Those who come to India to search truth must know the truth they are seeking for is not available in the Himalayas or Ashrams or with any Gurus or yogis, but it is hidden by the world in which they exist. All the path and practices available in India are not meant for those who are seriously seeking the truth of their true existence.
Sage Sankara says: ~ Atman is Brahman. The Atman alone is real is not religious truth. Sage Sri, Sankara declared this Advaitic truth, which the ultimate truth to the whole world, many centuries back is the rational truth, scientific truth, and ultimate truth
Thus, the Atman which is present in the form of the consciousness is real and eternal, the world in which we exist is mere an illusion
Sage Sankara already declared ‘what is truth’ and ‘what is untruth’.
Atman is Brahman ~ “That is the Soul, the ‘Self’ is the ultimate truth”.
The world is unreal ~ The unreal hides the truth because the world is created out of the real.
Sage Sankara: ~ VC 65. As a treasure hidden underground requires (for its extraction) competent instruction, excavation, the removal of stones and other such things lying above it and (finally) grasping, but never comes out by being (merely) called out by name, so the transparent Truth of the Self, which is hidden by Maya and its effects, is to be attained through the instructions of a knower of Brahman, followed by reflection, meditation and so forth, but not through perverted arguments.
Sage Sankara:~ VC~ 63. Without causing the objective universe to vanish and without knowing the truth of the ‘Self’ how is one to achieve Liberation by the mere utterance of the word Brahman? — It would result merely in an effort of speech.
Atman which is present in the form of the consciousness is real and eternal, the world in which we exist is mere an illusion.
Sage Sankara says the transparent Truth of the Self, which is hidden by the illusion, is to be attained through the instructions of a knower of Brahman, (Gnani).
Remember:~
Your quest is over. You need not search for the truth. Sage Sankara has already declared 'what is the ultimate truth' and 'what is the untruth'. His declaration is final. There is no need to follow anyone or any teaching.
