God exists as the ultimate truth or Brahman. Hence, in the path of wisdom do not use the word, God. It will be misunderstood. Thus, Brahman, which means the ultimate truth, is the right word to indicate the ultimate truth or the ultimate reality.
Just for the communication to indicate the ultimate truth, the word God is used to indicate the God in truth, which is Atman, the Brahman.
The Soul is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth. God in truth is present in the form of consciousness.
God in truth is Self-evident. It is not established by extraneous proofs. It is not possible to deny God in truth because God in truth is the very essence of the one who denies God in truth. God in truth is the basis of all kinds of knowledge, presuppositions, and proofs.
God in truth is the witness-consciousness that experiences the action, the actor, and the world of separate things. It is like a light that illuminates everything in a theatre, revealing the master of ceremonies, the guests, and the dancers with complete impartiality. Even when they all depart, the light shines to reveal their absence.
Sage Sankara’s Supreme Brahman (God in truth) is impersonal, Nirguna (without Gunas or attributes), Nirakara (formless), Nirvisesha (without special characteristics), immutable, eternal, and Akarta (non-agent). God in truth is above all needs and desires. God in truth is always the Witnessing Subject. God in truth can never become an object as God in truth is beyond the reach of the senses. God in truth is non-dual, one without a second. God in truth has no other besides it. God in truth is destitute of difference, either external or internal. God in truth cannot be described because the description implies a distinction. God in truth cannot be distinguished from any other than God in truth. In God in truth, there is not a distinction between substance and attribute. Sat-Chit-Ananda constituted the very essence or Svarupa of God, and not just God in truth's attributes. The Nirguna Brahman of Sage Sankara is impersonal.
Remember:~
The world in which exists is an illusory play of consciousness. It is the ignorance that binds the Soul, the Self. It is the Soul that has to get rid of ignorance.
The Soul is eternally free, but it is caught up in the dualistic illusion due to ignorance.
When ignorance vanishes through Advaitic wisdom the Soul becomes free from experiencing the dualistic illusion as a reality.
Thus, it is the Soul, the Self, which is in ignorance. It is the Soul, the Self that wants freedom from the dualistic illusion.
It is necessary to realize the ‘Self’ is not you, but the ‘Self’ is the Soul. you are bound by birth, life, death, and the world whereas the Soul is birthless and deathless because it is ever formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.
The Soul, the Self has nothing to do with your birth, life, death, and the world because your experience of birth, life, death, and the world is part of the dualistic illusion.
So, you are the false entity within the dualistic illusion. Realizing the Soul as the ‘Self is Self-realization.:~Santthosh Kumaar
