All the yogic and mystic experiences are a reality on the base of waking entity. The Self is not the waking entity, thus whatever experienced on the waking entity is bound to be falsehood because the waking entity is the false self (ego) within the false experience (waking).
Ashtavakra says: - "This is your bondage, that you practice Samadhi or meditation.”
Remaining thoughtless in the waking experience is yogic Samadhi. Yogic Samadhi is not the Advaitic wisdom.
Brih Upanishad: page 32. "Yoga does not yield truth or liberation."
One who is in Samadhi will not know that this universe as consciousness; therefore yoga is not the means to Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.
In Samadhi the yogi knows nothing, sees no universe; so if there is nothing but blankness. The blankness is not the Advaitic wisdom.
The yogi does not know the nature of the universe. If the universe is not seen in the Samadhi then there is no need to use the word Atman and Brahman. The yogi is unaware of the truth, which is beyond the form, time and space.
By shutting his eyes in Samadhi, the yogi does not know the universe, which confronts him. Hence, the universe can't be known as the Soul or the consciousness through yoga.
One is in a non-dual condition in deep sleep or Samadhi, One without a second, true, but he did not know it at the time. He says only in the waking experience afterward. Hence, there must be the inquiry so that you find non-duality whilst you are awake so that you can see nonduality at the time, not afterward. Hence, the need of inquiring into the nature of the universe and knowing it as the Soul or consciousness whilst one is awake, and not during sleep or Samadhi.
Advaitic truth is the ultimate truth. Yogis, mystics and religious teachers do not accept Advaitic wisdom because it pries into the truth, the source and the validity of the knowledge they claim. Therefore, it is the most difficult part of the study of the Advaita.
No yogi can claim to teach the highest truth because yoga is dualistic. No mystic till now cured mankind of the madness of war, terrorism, or averted any calamity in the world with his mystical power?
Yoga is closely allied to religion. Yoga helps to remove the physical and mental stress, which is an unquestionable fact. Many people believe that yoga helps to make contact with the Highest Being or the Absolute.
This they support by the fact that at the height of enjoyment in yogic samadhi one becomes unconscious. All this is true from the dualistic standpoint, but they are unaware of the fact that the yogic samadhi is not Advaitic wisdom.
No yogi in the past and present prevent from happening wars, violence, terrorism, which is going on in the name of religion and religious Gods or averted any calamity in the world with his yogic power. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
