Spirituality is all about becoming empty of everything one knows. It is about becoming zero. But it is not as easy as said. We are generally filled with a lot of ideas, information, emotions, prejudice, etc which form our personality. This collectively assumes a shape and forms a personality. This personality appears to be aware of itself and will be operating as a self-aware entity. But it is like a moon glowing in the night. The moon may think it’s glowing by itself.
But the truth is without sun rays falling on it, the moon cannot glow itself. The same way the personality may think to be self-aware. But it is the impersonal awareness that is omnipresent which is operating within. This false personality cannot see it and assume it being aware of itself as this limited personality is never complete by itself.
When the earth comes in between the moon and sun only then we can see that the moon is not glowing by itself. Same way, when a problem comes in one’s life they will know that they are not that false personality. When subjected to severe problems, the personality breaks, and dissolves and then it comes to the knowledge that I am only an awareness. And I have acquired all these ideas from
perceiving things around me.
And it became a reality because the information received from my senses repeatedly being consistent with my knowledge. This discovery is of paramount importance where it changes the whole being. This discovery is the beginning of moving towards zero and accumulating his own experience as knowledge and strength.
