People think that by thinking of their Gurus and reading books of different Gurus and different teachings, they get wisdom.
What is the use of thinking on the base of the ego if they cannot get rid of ignorance?
They think by accumulating knowledge they will get Gnana, but they are unaware that they collected mental garbage which will become a hindrance to realizing the truth, which is beyond form, time, and space.
To find the truth beyond form, time, and space, one must realize that form, time and space are one, in essence. That essence is consciousness. Consciousness is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth.
Remember:~
Self-Knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana to be attained in the midst of waking life, the aspirant should carefully and minutely analyze the nature of the mind, which is present in the form of the universe.
The universe appears as waking or dream (duality) disappears as deep sleep (nonduality), and grasps the impermanent nature of all three states.
If the three states are impermanent, what, then, is Eternal and, therefore, worth aspiring for? This question cannot be answered by the seeker's intellect, for the intellect itself is a finite and frail instrument and one amongst the impermanent objects in this vanishing waking experience.
When the seeker gradually starts doubting and starts to investigate mentally he realizes the existence of the witness of the coming and going of the three states.
The soul, the Self is the witness of the coming and going of the three states. The Soul is present in the form of consciousness.
From the standpoint of the Soul, the Self, the three states are non-existent as a reality.
When the unreal nature of the three states is exposed the seeker realizes the three states are created out of a single stuff. That single stuff is consciousness.
When the seeker realizes the three states are created out of a single stuff, that itself is the signal that ignorance is the cause of experiencing birth, life, death, and the world as a reality.
Thus, the seeker's conviction about the reality of the world in which he exists gets loosened.: ~ Santthosh Kumaar
