Sage Sankara's path of wisdom is the path of self-discovery through deeper thinking and reasoning.

Start your mental (inner) journey even you may find it difficult in the first, as you go on reading the post your subconscious will start dropping the dualistic egocentric knowledge and start accepting the Soul-centric Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.

Bhagavad Gita says: ~ Among thousands of men, scarcely one strives for perfection; and of those who strive and succeed, scarcely one knows the ‘Self’ in truth.

The path of wisdom attracts only those who are in search of truth, and they appreciate it greatly. Ignorant are not spiritually matured to receive Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.

The seeker has to find the answers on his own through deeper reasoning, then all his doubts and confusions will be cleared, and he will be able to move ahead in the path of inquiry, and he will be able to reach his non-dual destination.

The ultimate Truth has to be ascertained by the seeker on his own through a well-directed inquiry, analysis, and reasoning based on the true Self, which will lead the seeker to his destination.

In the past, Spirituality or Adyathma was treated not as a separate subject, but as a part of religion, but it is not so.

Religion is based on duality and Spirituality is based on non-duality, Therefore, spirituality is nothing to do with religion.

Spirituality is a rational inquiry regarding all that is known to exist. Everyone, each to the extent to which one's reasoning power admits, is by nature free to exercise this faculty, at whatever stage one may be. One is able to devote himself exclusively to a pursuit of the highest Truth, by means of Soulcentric reason.

Bhagvad Gita: ~ Reason as a means to reality. (Chap.18 verse 37)

In chap. 10 of in Bhagvad Gita, Krishna says: ~ I cannot save you, but I can give you Buddhi (reason). (chap. 10)

In chap. 10 of in Bhagvad Gita, Krishna says: ~ "I have given you the most secret teaching, now reflect over it all" Krishna plainly says reflect, think. (Verse 63 of Chap. 18)

Mundaka Upanishad says: ~ ‘Both states are harmful and take you away from the path of inquiry into truth. (Page 234)

Ashtavakra Gita: ~ It is not the absence of Buddhi (Reason) that can grasp Advaita, but the man who possesses the highest intellect. Brains are necessary. Such a man, by merely hearing the truth mentioned, will know it. (Page~ 224)

As you cross the ‘I’ and get to the other side and once you are on the other side of the ‘I’ is the reality, which beyond the form, time and space.

You will realize that the ‘I’ is an illusion. Self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana is nothing to do with the ‘I-centric Gurus and their teaching.

Remember :~

The ‘I’ is not an individual because the ‘I’ is the whole universe.

Limiting the ‘I’ to individuality is the cause of experiencing the dualistic illusion as reality?

The nature of the ‘I’ is the nature of the mind.

The nature of the mind is the nature of the universe.

The nature of the universe is the nature of the waking.

The nature of waking is the nature of the illusion.

Thus, it is necessary to study the nature of the ‘I’ to unfold the mystery of the universe.

All the teachings which limit the ‘I’ to an individual and glorify the ‘I’ without knowing what this ‘I’ supped to be in actuality.

All ‘I-centric' teachings are inadequate and useless for the serious seeker of truth.

If you are seeking truth nothing but the truth, then you must discard the 'I-centric teachings without mercy in order to progress in your spiritual quest.

The seeker must know the ‘I’ is not limited to individuality. The seeker has to see the ‘I’ as the universe, in order to overcome ignorance.

When the Advaitic wisdom dawns, then ignorance vanishes. When ignorance vanishes and the dualistic illusion (world) you used to think as reality becomes unreal. : ~Santthosh Kumaar
