The man is always afraid, that his existence in a name and form,

is the individual consciousness in the human body and it always
corresponds to the existence in the physical plane. We have this body
mechanism, metabolic functions, chemical and biological functions,
everything operates in the plane of individual consciousness. This is the

more suited to this purpose of transcendence than the animals. If man
were lacking this transcendence he would still be lurking in darkness in
caves.

phenomena. The result of such experiments is what we are seeing now.
Mans search for GodParticle, Mans seeking of alien life,
mans search for existence in faraway planets like Mars etc.
Even the expansion of communication networks, the internet,
and social media all points out the struggle for expansion of
individual consciousness into universal consciousness in this
materialphenomena.

Themethodwithoutnameandform:

In the direct method, there is no name and form on either side.


Thereisnonameandformonthehumansideandnonameand
form on divine side. What exists is one, the universal
consciousness. According to this reality, the existence of the
world is unreal so is the body and the multitude of objects.
Everything is a grand illusion. There is no emotional

Allrealitiesaretrue:

There are many saints in our country who has attained this state.
Some of them in their writing have even questioned the efficacy of
pilgrimage and ceremonies etc. They say name and form are just
ignorance. There lies the beauty of our religion. Just because a saint
hassaidthatthepilgrimageandworshipofnameandformas
ignorance, we dont form any militant groups and ransack all
the place of pilgrimage and loot temples and destroy idols. We
recognize all kinds of reality to be true. The reality of universal

According to the direct method, existence is an illusion.


The idea of existence in a body is an illusion and the idea that
we are born and that we are going to die is the illusion.
Therefore,weneverarebornandneverarewegoingtodie.
