Ignorance is the cause of experiencing birth, life, death, and the world as a reality.
Without ignorance, the invisible Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness alone, prevails as the ultimate reality or Brahman.
The Self is not you, but the Self is the invisible Soul. The invisible Soul, the Self, is immortal, and you are mortal.
If the invisible Soul is free from ignorance, then it is free from experiencing the dualistic illusion as a reality.
The dream becomes unreal when the waking takes the palace. Similarly, the waking (the world in which we exist) becomes unreal when the invisible Soul, the Self, wakes up from its sleep of ignorance.
The invisible Soul wakes up from its sleep of ignorance when you have a firm conviction that the Self is not you, but the Self is the invisible Soul.
There is no meaning of life from the standpoint of the invisible Soul, the Self, because the world, in which you exist, is merely an illusion created out of the invisible Soul, which is present in the form of consciousness. The one that is born, lives, and dies is not the Self.
You are bound by birth, life, and death, so you are not the Self because the Self is the invisible and unborn Soul, which is birthless and deathless. After all, it is the ever-formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.
Only the false self (ego or you) thinks there is a meaning of life within the dualistic illusion because of ignorance. Without the invisible Soul, the world in which we exist ceases to exist.
The invisible Soul, which is the cause of the dualistic illusion (the world in which we exist), is itself uncaused.
The invisible Soul is the only reality that is the basis of our illusory existence, in which we experience our birth, life, death, and the world as a reality.
The birth, life-death, and the world are part of the waking experience, which is merely an illusion from the standpoint of the invisible Soul, the Self.
It is no use in saying that we are not born, we do not die, because we all were born and we all are going to die. However, birth, life, death, and the world are part of the illusion, which comes and goes as the waking experience.
The formless substance and witness of the three states is real, which is our true identity. The invisible Soul, the Self which is in the form of consciousness, has no birth and death.
When there is no scope for two in reality. Only from the dualistic perspective, there is meaning in life. From a non-dualistic perspective, life is meaningful: ~Santthosh Kumaar
