Advaitic wisdom got lost because people believe in religion and yoga as the stepping stone for Self-realization.
The orthodoxy propagated Advaita, is not Advaitic wisdom.
The Advaitic orthodoxy has nothing to do with the Advaitic wisdom of Sage Sankara.
It is a waste of time and effort to get Self-realization by following the path of Advaitic orthodoxy because it is based on the birth entity, which is the false self within the illusory world.
Advaitic wisdom is an advanced seeker who seeks to know the truth hidden by the illusory form, time, and space.
People are unaware of the fact that religion and yoga are dualistic. Dualistic knowledge is the prison for the Soul, the Self.
Dualistic knowledge is meant for the ignorant populace, which is incapable of grasping the ‘Self’, which is hidden by the dualistic illusion.
Lord Krishna confesses that the oldest wisdom of India (Advaitic wisdom) has been lost: people misinterpret and falsify it today as they did then. It is not yoga but the philosophic truth. But nobody knows it. The teachers of philosophy and leaders of mysticism or religion do not want to inquire into truth and have no time for it. (Gita –Chap- IV-v.2)
In Gita Chap.IV where Lord Krishna says: ~ "This yoga has been lost for ages" The word yoga refers to Gnana yoga, not other yogas: the force of the word this is to point this out.
Lord Krishna describes some of the other yogas but devotes this chapter separately to Gnana yoga. So, one sees even in those ancient days people did not care for Advaita; they wanted religion; hence Gnana got lost. That is why Krishna calls it "the supreme secret." Krishna points out that the yoga must see "Brahman in action."
Advaitic wisdom helps the seeker to see the ‘Self’ hidden by the dualistic illusion as it is in the midst of the dualistic illusion.
Advaitic Truth is very simple. It is very difficult to realize because it is lost in the dualistic knowledge we inherited, collected from different sources, different masters’ different gurus, different philosophies, different ideologies, different books, and scriptures. All this accumulated knowledge is a mountain of mental Garbage.
Nothing is needed other than realizing the knowledge of the single stuff. The single stuff is the cause of the world in which we exist. And that single stuff itself is causeless. That single stuff is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.
The Soul is the innermost Self. Knowledge of the Soul, the innermost Self, is Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana. Atma Gnana is knowledge of God. Realizing God in this very life is your goal. God- realization is real worship.
A perfect understanding of ‘what is what’ is needed. Only an intense urge to know the truth, humility sincerity, and patience are the only qualifications to realize God in this very life and in this very world.
All your religious-based accumulated knowledge will block you from realizing the truth, which is beyond form, time, and space. Be more rational in your thinking.
Your religious conditioning will not allow you to cross the domain of the ‘I’. Till you hold all the religious ideas the Soul will remain in the cage of ignorance.
Drop your entire accumulated knowledge drop all the physical Gurus, the Soul the inner Guru, is waiting for you to take the first step for you to realize there are no more steps.
You will realize you; your body and your experience of the world are nothing but consciousness.
Thus, you will realize the invisible Soul is God in truth. God in truth is the fullness of consciousness. Everything is God in truth nothing but God in truth. Do not waste time attending sermons and Satsang.
Real Satsanga is to mentally reflect on the invisible Soul, which is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth.
All my writings are an inner revelation to show the truth hidden under the garbage of religion and theories, beliefs, and ideology. There is no need to condemn religion, theories, beliefs, and ideology, but the seeker’s aim is to drop what is not truth and accept only the truth beyond form, time, and space. Whatever belongs to form, time, and space, is not the truth because the nature of the invisible Soul is the formless
Many people quote Advaita without understanding it really in its highest aspect. They declare themselves as Gnanis, but their knowledge is really mysticism.
There is no hope for those who call themselves realists because they are unwilling to make inquiries into what is real. The true seeker of truth analyses and inquires not relying on first impressions, and hence he is fit for the path of Advaitic wisdom.
They have to know that what they are saying is true. There are so many conflicting teachings by many Gurus, that one gets confused as to which are true. They will be unable to prove because they do not know the proper test of truth, they preach what is written is books with their own interpretation without verifying them.
There is no hope for those who call themselves realists because they are unwilling to make inquiries into what is real. The true seeker of truth analyses and inquires, not relying on first impressions, and hence he is fit for the path of Advaitic wisdom.
Why start with assuming that anything he knows is true? Many things he regards many things unconsciously as true because he enjoys them or is pleased or satisfied with them. But without verification, nothing has to be accepted as truth. Advaitic wisdom gives uncontradictable truth which is the rational truth, scientific truth, and ultimate truth.
To realize the Advaitic truth is the seeker's aim, which is quite different from the opinions of dualistic egocentric schools.
Advaitic truth is Soulcentric truth and uncontradictable truth. All the various views are mere opinions and have nothing to do with the ascertainment of the ultimate truth, which is beyond the experience of birth, life, death, and the world.
In the Advaitic path, the seeker of truth has to analyze the whole world; and think consistently about it. He has to exercise his thinking faculty and inquire continually; discrimination is essential; this practice is the only way to grasp Advaitic truth.
Gnana is that knowledge, knowing which everything else becomes known. Truth can be known by its being impossible of contradiction, and depending entirely on what is not the self. The seeker of truth has to go to the very root of things. He rejects everything untrue by Soulcentric reasoning.: ~ Santthosh Kumaar
