Brahman satyam jaganmithyA. Brahman is Truth, the world is unreal.
Do not succumb to name and form. Brainwash your lower self of names and forms and see everyone and everything as the One pure Consciousness. It is possible. It is the truth.
Particularization is a combination of rAjasic and tAmasic thinking- cf BG 18.21 and 18.22. No two.
पृथक्त्वेन तु यज्ज्ञानं नानाभावान्पृथग्विधान् ।
वेत्ति सर्वेषु भूतेषु तज्ज्ञानं विद्धि राजसम् ॥१८.२१
But that knowledge which, by differentiation, sees in all of Creation various entities of distinct kinds, that knowledge know as rAjasic.
यत्तु कृत्स्नवदेकस्मिन्कार्ये सक्तमहैतुकम् ।
अतत्त्वार्थवदल्पं च तत्तामसमुदाहृतम् ॥१८.२२
But that which clings to one single effect as if it were all, without reason, having no real object, and narrow, that is described to be tAmasic.
Who can say what about whom? What imaginary advice can one illusion give about another?
Actions are merely the result of guNas playing with the guNas.
Depending on the predominant guNa, the fruit is accordingly so: rajas leads to pain, tamas to ignorance, sattva to illumination.
