Without Athma there is no nonduality. Buddhist fail to recognize the emptiness is the nature of the Athma, the 'Self'.+

 

Buddhism has not proved the truth of Nonduality because they do not believe in the existence of Athma they believed in emptiness. Without Athma there is no nonduality. Buddhist fail to recognize the emptiness is the nature of the Athma, the 'Self'.

Dalai Lama said: ~ Buddhism need not be the best religion though it is most scientific and religion and inquisitive. But Buddhism has no answer to certain questions like the existence of Atama (Soul) and rebirth. Dali Lama said that as an individual he believes in rebirth as he had come across a few cases of rebirth. Modern science, Dalai Lama hoped would unearth the mystery behind the rebirth.

Bhagavan Buddha pointed out the unreality of the world, we agree. He told people they were foolish to cling to it. But he stopped there. He came nearest to Vedanta in speech but not to Vedanta fully.

Only when we independently search for the truth without religion and its doctrine then we will be able to realize the truth which is hidden by the illusory form, time, and space.

Whatever is based on religion is bound to be dualistic. From Maharishi Dayananda Saraswathi of Arya Samaj, propagator of ancient Vedic religion existed prior to Buddhism and Jainism.

Hinduism propagates non-Vedic beliefs such as idolatry, ancestor worship, pilgrimages, priestcraft, offerings made in temples, the caste system, untouchability, and child marriages. All these lack Vedic sanctions, therefore, Hinduism is not Ancient Vedic religion or Santana Dharma.

There are many groups within Hinduism that claim a sort of "going back to the Vedas. While these groups are attempting to create a bond with the Vedas, they will never be followers of the Vedic religion while they still hold their core ideals.

These core beliefs are at odds with those of the Vedas. Many followers of Hinduism do translate the Vedas to fit into Hindu thought by changing the translation to reflect the beliefs of monism, reincarnation, the caste system, and the absence of animal and human sacrifice.

Dualist Gurus say God cannot exist without attributes. Then they are making God as an object whereas God is the subject. Attributes can only be seen in the objective world. Causality appears in the duality, but when one goes deeper into the matter even there the causality disappears.

Who else but the ‘Self’ could have imagined the objective world? Ramanuja and Madva see God as the imaginer, but where is the proof. Nobody has seen God creating. You have seen no other creator, whether God or angel. The only ‘Self’ is left. Therefore ‘Self’ is the creator because imagining means creating.

The Dvaita and Religionists talk nonsense. Has God meant to you? Yes. It is an idea. What is the idea? The Idea is an imagination. So God has no proved existence beyond that of the idea.

Where people cannot and do not think, they follow others. A Gnani will see the world and get to know it is the only appearance. He is not blind; he sees three states or objects as it is, but he knows it is only a falsehood.

Just as you see a mirage, the Gnani sees the mirage of this universe too; but he is not deceived by it. So long as one is ignorant, he will have the idea that God has created this world because the causal notion will be there.

Nobody wants to suffer, and while the notion that suffering can be got rid of by appealing to God, these wishes will sway the mind to believe in God. For them, religion will arise, but for the man who wants the truth, religion offers no consolation.

Anybody can write a commentary on the Upanishad's other scriptures and other scriptures, all they need to do to pour out with or mental word words. It is quite easy to do this even by those who have never understood the Upanishads and but think they have. Thus the dualists and their disciples have written commentaries on scriptures: But all these have written to satisfy themselves, not to get the ultimate truth or Brahman.

Religion is regarded as sacred and real by the common people, by the wise as false, and by the political class as useful.

As one goes deeper into the annals of history he becomes aware of the fact that the so-called present Hinduism has adopted many things from Buddhism, the religion of Abraham, Jainism, and Islam. If one goes deeper enough he will become aware everything is mixed up and messed up in time.

No one is taken pains to rectify it because; because people have been inherited them, from their ancestors and they think it is blasphemy even to hear anything against their inherited religion and belief.

Once one gets involved with the religious class it is the end of the pursuit of truth. The theistic (orthodoxy) Advaita is based on a dualistic perspective but Advaita wisdom bifurcated from the theistic(dualistic) perspective is the real Advaita(nondualistic) propagated by Sage Sankara. : ~ Santthosh Kumaar
