Manduka Upanishad shows how one opinion may be used to contradict another, so that both may be thrown away. Opinions are not for philosophy.
All opinions belong to the domain of the duality. The dualistic opinions are nothing to do with the ultimate truth or Brahman. No use for opinions and arguments in pursuit of truth.
One has to stick to the truth and be aware e of everything that is untrue. By sticking to the truth and one will succeed, maybe slowly, but surely.
It is necessary of repeating the same truth again and again till it becomes reality. One needs to constantly reflect on the subject until he gets a firm conviction of what is what. The words are needed until one gets a firm conviction of ‘what is what’.
People need to read and to hear the words of wisdom, think deeply and reach the ultimate end.
The seeker has to take the direct path and avoid losing precious time and effort, loosing himself to philosophical studies.
One should not become attached to words as being in perfect conformity with meaning because Truth is not in the letters. When a man with his fingertip points to something, the fingertip may be mistaken for the thing pointed at; in like manner the ignorant, are unable even to the day of their death to abandon the idea that in the fingertip of words there is the meaning itself’. They cannot realize ultimate reality because of their intent, clinging to words which were intended to be no more than a pointing finger.
The words and their discrimination bind one to the duality, and meaning stands alone and is a guide to Advaitic freedom. Meaning is attained by much learning, and much learning is attained by becoming conversant with meaning and not with words; therefore, seekers of truth have to avoid the sticklers for particular words."
The words are used for communication purposes. From the non-dualistic perspective, the words are meaningless. The words are only used within the dualistic illusion to indicate the truth, which is beyond form, time, and space.
Any word one may utter is, after all, they are the words and words that have meaning only within the illusory universe or Maya.
Blind acceptance anything as truth without proper inquiry will result only in ignorance in something which is detrimental to spiritual progress.
The seeker of truth should not become attached to words as being in perfect conformity with meaning because Truth is not in the letters. The words may give different meaning at a different level of understanding.
We contemplate that reality in which everything exists, to which everything belongs, from which everything has emerged, which is the cause of everything is and which is everything.
I just write what is revealed from the inner core. My main intention is to divert their attention to the source, from where the mind (universe) rises and subsides.
By reading my blogs and posts, gradually the seekers will start assimilation ‘what is truth and what is the untruth.
Repeated reading my blogs makes the seeker Soul centric and the inner dialogue will start and clear all the doubts and confusion.
When there is no doubts and confusion, then they have realized the truth that the form, time, and space are one in essence. And that essence is consciousness.
There is no use in wasting time in questioning and arguing. Same time and effort have to be used to understand and assimilate and realize the truth, which is beyond the form, time, and space. .” ~Santthosh Kumaar
