Having food or no food, Having sex or no sex, wearing clothes, or being naked does not qualify you to get self-knowledge or Brahma Gnana or Atma Gnana.
Know the mystery of the ‘I’. Come out of the intoxication of the ‘I’. Till you remain in the grip of the ‘I’, you are blocked from realizing the truth, which is hidden by the ‘I’.
The ‘I’ hides the truth of the whole. The realization of ultimate truth or Brahman is possible only when the seeker inquiries into the nature of the ‘I’. The ‘I’ is present in the form of the mind.
The mind is present in the form of the universe and the universe appears as waking or dream (duality) and disappears as deep sleep (non-duality).
The one that appears as the duality and disappears as nonduality is the Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness.
Do not try to know who you are. By inquiring ‘Who am ‘I’, you will never reach the ultimate end of understanding.
‘Who am ‘I’? is only helpful in the beginning but in later stages, it is inadequate to realize the truth, which is hidden by the illusory form, time, and space.
Try to find out what is this ‘I’ which appears and disappears. What is it that knows this appearance and disappearance of the ‘I’?
Bhagavad Gita: ~ The permanent is always there, only the transient ‘I’ comes and goes. (2.18)
That is why Ashtavakra Gita 16:10:~ If you desire liberation, but you still say 'I', if you feel the ‘Self’ is the ‘I’, you are not a wise man or a seeker. You are simply a man who suffers. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
