God in truth is universal because God is impersonal. God in truth does not belong to any religion because religious Gods are based on blind faith or belief.
How can you see God without knowing what God is in actuality? When the ‘Self not you, how can you find God within you? God is not within you. Those who say God is within you just propagating half-baked knowledge.
First, realize the ‘Self is not within you. You are bound by the experience of the birth, life, death, and the world whereas the ‘Self is birthless and deathless because it is ever formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.
The Soul is the Self. The Soul is present in the form of consciousness. Consciousness is the cause of the world in which you exist, and it itself is uncaused. Consciousness is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth.
From the standpoint of the Soul, the Self, the world in which you exist is merely an illusion. Thus, the world in which exists hides the Soul, which is real God.
Till you think the ‘Soul, the Self’ is within you, you will never be able to realize God. God is not limited to you, but it pervades in everything and everywhere in the world in which you exist.
Yajurveda – chapter- 32:~ God is Supreme or Supreme Spirit.
Bible says: ~ “God is a Spirit, and they that worship God must worship God in spirit and in truth. (John 4:24),
The Spirit is the root element of the universe. The Spirit is present in the form of the Soul, the Self. The Soul is present in the form of consciousness. From the Spirit, the universe comes into existence. In the Spirit, the universe resides. And into the Spirit, the universe is dissolved. The Spirit is the parent of all that is there is.
There is no God but God. There is no God because the world in which we exist is merely an illusion created out of God in truth, which is the Spirit. Call it with any name, God in truth is universal. God in truth belongs to the whole of humanity.
Religion creates separation, God in truth is unity in diversity. God in truth is one which, the cause of the whole world in which humanity exists. The world in which we exist is an illusion created out of Consciousness, which God in truth.
God in truth is the cause of the world, is real and eternal. God in truth alone is real and all else is an illusion. There is a second thing that exists other than the Spirit, which is God in truth. God in truth is Advaita.
Religion belongs to you. The religious God belongs to you. All religious code of conduct belongs to you But remember you belong to the dualistic illusion because the world in which you exist is an illusion created out of the Spirit, which is God in truth.
God in truth is present in the form of the Spirit. The Spirit is present in the form of the Soul. The Soul is present in the form of consciousness.
God is divine, only held in the bondage of the ignorance (matter); perfection will be reached when this bond will burst, and the word they use for it is, therefore, freedom, freedom from the bonds of imperfection, freedom from ignorance.
Realize what God suppose to be in truth.
Religious Gods are based on blind beliefs. God based on blind belief is not God in truth. Religious God cannot be considered as the cause of the universe because the Soul, the ‘Self’ is the cause of the universe.
Without the Soul the universe in which you exist ceases to exist, it means the religious God is dependent on the Soul for his existence. God in truth is only the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.
Even Bhagavad Gita says: ~ ‘Brahmano hi pratisthaham’ ~ Brahman (God un truth) is considered the all-pervading consciousness, which is the basis of all the animate and inanimate entities and material. (14.27).
When Bhagavad Gita says, God is considered the all-pervading consciousness which is the basis of all the animate and inanimate entities and material then nothing has to be accepted as God other than consciousness.
Even Brihadaranyaka Upanishad: ~ Brahman (God in truth) is present in the form of the Athma, and it is indeed Athma itself.
Religious Gods are mere beliefs. Religious God cannot be considered as a center because the Soul, the innermost ‘Self’ is the center of all that exists. Without the Soul the world in which you exist ceases to exist, it means the religious God is dependent on the Soul for his existence.
Even 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?" (10:48, 5)
Brihadaranyaka Upanishad says:~ "He who worships the deities as entities entirely separate from him does not know the truth. For the Gods, he is like a pasu (beast)". (1. 4. 10)
No mantras help to get rid of ignorance. All the mantras and rituals are meant for the ignorant populace, which strongly believes, the world in which he exists as a reality. For one who wants to acquire Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana, the mantas will not help to realize the truth, which is beyond the form, time, and space.
That is why Sage Sankara:~ VC~.61. For one who has been bitten by the serpent of Ignorance, the only remedy is the knowledge of Brahman. Of what avail are the Vedas and (other) Scriptures, Mantras (sacred formulae), and medicines to such a one?
VC- v6~ Let erudite scholars quote all the scripture, let Gods be invoked through sacrifices, let elaborate rituals be performed, let personal Gods be propitiated---yet, without the realization of one’s identity With the Self, there shall be no liberation for the individual, not even in the lifetimes of a hundred Brahmas put together
Sage Sankara goes on to say: ~A sickness of not cured by saying the word “medicine.” You must take the medicine. Liberation does not come by merely saying the word “Brahman (God).” Brahman must be realized. Until you allow this apparent universe to dissolve from your consciousness until you have realized Brahman, how can you find liberation just by saying the word Brahman? The result is merely noise. Until a man has destroyed his enemies and taken possession of the splendor and wealth of the kingdom, he cannot become a king by simply saying, “I am a king.”
A buried treasure is not uncovered by merely uttering the words: “Come forth.” You must follow the right directions, dig, remove the stones and earth from above it, and then make it your own. In the same way, the pure truth of the Atman, which is buried under Maya and the effects of Maya, can be reached by meditation, contemplation, and other spiritual disciplines, but never by subtle arguments.
Sage Sankara’s Supreme Brahman is impersonal, Nirguna (without Gunas or attributes), Nirakara (formless), Nirvisesha (without special characteristics), immutable, eternal, and Akarta (non-agent). It is above all needs and desires. It is always the Witnessing Subject. It can never become an object, as it is beyond the reach of the senses. Brahman is non-dual, one without a second. It has no other beside it. It is destitute of difference, either external or internal. Brahman cannot be described because the description implies a distinction. Brahman cannot be distinguished from any other than It. In Brahman, there is not a distinction between substance and attribute. Sat-Chit-Ananda constitutes the very essence or Svarupa of Brahman and not just Its attributes. The Nirguna Brahman of Sage Sankara is impersonal.
Advaita is the nature of the Soul, the Self. Advaita is the Soul itself. Advaita is the Soul, God. Advaita is another word for God, which is second to none. Advaita is the nature of the Soul, the Self. Advaita is the Soul itself. Advaita is the Soul, God. Advaita is another word for God, which is second to none. :~Santthosh Kumaar
