God in truth and the ‘I’ hides God in truth.:~Santthosh Kumaar
