Come ye slow, or come ye fast; it is but the invisible Soul, the Self, which is Advaita that reveals itself at last.
The path of wisdom is divided into three parts:~
First: hearing the truth--that the consciousness is the only reality and that the universe along with you is merely an illusion or Maya.
Third: giving up all further argumentation and realizing the truth.
This realization comes from being certain that consciousness is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth.
The pursuit of truth is a mental journey. Deeper self-search makes one aware of ‘what truth’ is and what is untruth’.
Katha Upanishad: ~ ‘This Atman cannot be attained by the study of the Vedas, or by intelligence, or by much hearing of sacred books. It is attained by him alone whom It chooses. To such a one, Atman reveals its own form. (Katha Upanishad Ch-II -23-P-20)
It is very difficult to talk to people about the ultimate truth or Brahman because everyone thinks he knows the ultimate truth or Brahman.
This- I know business is dangerous. Whatever his reached conclusion is second-hand stuff. Therefore, accepting accumulated knowledge without verification will lead the seekers to hallucinated realization based on the ego.
One may have some flashes of truth when someone tries to indicate it through fewer words. But it takes nearer to truth, not realization.
Upanishad's say: ~ "He who thinks he knows, does not know." This means that to know anything implies a second, an object of knowledge, hence duality, i.e., no Gnana.
Tripura Rahasya: ~ Second-hand knowledge of the Self gathered from books or Gurus can never emancipate a man until its truth is rightly investigated and applied; only direct realization will do that. ~ (18: 89)
The seeker has to reflect constantly on the truth, which is hidden by the illusory form, time, and space until he gets a firm conviction.
When one gets a firm conviction of ‘what is the truth then the subconscious will reject the untruth. Whatever prevails after rejecting the untruth is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth.
Upanishads: ~ Fools dwelling in darkness, but thinking themselves wise and erudite, go round and round, by various tortuous paths, like the blind led by the blind. (Upanishads Nikilanada - Ch II-5 P-14)
Remember:~
Rig Veda: ~ 'Prajnanam Brahma'- Consciousness is the ultimate reality or Brahman or God in truth.
Do not accept any other God other than the Athma. The Athma is God in truth. Nothing is real but the Athma, which is present in the form of consciousness. Nothing matters but realizing God in truth. God in truth is everywhere and in everything. Let these words be inscribed in your subconscious.
God in truth is hidden by the illusory universe. God in truth alone is real and eternal and all else is an illusion.
Brahman is merely a word to indicate the ultimate truth or God in truth. The ultimate truth itself is God in truth. :~Santthosh Kumaar
