Whatever you have read, heard, seen, known, believed, and experienced as a person of the world is a reality within the dualistic illusion. The dualistic illusion is present in the form of the 'I'.
The 'I' is present only when the mind is present.
The universe is present when the waking is present.
The waking appears when the mind (I) appears, and it disappears when the mind disappears. Therefore, all our experiences are within the mind, which is in the form of the universe.
The universe appears as waking or dream(duality) and disappears as deep sleep(nonduality). There is no mind in deep sleep.
If there is no mind then there is no physical body, no ego, and no world.
If there is no physical body, no ego, and no world then there is no waking experience.
If there is no waking then there is no experience of birth, life, death, and the world.
Therefore, a perfect understanding of 'what is what' is needed to assimilate Self-Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.
There is no need to follow any egocentric theories and teaching in pursuit of truth.
