Non Duality The True Philosophy One Must Follow

By Alxa Robin


Non duality means 'not two' or 'being one' in Sanskrit non duality is known as being Advaita. Everything that we know in this world has being a product of something that is of a non-dual desires. Advaita or non-duality is simply basic quality of being one and that this quality is a part of everything. People very often tend to react on non-duality, because when everything is considered to being one then why everyone doesn't experiences the same. This makes Advaita a bit confusing as every individual doesn't look the same.

Non duality is an experience which tells us that there is no separation between the subject and the object. Advaita or non-dualism is not an actual religion but a belief. Being simple, you are connected to the world, as it is god that has created every being in the world; this ensures that everyone is connected to one another through on one creator. Non-duality can be considered as the realisation of our consciousness; it lets us face our true nature, which depicts the revelation of happiness, love and beauty in oneself.

The first Vedanta is the Dvaita otherwise known as Dualistic school, which tells that there are two different or separate realities, the God and the Universe. Universe is the creation of the God, which also include the humans present in the world. Also it tells us that the humans exist below God, making it a lower level of existence. Vishista-Dvaita is the philosophy that depicts qualified monism; here too it says that God is the creator of the universe and everything that exist in the universe however everything that we know was created out of God itself. This simply means that everything has come from one divine origin and thus is a part of God, thought they exist separately.

Everything is connected to a particular source. Likewise you can also consider a candle as an object. When a candle is burned it changes to wax, smoke, ashes and gives of energy in the form of light and heat. Now, when this happens there is only one thing that remains the same, it is the molecules of the candle and the energy, which remains constant. The matter and energy remained in the candle, which was then converted to smoke, ashes and dissipated energy.

Only the God here has the true reality, he or she is known as the Brahman also known as the Oneness. Even for us, our individual consciousness, there is no real or absolute reality that exists between us. The individual identity that we live are relatively real, however it is only the oneness that is real among which lies in the roots of our consciousness.

It sometimes becomes essential to have a spiritual teacher for your self-realization and enlightenment. It is the role of a teacher to teach its disciple and help them in the realisation; however the teacher might look to the disciple as a different individual but the teacher has established its knowledge as universal consciousness.

You might have had a glimpse of non-duality, when you had a sense of experiencing something deep, which has more meaning and something that is beyond the regular you, though it is the actual you.

Being precise, the essence of non-duality is the experience in nature; it may be from music or kind of art, either through work or any hobby, even walking or by having any social interaction. Once you are aware of what non-dualism actually is, you start getting more curious to know more about it. In this pursuit you might get a more meaningful and have the realisation of the real you.
