Course XXX - Teaching 3: Concept of Philosophy about Being and Non-being

The Philosophy of Being and Non-Being is pure expression of the abstract idea of the Aryan Race.
This Philosophy is based on the idea of Absolute Unity as the fundamental law.
Manifestation is illusory: a play of lights filtered through the net of knowledge, producing the illusion of existence.
There is only one true thing: the Eternal, Non-Manifested, Ever-Existent Spirit.
All is illusion, except Him.
While these Philosophers recognize that it is impossible to reflect about the Non-Manifested One, they try to define it by negative affirmations, but forming a concept of the Non-Manifested One as expression of a unique reality.
This reality is all. The very soul is just the Eternal One. There are not individual souls; as soon as one removes the net of illusion by means of the Absolute Realization, the idea of separateness disappears and just the Eternal One exists.
Therefore, these Philosophers refused to reflect about Manifestation and only tried to reflect and reach the Realization.
Unlike the philosophy of those who continued this doctrine that in their childish view Manifestation was a play of God, Philosophers refused to reflect about this and said only the Eternal One could know the reason for Manifestation.
Here are the Postulates of this Philosophy: All is illusion; the Eternal One is the Only Reality; knowledge of this Unique Truth is the basic idea to achieve liberation.
To reach this Unique Idea a Philosopher needed to be detached from other ideas and he arrived in stages at this high mental state.
The first stage was to teach the student the value of thought. All thoughts are bad, but thought in itself is good. Multiple thoughts are an obstacle, but one thought can be the fundament of liberation. In the Universe all is Eternal and Illusory.
Control of thought and conquest of the Unique Idea lead a soul to be re-integrated into the Primary Essence.
The student has to know that “You are not you” but “You are it”; first you shall say it, later you shall understand it, and finally you shall be it.
This way of thinking led the student to reject any useless thought; at the same time led him to the mistake of neglecting the study of natural sciences, but he would acquire an extraordinary mental clarity; he would know how to analyze every thought and how to explain its value. No mental corner was unknown to him.
In the second stage of study, these students tried to strengthening the concept of Unique Idea: the thought that they were integral part of God after the great mental renunciation.
They had formed a whole theology on the Eternal value of the Unique Idea in order to affirm this Unique Idea.
This philosophy that they expounded extraordinarily moved their followers away from the world of the reality.
In the third stage, the student did not feel as such, but a Realized being.
The idea of the Absolute One filled all his mind and being, and nothing existed except This.
