You are the enjoyer and sufferer. The Soul, the ‘Self’ is nothing to do with you, your enjoyment, and suffering.+

The ‘Self ‘is not you. You are the enjoyer and sufferer. The Soul, the ‘Self’ has nothing to do with you, your enjoyment, and suffering. You are the false self within the false experience (waking).

If you are the false self within the false experience, then your enjoyment and suffering are also a falsehood.

The Soul, the self has nothing to do with you, your enjoyment, and suffering because the Soul, the Self is ever formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.

Enjoyment is possible only in the realm of form, time, and space. From the standpoint of the Soul, the Self the form, time, and space are merely an illusion.

In the realm of the Soul, the Self, the form, time, and space are one in essence. Therefore, in  Atmic reality, there is no second thing that exists other than the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. Thus,  consciousness alone is real and all else is merely an illusion.

Remember:~

The ‘Self’ does not reside in the human heart, and one will not find the ‘Self’ in the human heart if he searches for it.

The Self is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. Consciousness pervades everything and everywhere in the world in which we exist.

Limiting the ‘Self’ to the human heart is erroneous. The truth is not a belief propagated by the belief system.

Tattireya Upanishad: ~ “The Self in man and in the sun is one. Those who understand this see through the world and go beyond the various sheaths of being to realize the unity of life”.

Holding the ‘I’ as the ‘Self’ is the main mistake. People refuse to rectify the mistake because they are sentimentally attached to their Gurus and their teaching. Such people are like stagnant water in a dirty pond. Rectifying the mistake will unfold the mystery of the whole world.

The sun is simply bright. It does not correct anyone. Because it shines, the whole world is full of light. The Soul is the fullness of consciousness. The universe exists because of the Soul.

Without the universe, the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness, alone exists. The universe is merely an illusion created out of consciousness.

Realize that consciousness is the cause of the universe and it, itself, is uncaused.

Ashtavakra Gita: ~ “The universe rises from the ‘Self’ like bubbles from the sea. Thus, know the Self to be One, and in this way enter into the state of dissolution."

Rig Veda: ~ The Atman is the cause; Atman is the support of all that exists in this universe. May ye never turn away from the Atman, the Self. May ye never accept another God in place of the Atman, nor worship other than the Atman?"

Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana frees the Soul from the cage of the illusory form, time, and space.

Due to ignorance, the Soul, the Self, is in forgetfulness of its own true nature in the dualistic illusion.

When the Soul wakes up from its sleep of ignorance, the unreal nature of the world, in which you exist, is exposed.: ~ Santthosh Kumaar
