Do not search the ‘Self is in the spiritual junkyard in India or elsewhere in the world.+

Do not search for the ‘Self' in the spiritual junkyard in India or elsewhere in the world. Do not become part of the dualistic junkyard you will not find the Advaitic treasure hidden by the Sage Sankara.

All your accumulated junk accumulated from different Gurus and their junk will make you the prisoner of the dualistic junkyard.

The Advaitic treasure is hidden by the universe like fragrance in the flower; Musk lies within the Musk-deer yet seeks it afar."

Until one traces the hidden treasure, the illusory experience of birth, life, death, and the world is experienced as a reality

Dattatreya's Song of the Avadhut 1.36-42:~ Non-duality is taught by some; some others teach duality. They don't understand that the all-pervading Reality is beyond both duality and non-duality.

The self-styled Gurus talk of ripeness and effort of destiny and grace; all these are playing with the emotions and sentiments of the seekers.

Emotionally and sentimentally addicted seekers become victims of these Gurus and their teachings. Instead of helping the seeker, they obstruct.

Do not stick to the Gurus and their teachings but stick to the truth. Advaitic wisdom is not any type of teaching. no guru is required to acquire it.

Advaitic wisdom is a treasure hidden by Sage Sankara 1200 years back. Every seeker is qualified for the treasure if he is serious and sincere in his quest for truth.

Do not get stuck with Gurus and teachers who preach Advaita their propagated wisdom is only skin deep and inadequate and useless to unfold the Advaitic treasure of Sage Sankara.

Remember Sage Sankara is the final authority in Advaita. There is no Advaitic wisdom without Sage Sankara.

Unless you forget all your accumulated knowledge of different gurus you will never be able to find the reassure hidden by the great sage.

If you are following and any Guru or his teaching, however, holy or sacred is the Guru it will become a great obstacle to the realization of truth.

Advaitic wisdom is not A marketable commodity only by self-discovery you will find it.

That is why Swami Vivekananda said: ~ “You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, none can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher, but your own Soul.”

That is why Bhagavan Buddha said: ~ “Believe nothing because a wise man said it, Believe nothing because it is generally held. Believe nothing because it is written. Believe nothing because it is said to be divine. Believe nothing because someone else said it. But believe only what you, yourself judge to be true

The wisdom consists in knowing the truth, that everything (mind or physical existence) is consciousness. Freedom (ultimate truth) is always there yet one does not know it. But to those whose reason is turned away from physicality and who have attained the serenity of the Soul, the Self is quite near to realizing the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth.

Ashtavakra: ~ Diamonds are not many; only pebbles and rocks are so common. A single diamond is enough.

Bhagavan Buddha: - There are only two mistakes one can make along the road to truth: not going all the way... and not starting

The Advaitic wisdom hidden by the Sages of truth imparted only to a few who were capable of grasping it. In time the Advaitic truth was lost and forgotten in the garbage of religion, philosophies, and yoga.

That is why Lord Krishna confesses that the oldest wisdom of India (Advaitic wisdom) has been lost: people misinterpret and falsify it today as they did then. It is not yoga but the philosophic truth. But nobody knows it. The teachers of philosophy and leaders of mysticism or religion do not want to inquire into truth and have no time for it. (Gita –Chap- IV-v.2)

That is why Sage Sankara says: ~ “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 perverted arguments.

If someone has acquired Self-knowledge and shares his acquired knowledge with others, others cannot say, that there is nothing for them to do. Everyone has to discover a fresh for himself by verifying all the facts. Each one has to grasp assimilate and realize it until he gets a firm conviction of the ultimate truth or Brahman. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
