It is not possible to to describe such a one who has realized, and has become the Reality. To conceive of this state is the highest achievement of our intelligence.
That knowledge which is cognizant of Brahman, which is all is the Supreme Knowledge. Nothing further remains to be learned.
The aspirants who study in such a way become Brahman. They attain this knowledge that is the pinnacle of intelligence, and the highest wisdom of the wisest person. They experience that there is nothing else but that one "Singular Existence".

When you understand yourself as the One dwelling in the hearts of all, you are the one who walks, you are the one who eats food, speaks, etc. Your experience is that you are that Power, and you have that "Authority".
Realize that you are the Self, the Life-Force in all. You and the sun, moon, and the stars are One. Your Life-Energy gives life to all. All move because of Your Power of Movement, they walk because of Your Life-Energy. You must be sure of this Power.

The Self is totally formless. That which is most subtle and most powerful knows all, yet, all the five elements do not know Him. The Self knows all. He is the knower. The Self is self-existent, and is not supported by anything.

What prevents us or pressures us at all times and everywhere in various forms is our own confusion or misunderstanding. There is no other distortion at all.

Desirelessness means to let go of that which only disappears anyway.
Attempts at giving up the pride for the body should be made as often as possible. Don't forget that the remarkable and rare can be accomplished only by doing something rare, and remarkably different from what others do.

Amrut Laya, Discourse 19
You have the power to call Illusion a myth, and determine that it is false. Maya has created something, and after Liberation, if you desire to create something, it is possible because of this creative power. As the world is imagined it is possible to modify it by our own imagination.

Never forget the brilliant truth that you are formless, clean, pure, and stainless. You must be steady in that contentment which remains unmoved by anything.

To attain 'The Absolute Truth', one should change the focus of one's thoughts; from 'Illusion to Reality'.
You have forgotten Paramartha; The Absolute Truth. You should turn your mind towards IT.
Forget Illusion.
One has only to understand that the world is 'untrue'; It should be seen as; 'a kingdom in a dream world'.
Even if you get the status of Indra; 'The Lord Of Heaven And Prosperity - it is still false.

The path of Knowledge should be understood by employing great skill. Desires may or may not be obstructive.
They are not obstructions for one who gets them when they do not particularly like them or long for them. However, the one who has strong likes and dislikes and cravings, and then gets desires, becomes displaced from his True Nature (Swaroopa).
It is in this way that one takes oneself to be an individual (jiva), and is thereby deprived of the bliss of their True Nature.

Let a person call you that which is most lowly, but be sure that you are God, and see what wonder takes place.
Once the inner judge has given the judgement that you are God, that judgement will never be changed.
That's all there is to it. Then you really become Paramatman.

Remember the Sadguru. This should be done all of the time, morning, noon, and evening. Remember, "I am Brahman", "I am Shiva", "I am He". The remembering should be constant as the clock that ticks. The heart in which Devotion to God is constant, is the moving, living temple. All can be liberated by the name Rama. Lord Mahadev (Shiva) himself escaped from the sense objects, through repetition of the sacred name of Rama.
Brahman is completely without pride. Therefore, any little pride in any experience, in any achievement, is worthless. It may even be a great good deed that the doer feels he has done, but Brahman does not touch it and does not respect it.
The dream within the dream is your thinking about what is Essential and what is non-essential, and when you realize that you are the Self, Atman, then you have this experience...
You felt that the world is illusory. You felt that you are awake and that it is your waking state. You felt that you have obtained 'experience,' but still, your confusion, your illusion, is persisting as it was. You are yet talking about things in the dream.
When there is true awakening, all the sense of 'being' disappears. Even the sense that you are the Self, also dissolves.

