A Gnani is neither anyone’s guru nor anyone’s disciple. A Gnani respects all the Sages of the past and he highlights good points in their teaching he also highlights how their wisdom obstacles, block the realization of the ultimate truth.
A Gnani does not transmit Gnana but he shares the pointers to realize the truth. These pointers help the seekers to realize the truth, which is hidden by ignorance.
There is no need for a guru to know that you and your guru and the world in which you exist are created out of a single stuff and that single stuff is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. Knowledge of that single stuff is the Self-knowledge of Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana. Gnana is given neither from outside nor from another person.
There is no need to follow anyone. There is no need to practice anything. Perfect understanding and assimilation of ‘what is what’, leads to the realization of the truth, which is beyond the form, time, and space.
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)
~ then why stick to a Guru who is not a Gnani.
Sage Sankara says: ~ there is no need to study the Scriptures, to realize the ultimate truth or Brahman
~ then why indulge in studying the scriptures.
Sage Sankara says: ~ there is no need to study philosophy, to realize the ultimate truth or Brahman
~then why indulge in studying philosophies.
Sage Sankara says: ~ there is no need to indulge in rituals, to realize the ultimate truth or Brahman
~then why indulge in rituals.
Sage Sankara says: ~ there is no need to indulge in yoga, to realize the ultimate truth or Brahman
~then why indulge in yoga.
Sage Sankara says: ~ “The exercise in discrimination between real and unreal and renunciation of the false is real meditation, then why you are indulging in other types of meditation.
There is nothing to realize other than realizing that, you and the world in which you exist are created out of a single stuff and that single stuff is the Soul, the Self. The Soul is present in the form of consciousness.
Thus, you and the world in which you exist are nothing but consciousness. Thus, by realizing this truth the Soul becomes free from the cage of the illusory form, time, and space. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
