Bhagavad Gita Krishna says: ~ It is only the rare person who gets to know the Self correctly.+

People think if one inquires ‘WHO AM ‘I? ’ then ‘I’ disappears.

How can the ‘I’ disappear?

The ‘I’ is the basis of the world in which you exist. Without the ‘I’ the world in which you exist ceases to exist.

If 'I' disappears the universe along with you disappears because 'I' is the whole universe, then who is there to say 'I' disappeared. Such a statement is only half-baked knowledge.

The world has appeared along with ‘I’ and disappears along with the ‘I’. Just because some gurus propagated and glorified the ‘I’ does not mean it is final.

That is why Bhagavan Buddha said: ~ “Believe nothing because a wise man said it, Believe nothing because it is generally held. Believe nothing because it is written. Believe nothing because it is said to be divine. Believe nothing because someone else said it. But believe only what you, yourself, judge to be true.

Bhagavad Gita Krishna says: ~It is only one amongst thousands of people who strive for spiritual salvation. Even amongst such seekers, it is only the rare person who gets to know the Self correctly.’ (7.3)

There is no second thing that exists prior to consciousness. The ‘I’ ceases to exist without consciousness. The invisible and unborn Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness, is the ultimate truth or Brahman.

That is why Bhagavad Gita: ~ “The permanent (consciousness) is always there, only the transient ‘I’ comes and goes. (2.18)

Discard the ‘I’ as illusory by realizing the Self is not the ‘I but the invisible Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.

Rest in consciousness by realizing the world in which you exist is nothing but an illusion created out of consciousness.

The invisible Soul is fullness of consciousness without illusory division of form, time, and space.

Thus, consciousness alone is real and eternal; all else is merely an illusion created out of consciousness. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