The devotee actually is God. What do you mean when you say that he has "become" God? The concept of "one's self" is an illusion. There is only One Self in the world. Regardless of whether you say serpent or scorpion, all are only Brahman. The world appearance consists of the five elements, and the one Self, and all of this is only God. This gives us the "Glory" of non-division, non-duality, and the non-worrying state, and all of this virtue is One, and it comes all at once. Illusion has taken our possession (that of knowing our True Identity). Therefore, we have become unhappy. The signs of the "Realization of Brahman" are the sense of peace, absence of anxiety, full contentment, and an extraordinary feeling of bliss. What is being experienced as joy or bliss within becomes evident in the organs, skin, and face. The peace and contentment which completely fills Consciousness will be expressed outwardly. In other words, the spreading of light out through the windows, from the lamp that is lit inside. The "Glory" is the absence of anxiety in the mental field.

The Bird's Way
The way of meditation is a long arduous path while the Bird's Way is a clear direct path of Self investigation, Self exploration, and using thought or concepts as an aid to understanding and Self-Realization. Sometimes this approach is also called the Reverse Path. What Reverse Path indicates is the turning around of one's attention away from objectivity to the more subjective sense of one's Beingness. With the Bird's Way, first one's mind must be made subtle. This is generally done with some initial meditation on a mantra or phrase which helps the aspirant to step beyond the mental/conceptual body, using a concept to go beyond conceptualization.

There should not be even an iota of the sense that 'I am the doer,' 'I have done,' 'I do,' etc.
There is a game of madness, and it was decided that you must keep on playing this game win or lose, pleasure or pain, and you must keep experiencing it. You call it pleasure, but it must be killed. There is real happiness in killing the enjoyment, but people keep up the imagination, which is really only suffering. If you have killed the enjoyment, that is good. However, the killer of enjoyment must also die.
When attention is diverted from the Self towards objects, that is called the beginning of the eclipse. That is the Illusion. That is mind.
Objects of the senses are tied like rope by desire which has its youth in the sense of "I".
Beingness means 'Consciousness', or 'Knowledge'. The mind attending to other things is called bondage. The mind when not attending to anything else, is Brahman. When there is no thinking about objects in the mind, the mind is clean, it is still. That is the state of Brahman.
One who constantly craves after sense objects is immersed in those objects, and one who meditates on the Self (Atman) becomes the Self. Do not say, 'I will meditate on God later. I will do it sometime later.' You should constantly meditate, contemplate, and let your mind dwell on the Self with great love for it.

Temporal life or worldliness means an attempt
to make oneself happy at the cost and sacrifice
of others, being totally indifferent to others
welfare and miseries. Your natural happiness is
not acquired by any effort or means. Temporary
things can only bring temporary happiness.
Knowing the Self brings Eternal happiness to all
because It is Eternal. In the temporal there is
endless misery and in the Self there is
boundless and unexcelled Eternal joy.
Paramartha means [1] to realise the Origin of
the whole universe, [2] to enjoy one's own
natural happiness without making any effort, [3]
to make all people similarly and equally happy,
and [4] the Perfection of Material Science. It is
the highest attainment of Absolute Reality.

The greatest evil habit is worldly life. It is called the "Great Addiction". By force of this addiction to worldly life, Paramatman is made to believe that He is an individual, and is compelled to live a worldly life as if in prison. All bad habits can be dropped, but the addiction to mundane life is the most difficult to drop. The wife is dear to her husband so long as she obeys him. The mundane worldly life is called the blindingly dark life. The greatest inticement of Illusion is this mundane life. However great may be one's sorrow, this addiction cannot be dropped. One is greatly lucky if this addiction is dropped. There is only one person who condemns the worldly life, and he is a Saint. Nobody else does that. One does not even think of this earthly life, even if one suffers the utmost difficulties. People try to strengthen their ties with others by speaking to them respectfully and congratulating each other over small things. People compete with each other for earning more honors and status. In this way, they feel that they are happy in life. They act as if this is a respectable bad habit. The God of Death is happy to give you many kinds of bodies and various troubles. Give up the sense of "mine". Know that the body is your enemy. Very few are those who have truly understood. Only those who are lucky enough to receive the blessings of the Guru, who is the Self, can escape from this Illusion by right efforts. All others are bound to the treadmill of life in various incarnations and they make houses of bodies of various shapes and duration.
