Advaita is ever present. Dvaita is impermanent. Dvaita appears as ‘I’. The ‘I’ itself is the ignorance. Advaita is the Soul, the Self, which is present in the form of consciousness. Dvaita is the world in which we exist.

Advaita is the reality hidden by the ‘I’. The ‘I’ is the dualistic illusion. The dualistic illusion is present in the form of the mind. The mind is present in the form of the universe. The universe appears as waking or dream (duality) and disappears as deep sleep (nonduality).

Until you discard the ‘I’, which is ignorance you will never be able to realize the Advaita the only reality hidden by the ‘I’, which is present in the form of the form, time, and space.

There is nothing that exist prior to consciousness. The ‘I’ cease to exist without the consciousness. The Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness, is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth.

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

The ‘I’ hides the Soul, the Self, which is present in the form of consciousness.

Bhagavad Gita: ~ “You must first see the ‘I’ as illusory before you see others as illusory. ~ CH.2 v.16

First, you must make sure the ‘I’ itself is illusory because the ‘I’ is not permanent.

The seeker has to find for himself the truth of his true existence and to come to a fuller and deeper understanding and realization of the truth, which is hidden by the illusory form, time, and space.

The purpose of quest for truth is to first find out what is the untruth to realize the truth and discard the untruth.

Do not try to get rid of the ego, you will never succeed in getting rid of the ego. Think in a different direction. The ego exists only in the domain of the form, time, and space.

The form, time, and space exist only when the mind exists.

The mind exists only when the universe exists.

The universe appears only when the waking appears.

The waking appears only when the ‘I’ appears.

Remember

The ‘I’ disappears in deep sleep.

There is no form, time, and space when ‘I’ disappears.

There is no mind when ‘I’ disappears.

There is no universe when the ‘I’ disappears.

There is no waking when the ‘I’ disappears.

Remember

‘I’ appears means the duality appears.

The duality appears means there is the division of form, time and space.

If here is division in the form, time and space means there is diversity in the unity.

Remember ~

When ‘I’ disappears, then there is nonduality.

Nonduality is the fullness of consciousness without the illusory division of the form, time, and space.

The fullness of the consciousness means the unity in diversity.

Unity in diversity in consciousness is Advaita.

Consciously becoming aware of the Soul in the midst of diversity (waking) is Self-awareness or Brahmic awareness.

If you desire Self-realization, but you still say "I,” and if you feel the ‘Self’ is the ‘I’, you are not a wise seeker. You are simply an ignorant. Glorifying ‘I’- centric’ Gurus and their teaching will lead one to hallucinate nothing else. :~Santthosh Kumaar
